Their employees on their website remind me of the Stepford Wives. Kind of android like, with an attitude that no ass is too big to kiss to get the mission accomplished. What ever the hell that mission might be, they are up to it. Also reminds me why I would never want to work in that cubicle. Corporatocracy for sure. Makes my skin crawl, seems like individuality makes way for corporate identity. YUK ! But yes interesting in a similar way that scratching your finger nails across a chalk board might be, even though my analogy breaks down at some point I'm sure.
I have to laugh when I read the description on their website…. they tout "best practices" in rebuilding iraq, implementing Obama Care, and building websites blah blah blah blah blah. Say what is the best practice in bombing the shit out of a country and rebuilding it anyway? And are there measurable parameters to hold up as the "Standard of Care" in the community in regards to such an (ambitious?) endeavor? Ay yi yi. Seems like the same old corporate palaver at tax payer expense most likely.
Reminds me of a movie I saw about a novel approach to advertising…. to be truthful. For example for selling a Volvo automobile they might say in the advertisement; "Looks like a refrigerator on wheels, boxy looking, but safe". Here I wish they would do the same, but instead under their heading for Healthcare, they state, they; "do it all…. for the patient"….sounds easy to put all these saccharin sweet descriptions online but not see easy to implement on such a grand scale in practice. Just doesn't strike me as an honest assessment for some reason. Sounds too good to be true. (Strikes me as BS). There I said it.
Self aggrandizing BS. Remember the commercials about the chemical company BASF? Something like; "At BASF we don't make the ski's we make them faster, we don't make the paint we make it brighter" Well I JUST IMAGINE that Serco looks like they can brag "we don't make the FEMA camps, we make them more comfortable". "We don't make the depleted uranium tank killers, we just clean up after them". We don't cause the Iraqi birth defects we just reduce them". We don't make the airport scanners we just license them and get royalties….and we do this all for American Freedom ! My imagination runs wild sorry.
