A cautionary tale
I received a leaflet from the University's Institute of Continuing Studies. It tells the tragic story of ambition gone wrong.
It started out so well. The classes, acquiring management experience. Founding his own business, using his newly-found notary skills.
But then, a patch of bad luck. The Incident. Mangled bodies everywhere. The many grieving relatives. The many grieving relatives getting kidnapped. The negotiations for their release. The dispute over the media rights, culminating in a massive legal battle. His life, in ruins.
If only he'd stayed at home.
