speaking of doing the work, something that will always amaze me is how an organization--say, a university--will immediately fall to pieces if the janitorial or food service staff take time off, yet can operate for years with "interim" or simply no provosts/presidents/etc.

we can't afford to let the janitors take a vacation, because they clean up bags of toxic sludge, but chancellor bossman...oh, he can lay low for the next few months/years/decades and we'll manage.

it is honestly far, far more important to nail down the PTO schedule at the campus convenience store than to determine the whereabouts of chancellor bossman at any given week or month or year in time. without someone at that cash register, who knows what will happen?
