There are only four types of officer.

First, there are the lazy, stupid ones. Leave them alone, they do no harm…

Second, there are the hard-working, intelligent ones. They make excellent staff officers, ensuring that every detail is properly considered.

Third, there are the hard-working, stupid ones. These people are a menace and must be fired at once. They create irrelevant work for everybody.

Finally, there are the intelligent, lazy ones. They are suited for the highest office.

I need to re-write that one a bit, to suit State Employees...

( In the re-writing, the stupid lazy ones are destined to become Commissioners and Directors... )

Jamie, You work for the state too?

[Guest Jamie]

Used to. Wife still does.

She has a higher tolerance for stupidity than I do.
