THE ALTERNATIVE

THE ALTERNATIVE

            “What is the alternative?” The Boss thus thundered! He had his reason. And the stare allowed no room for anything other than an abject surrender by nay saying! When the question is differently put, the uniformity of ayes is equally striking. Seven brains seem wired to his and the conduction is uni-directional. He is the domineering kind. He sets the goals and browbeats his men to achieve it as well as he wishes. There is no gainsaying for anything less!

            Outside his domain, the alternatives are plentiful! He scoffs, but only before himself, at the chaos of too many ego-driven people trying to do one thing in many different ways. He watches several such examples every day and he grows more certain that there is no alternative. He also cannot see it another way!

Thus, he continues to call the shots with a scorn and a swagger!
