Proof of the Existence of God: No. 94

Proof of the existence of a deus absconditus from the existence of the modern labour market. “Please send your c.v. by paper aeroplane or arrive at the interview, which we are granting you for your sake, with a succinct statement of purpose tattooed on any exposed part of your body, except your foot, which, in answer to our questions, you will shoot yourself in using a firearm provided. . . The company accepts no liability, etc. It is answerable (in a sense, undetermined) to the government, which is answerable to the people (in a sense, un-derided), which is answerable to its Id (collective, individual), which derives grim satisfaction from your pain, turns cartwheels when you get your rocks off and has none of the other attributes of God either. The latter has definitely left the building. How could things have got this badly out of control otherwise?!” Q.E.D.
