Today I started training at my new job. We were only there for a few hours today while the managers and trainers introduced themselves and talked about the job. One particularly gung-ho manager got up, introduced himsellf, and asked,

"How many of you have heard of ambiguity?"

A few hands went up and I thought to myself, "Is this some lame postmodernism joke?"

It was not. He went on to explain, "It means you can do things with both hands, or it means you can deal with lots of stuff at the same time. A lot like working here."

Needless to say, I feel a little ambivalent about working at this place.

When I was a kid, my left-handed father would joke, "Well, really I'm ambidextrous; I mess up with either hand." Now I wonder if Dad came up with that on his own or lifted it from some Borscht Belt comedian.
