Myopia Prize.

Eldest Sunmouse has been correcting his vision for a while now. By eye exercises he’s managed to improve it so much that the last optician he saw simply wouldn’t accept his prescription used to be so bad. But opticians deal in optics and the human eye is a sqwigy cognitive/muscular device affected by emotions and learnt muscular behaviour, rather like posture. As we talked it was interesting how his astigmatism was reflected in is general outlook of focusing on peripheral anxieties rather than on the central core of his momentary concern. So, like schizophrenics with multiple personalities have been found to have different prescriptions for each personality, maybe opticians are trying to counter personality issues with a lens. Anyway how about this for an incentive scheme. Being pleased with a colleague’s eagerness to work all hours God sends and jeopardise his health and relationships, his boss wanted to show his appreciation and hit on this amazing reward for all that selfless effort. He offered the guy a ride in his new Mazaratti sports car. Yes this poor sap could sample for thirty minutes the fruits of all his hard work that has been siphoned off by his boss to buy his current plaything. How’s that for incentivising your workforce? I wonder what prescription his glasses are.
