Lanyard
I did a course.
I know about things.
I am a somebody of importance
(which, by implication, means you’re not).
I am part of the bigger picture.
I can see the wood for the trees.
I have the authorisation to open doors,
access files
(and stationary),
go behind the desk.
I feel safe and confident.
I have the power to make a difference.
I have the authority to tell you how it is for you.
I have the right to use the tea and coffee facilities
(I can get you one if you’d like?).
I know about things.
I did a course.
