management n.

1. Corporate power elites distinguished primarily by their

distance from actual productive work and their chronic failure to

manage (see also suit). Spoken

derisively, as in "Management decided that

...". 2. Mythically, a vast bureaucracy

responsible for all the world's minor irritations. Hackers'

satirical public notices are often signed `The Mgt'; this derives

from the "Illuminatus" novels (see the Bibliography in Appendix C).
