Peace Sam,

One of my favorite quotes from 1984 is how Orwell describes Parsons.

“Parsons was a colleague of Winston's in the Ministry of Truth. He was a plump but active man, paralyzing stupidity, a heap of imbecile enthusiasm, one of those devout slaves who question nothing and on whom, more than on the Thought Police, rested stability of the party.”

Working in a few big organizations I certainly have come across a few characters like Parsons.
