Dilbert and the way of the weasel ii

Technology demo

If you need to do a demonstration of your company's products so suckers will buy it, you'll need some weasel tricks to pull it off. As you know, your products are much worse than your ads claim and will only work under the narrowest of contrived conditions. You'll need to rig everything about the demo, starting with the room itself. Make sure the temperature, windchill factor, lighting, ambient noise, and floor vibrations are carefully controlled. The slightest imperfection in any of those factors could cause your product to break into shards and impale potential buyers. As a general rule, when people are impaled by a product, it makes them less likely to become repeat customers.
