RKS Literature: Not Having the Right Stuff to be an Executive (Kurt Vonnegut Jr.)

“Both were lighthearted, undaunted by ambition as they sauntered along the factory gate, outside of which was the Acme Grill. It had been made clear to both of them that they didn’t have the priceless stuff of which executives were made. So, unlike so many wide-eyed and hustling men all around them, they were to dress comfortably and inexpensively, and go out for coffee as often as they pleased.”
