f you have ever gone through a toll booth, you know that your relationship to
the person in the booth is not the most intimate you'll ever have. It is one
of life's frequent nonencounters: You hand over some money; you might get
change; you drive off.

Late one morning in 1984, headed for lunch in San Francisco, I drove toward a
booth. I heard loud music. It sounded like a party. I looked around. No other
cars with their windows open. No sound trucks. I looked at the toll booth.
Inside it, the man was dancing.

"What are you doing?" I asked.

"I'm having a party," he said.

"What about the rest of the people?" I looked at the other toll booths.

He said, "What do those look like to you?" He pointed down the row of toll booths.

"They look like...toll booths. What do they look like to you?"

He said, "Vertical coffins. At 8:30 every morning, live people get in. Then
they die for eight hours. At 4:30, like Lazarus from the dead, they reemerge
and go home. For eight hours, brain is on hold, dead on the job. Going through
the motions."

I was amazed. This guy had developed a philosophy, a mythology about his job.
Sixteen people dead on the job, and the seventeenth, in precisely the same
situation, figures out a way to live. I could not help asking the next
question: "Why is it different for you? You're having a good time."

He looked at me. "I knew you were going to ask that. I don't understand why
anybody would think my job is boring. I have a corner office, glass on all
sides. I can see the Golden Gate, San Francisco, and the Berkeley hills. Half
the Western world vacations here...and I just stroll in every day and practice
dancing."

          wlasnie odwrotnie
          pewnie nie jestes inteligentny



          Intelligence tests are often used by employers to weed out brainless
          job candidates, but an increasing number of UK companies use a test
          designed to identify candidates who are too smart. The idea behind
          the Wonderlic Personnel Test is that people can be too stupid or too
          bright for a job. If too bright, they might become bored and leave,
          or they might spread a mood of frustration and disenchantment
          throughout the workplace.

          Employers who use the Wonderlic test take the threat of over-
          intelligent workers very seriously. For example, many US police
          force job applicants have been rejected for scoring too highly in
          the test (one applicant sued in federal court for unfair
          disqualification).

          The extensive use of the Wonderlic test (it’s the world’s most
          widely used employee intelligence test) has a sinister implication.
          The corporate world seems fully aware that most jobs require
          relatively low intelligence. High intelligence is seen as a
          hindrance, because there’s no way that intelligent people would
          tolerate 40 hours of tedious monotony every week. It follows that
          full employment – the holy grail of conservative politicians – would
          require low intelligence in most of the population. But the only
          guaranteed way to achieve this is mass lobotomy.
