We Have to Make the Operating Model Work

A phrase often said by a person, usually a person in a management role, who requires specific tasks to be completed but does not have the knowledge or skill set to complete the task his or herself.
A head chef was hired despite having no cooking experience and told me to cook a new chicken platter. When I asked at what temperature should I cook the chicken, the chef replied "We Have to Make the Operating Model Work."

I was given a task to build a gingerbread house with only a dirty q-tip and a used condom. When I asked my manager in what fucked up world this makes any sense, he replied "We Have to Make the Operating Model Work."

Work For Love

You said you needed full time help
'cause you're all alone
I said I'd work for nothing at all
If I just could take you home
And now you're taking applications
For your love
You wanted certain specifications
I circled the one that said all the above
Work... for love
Finally got my resume
And you said you'd reviewed it some other day
I said, 'girl, hey, do it if you dare
Where I'd like to go our love will flare'
Finally my letter arrived
And I knew you would be mine
Instead I had to prove my turf
For the first two weeks work overtime
Work... for love
You've got to work
You've got to work for love

Did that work?

Did you figure out how to make it better immediately or do you need me to...
Hym "I mean, yeah, I thought of a way immediately but you never got back to me. Did you figure it out or no? And when I said 'Did that work?' I knew the answer. The question was rhetorical."

doing the lords work

Changing the world like you change the toilet paper role with one good deed at a time is doing the lord’s work.

When you do what Jesus would do because somebody’s gotta do it.
I guess I will be doing the lords work and take one for the team so you can get laid.
