People at the top do not work long hours and they do not work
short hours. They simply have a pervasive different quality of life
("categorial structure") whatever
its nominal content area ("regional ontology") at any given moment.
If Bush works short hours, that could become the litmus
test for employees. Any employee who shows the lack of
appreciation for social differences to propose that
they should have the same amenities of life as
are the birthright of those who "live in the great [I meant:
White", of course...] house"
obviously needs to come to the attention of the
"human resources" department in such a way that
the referral leaves no audit trail.
