3. How the finance director thinks
‘Our experts describe you as an appallingly dull fellow, unimaginative, timid, lacking in initiative, spineless, easily dominated, no sense of humour, tedious company and irrepressibly drab and awful. And whereas in most professions these would be considered drawbacks, in ... accountancy they are a positive boon.’
—John Cleese, Graham Chapman, Terry Jones, Michael Palin and Eric Idle(Now for Something Completely Different, 1971)
