So, for example, Kenny and I have an entire week to finish this Parkinson's Law segment.
Probably, yeah.
But we have a whole week.
So that means we're probably going to spend time like looking for archival tape that we're probably not going to use.
But today we're going to try to use Parkinson's law to help get this done.
Archival tape?
No, you actually brought us archival tape?
That should be Planet Money's slogan.
I feel like that's what we're going for.
Like how much money do we have in our pockets?
Empty your pockets.
Turn them out.
I don't even have my wallet with me.
Alexi, you did it.
You finished the task at hand in one day instead of a week.
Better.
Hooray!
Okay, the next law is called the Peter Principle.
This one says that in a hierarchy, every employee tends to rise to their level of incompetence.
If you're good at your job, your boss notices, promotes you, and then if you're good at that job, it happens again, and you keep getting promoted until you get promoted to a job that you are not good at.
