The I in Team; by The Managing Editor; From Volume CLXVI, Number 4, of Speculative Grammarian, March 2013 — The writers of business books, corporate cheerleaders in HR, and other reprobates like to say that “There is no I in team,” meaning, of course, that every team member should put aside their own ego and pull for the common good. It’s a lovely sentiment—if you prefer your sentiments with a healthy dose of treacle—but it is, among many other unpleasant characteristics, ambiguous. (Read by Trey Jones.)
