management

   1.  Corporate  power elites distinguished primarily by their distance
   from  actual productive work and their chronic failure to manage (see
   also {suit}). Spoken derisively, as in "Management decided that ...".

   2.  Mythically,  a  vast  bureaucracy responsible for all the world's
   minor irritations. Hackers' satirical public notices are often signed
   `The  Mgt';  this  derives  from  the  Illuminatus  novels  (see  the
   Bibliography in Appendix C).
