Following the unprecedented success of the first edition of my much appreciated Corporate Calling series, I present to you the highly anticipated sequel, Corporate Calling: The Quintessential Parvenu.
They say life is a joke that very few people can afford to enjoy. But, the sad part is that ever fewer realize its true importance. As one climbs up the ladder, one encounters a whole bunch of different individuals. While some want fame, others want money; some have a liking for glamour, while others have an eye for voyeur. Yet, there are some whose want exceed not only their grasp but also their imagination. They are insatiable, for they want virtually anything and everything. Such species of quintessential parasites is termed as the The Quintessential Parvenu.
The Quintessential Parvenu, a dangerous creature oozing with malice and arrogance, has nothing but contempt for fellow human beings. His comfort at deceiving his peers, and his uncanny ability to bend the rules helps him attain new heights in almost no time. There are not many who are aware of his obscure past. His mastery over deception makes him more lethal than a viper. Like a rattler, he can strike from both the ends, and often does. He is a paragon of desperation. His apparent sense of superiority is a facade to hide his grave sense of inferiority, and that's what makes him fallible, but yet he's difficult to dispose, for he's not afraid to stab you in the back, and he'll do it with ridiculous ease and utter lack of compassion. He is the incarnation of Evil, and yet he would be the first one to portray himself as an Angel in front of those who he want to impress.
The Quintessential Parvenu is a wolf in sheep's clothing, a venom that has no anti-dote, a disease that has no vaccine. He is like a malignant tumor that refuses to be cured. He is a parasite of the highest order, for he knows whom to exploit and how. His ways are vitriolic and his style silken. He is both vengeful and unforgiving, and hates the guts of others. He is good at identifying his soft targets, and can enslave them on a mere whim, and they remain enslaved for a long time to come. The Quintessential Parvenu is a shameless creature who knows no bounds. Like a true fanatic, he is always concealing a secret and a doubt; secret that, if disclosed, could shake the very roots of his existence, and a perpetual doubt in his own abilities that often makes him ruin the lives of others out of a mere sense of insecurity.
The Quintessential Parvenu is an illegitimate heir to a disputed crown. He is a certified sadomasochist, who enjoys the after-thought more than the activity itself. He is incorrigible villain, a contemptuous reprobate who is both pitied and despised, more pitied than despised.
But, since the great leveler, the wheel of fortune is unbiased, and acts completely of its own accord, nothing is guaranteed in the world of great highs and lows. What goes around, comes around! It doesn't take long for the hunter to become the hunted, for time is a master trickster. The higher one climbs, the more fatal is the fall. Alas, The Quintessential Parvenu often fails to realize that change is the only consistency in life! Once he is down, he must be delivered a knockout punch, for there is no wisdom in being bitten by the same scorpion over and over again. The courage to fight such a diabolical spirit can only come from within, and so one should not give up until the evil has been obliterated and the order has been restored.
Always remember, those who have the power also have the responsibility to fight anarchy and injustice!
