The Joke That Turned Out to Be True

About this template

A 14-minute talk on the Peter Principle: written in 1969 as satire, turned down by thirty publishers, and tested decades later on the sales records of nearly 39,000 people. The joke turned out to be true, and the part it got wrong is the interesting part. With one live choice, a surprising sergeant and a kind ending. Everything to say is in the speaker notes.
