From the Wall Street Journal: "It’s never going to happen—probably not even in Denmark—but employers ought to encourage their workers to visit cultural institutions on company time."
"What's this, Johnson, you still here? It's nearly noon, you know."
"You ought to be out on your way to the new Renoir show!"
"Never mind the spreadsheets or the power point display;"
"You need a dose of culture -- off you go to watch ballet!"
"Take my car, if need be, to the blue grass jamboree."
"And don't come back until you've taken workshop poetry."
"HR is insistent that the staff be trained to note"
"the nuances of ev'ry single blessed Shakespeare quote."
"And while you're at it don't forget to take a cooking class;"
"or at least learn how to brew authentic beetroot kvass."
"Once the company has got you trained in all the arts"
"you'll be ready to go sell our brand of auto parts!"
