We’re almost at the end of our Compliance Monster hunt, and I have to admit: I wasn’t totally ready for everything that’s happened along the way. We had some close calls with Mr. Snap, Tedium, and the Spreadsheet Eater, but after the events of last week—when Malaise actually wormed her way into our blog—I’ve been […]
The Spreadsheet Eater? Check. Tedium? Check. Mr. Snap? Check. We’re halfway down the list of Compliance Monsters and, despite a few close calls (those binder rings are sharper than they look) the process has actually been pretty straightforward: remove the underlying source of the monster and the monster will go away.

It’s almost October again, that time of year when the boundaries start to blur—between day and night, between growth and decay, between our world and the world that lies […]
It’s that time of year again: the time when the Compliance Monsters emerge from the shadows and invade our world. Actually, there’s always a chance they could be sneaking behind your shelves, hovering over your meetings or hiding beneath your desk. But this month is the month they dare to reveal themselves—and this October, they’re […]
