From Barmy in Wonderland, by P. G. Wodehouse
DESK CLERK
"He had long realized that he was not a man of exceptional gifts, being rather one of the multitude who are dashed lucky to land a job of any kind and priceless asses if they do not stick to that job like glue. Fate had made him a desk clerk, and a desk clerk he must continue to be."
From Chapter 3
Love it--can you believe I've never read Wodehouse?
