The VIRGO Employee
"When you say 'hill,' " the Queen interrupted, "I could show you hills,in comparison with which you'd call that a valley." "A hill can't be a valley, you know.
That would be nonsense-"The Red Queen shook her head. "You may call it 'nonsense' if you like," she said, "But I've heard nonsense, compared with which ' that would be as sensible as a dictionaryl"
If you have a Virgo employee who's a typical Virginian, treasure him (or her) and plan, slowly and carefully, to mnvp. him to the position of your assistant. Don't do it too quickly or hell feel unprepared and reluctant. Fast ad vances don't tickle the Virgo ego, they just alarm him and make him suspect that you're too impulsive for him to trust.
You needn't shower this employee with bonuses. On the other hand, don't underpay him either. He's well aware of his comparable and current market value, and he won't hesitate to move on, regardless of his basic loyalty and stability, if he feels you're being unfair or unreasonable. It's been said that Virgos give service without thought of reward, which has created a bit of a problem in semantics. It's more accurate to say that they give service without thought of personal ego gratification (though they secretly desire this more than they let on). The Virgo employee fully expects to be paid for his efforts, because money is important to him. It's not the cash itself as a status symbol, nor the Cancerian desire to accumulate that motivates him. It's his inbred fear of going on relief someday when he's old and sick and feeble and forced to depend on others. The very thought of such a situation gives the typical Virgo goose bumps. He'll probably be far healthier in his old age than most of the other zodiac signs. Though often weak in childhood, Virgo gathers physical strength as the years advance. Still he'll secretly worry about his health and his financial future. The legend of Virgo is found in the Greek myth of Creation. The story goes that before men or animals lived on earth, a race of giants, called titans, ruled the world. Two titan brothers, Prome theus and Epimetheus, were given the task of creating human beings and animals.
When this was done, Epimetheus set about giving various gifts to the animals-wings to one kind, claws to another, etc. He was so generous that when it came time to dispense something to mankind, he had nothing left to give, so he asked Prometheus for help.
Prometheus went into heaven and came back with the gift of fire. This made man superior to other species, for with fire he could keep warm,make tools, and eventually develop commerce and science.
Jupiter, chief of gods, became so angry at the gods's secret of fire being given to man that he bound Prometheus to a rock on Mount Caucasus where an eagle constantly tore at his liver, though never entirely consuming it. He also sent a curse to earth-brought by the first woman. Her name was Pandora, meaning "a gift of all the gods." Pandora brought with her a box, which she was told never to open. One day, seized with curiosity, she lifted the lid of the box. Out sprang terrible plagues to haunt mankind forever after: sickness and death for the body; anger, envy, and revenge for the mind. At the bottom of the box lay the one thing that had not escaped, hope.
During the terrible times that followed, the gods deserted earth one by one and went to live in heaven. The very last to leave was Astraea, goddess of innocence and purity. After leaving the earth, Astraea was placed among the stars and became the constellation of Virgo. The legend is that one day the Golden Age will come again, and that Astraea (Virgo) will return to earth.
