Years ago, when I worked for a small firm that later became the
nuclear instrument division of Beckman Instruments, I found a
cartoon pasted to my office door.  It showed a pair of button-down
types watching an overweight slob with a coffee cup and a messy
cigarette dangling from his lips wander by.  The caption said

"I know.  Unfortunately, he's indispensible."

I was really flattered.
