The fact that we only have "Herculean task" and "Sisyphean task" feels so limiting. So here's a few more tasks for your repertoire:

I liked these an awful lot, and I thought the smart folks on the Rands Leadership Slack would, too, so I posted them there, referencing the original MWDC posts.

This is the brilliance of those folks, not me, and all accolades are due them. Only one of these is my own original thought. The rest come from the minds of smarter, more creative (and apparently better read) people...

Contributors (who wished to be identified) include Blaise Vignon, Caleb Huitt, Steven Harrison and Michael Van Nieuwenhoven. Thank you all, smart and funny people!
