Minion advice

Rule #25 of The Supervillain's Guide to Super Villainy:

• Make sure that your minions are reliable, loyal, trustworthy and consistent. And especially make sure that they understand the Plan and their role in it!
  

Nobody wants minions that change their alliance as often as they change their shoes. Consistency is key and a minion who sticks to the plan and isn't easily distracted from it, is worth keeping. Unfortunately, good help is hard to find these days.
You also want to be very careful of minions that are too smart. You can't have them hijacking your plan for world domination, executing it effortlessly and claiming all the infamy! But you can't have minions that are too stupid to even understand the plan. Years of watching lame American movies and bad sitcoms, have taught me that dumb minions, only cause trouble for you. And I've had my fair share of dumb minions around...
So remember, pick your minions wisely. You don't want to be associated with idiots!
