Ummm, how about telling your boss what you're thinking?

I have fallen into this trap so many times. We fuss and fume and wring our hands, make lists "pro" and "con," decide what's more important to us (friends, family, commute, loyalty, cool new technology, money, work hours)...and then decide and then and only then we tell those affected.

Why not tell your boss everything you've written to Cary about? You can explain the situation. Chances are that he knows the products aren't doing that well, that good talent is being recruiting by other folks, etc....

By discussing with him your situation and concerns, you just might find a third way, or discover some other truth about yourself, a truth which might remain hidden if you dwell and decide in solitude.

I know why you don't talk to the boss. For the same reason I haven't in the past.

Because we are afraid of having to share our decisions and losing our power. All is really means is that you have to defend your decisions and thinking in real-time, instead of after the fact.

Well, Bucko, one way or another, the ship you're on is going down and to paraphrase Preserved Killick, "It's time to get back to barky, because this one is sinking...."

Talk to him....

Original article: Scooter's tragic innocence

And he did this because

Hmmmm

Let me see

Oh, maybe it's because he was able to raise $5M for his legal defense fund, with an open-ended financial spigot undoubtably waiting....

Hmm. Loyalty for money.


Not the first innocent to make that trade


Not so interesting either....



yawn...
