    Priceless.

    We lost a hero. He had F-You money, and they forced him to use it!

    Unfortunately, he did NOT LISTEN and got Vaxxed. The good news is he acknowledged his mistake. And he even said ~"Now... We are in an interesting position where NOBODY who refused the vaxx has any regrets... But those who didn't do!"

    Great guy. Huge contribution! When I worked at General Dynamics, we got an idea turned into one of his comics and a thank you. “It is time to Trashercise”

    They think they are.
    Semi-retired, for a few years I chased the better paycheck (easy to do with my background) by working for various security guard companies. Trained for a first week when I joined Wackenhut for a couple of years, I was told "Perception is everything." For example, if you're looking down reading something at a desk, a newcomer may think your eyes are closed and sleeping on the job. Here's another from my own experience. An approaching businessman briefly sneers for catching sight of myself. Why? My security guard uniform make he's way better than me. Guess what I think of him while being professionally polite?

    I wrote to the editor of the San Jose (Silicon Valley) Mercury News to end the virtue signaling and run all the "Dilbert" comic strips they have been depriving their readers for years.

    That thought is correct. When I was working at Prime Computer (now very long ago) my manager discovered that his most important job was to deflect the people that got in the way of our department's work. For example, we had been told that company policy was to solve problems at the lowest level and only to escalate unresolvable issues. The manager of another department said, "I don't want you talking to my people. Everything must go through ME!" Our manager took that problem up another level and got it fixed. He also reached up and fixed the company policy in which all accounts payable were pushed out 90 days whenever possible. Our department's artist (on 1099, not an employee) was starving as a result. Right to the top! Fixed!

    As Scott said about the Dilbert strip, people often told him, "You work as MY company, right?" Dilbert's problems were at many companies.

    Dilbert used to be my favorite comic strip but who am I a retired prison guard to object to all of those who would be my betters for shutting it down?
    Wonder why I chose to stick my tongue into my left cheek and not my right one.

    RIP to one who spoke his mind and was censored for it by those who consistently lie.

    I'm slowly becoming a convert to the principle that you can't motivate people to do things, you can only demotivate them. The primary job of the manager is not to empower but to remove obstacles.
