You're 24 and you think like this? If you don't sort out your thinking, you are headed for a miserable existence. Read the stoics, help people, visit a senior centre, get out of your head. You are a pup so your flawed thinking is forgivable and even expected. That youth is wasted on the young used to seem trite to me but when I read stuff like this I nod at that saying in sad agreement.

Edit: I will add that I'm 46, at what is statistically the nadir of contentment. I think about my aging every day and have to reconcile it with gratitude...this is how all things are reconciled.


Yikes...kindle edition in Canada is $30.


That price is a microaggression! Respect readers!


Nope.


It's unfortunate that instead of encouraging (or forcing) these lazy employees to shape up and get better at working from home, they make them come in to the office...cluttering roads and fouling the air (assuming they drive cars, of course). Remote working can function wonderfully but you need the right tools and the right people.


Yeah, very poor choice of words. The writer must not know what it means as the effects of "investment in education, healthcare and retirement" are really the opposite of 'pernicious'.


Can we please mark these as satire in the headline so we don't waste our time if we aren't in the mood?


This is why I always click on the comments before the link.


I agree...though one must admit it has a clever ring to it. :)


Are the sales and marketing departments using the CMS?

Talk to the content managers and people that will be using it every day. Ease of use is key in a CMS. Most enterprise CMS will have functional parity but vastly different UX/UI.


Are your beliefs faith based or based on something else? Honestly curious.


Yep. Please fix the title. Very misleading and much less interesting. I know in the US many restaurant workers get well under minimum wage as it is expected that tips will bring the wage up to minimum so I thought this was just taken to it's logical conclusion that people would pay to work in places where they can earn a lot in tips.
