Here’s Your Hat, What’s Your Hurry?
People treat "the great resignation" (a stupid name) as if it's an unavoidable meteorological event, or a losing football game. What it actually represents is people leaving bad bosses, and management unable or unwilling to provide recognition for talent and
The Extinction of Privacy
Most people talk too loud on their smart phones, and everyone nearby can hear the conversation (and sometimes the other person's response). The same is true of social media. Talk too "loud" on Facebook and people will hear what you
