The qualities that make one a good worker do not make for a good CEO. A good worker thinks the best way to make money is to produce better quality product or produce it more efficiently.

A good CEO thinks the best way to make money is to lay off quality control and use their salaries to buy up company stock to increase the stock price for shareholders knowing the increase is instantaneous while the problems caused by not having quality control anymore won't be realized for months if not years. Even better if they can force employees who didn't do quality control to now be responsible for it, on top of their regular duties, while receiving no additional pay.

Our profession

Gonna stop you right there Jeff. You're not a journalist.

The requirement for a steady paycheque is what keeps everyone working in terrible conditions. I'm lucky enough that I've always had a lot in savings and it has come in handy a few times. Twice I've walked off a job and never went back after failing to negotiate proper working conditions with the boss. Both times I burned through about $10,000 in savings while searching for a new job. Almost nobody has that much saved up. If they did, terrible bosses would lose employees on the regular.

resistance is futile

Superconductors don't offer much resistance.

I didn't downvote but personally I'm not sure what's dystopian about fewer people reading long, dense books and choosing to consume other, shorter media instead. It's like saying less people watching opera is dystopian. What's the problem with a medium becoming unpopular?

"Fake it till you make it" doesn't mean pretend to be happy until you are happy. I committed to a relationship I wasn't happy in, a career I wasn't happy in, and hobbies I wasn't happy doing, all because I wanted the approval of others. A divorce, career change, and hobby swap made me much happier.

These headlines keep saying $90 mount but it's basically "$90 access the mailbox and auction house from anywhere, and also get a mount".
