- azernik 7y agoIn the former case, the answer is to change your own behavior. The sentence structure is a bit confusing, but I interpreted that last clause as referring only to the latter case (surrounded by recklessness).
- HarryHirsch 7y agoFrom her other posts on her blog, it's clear that she means that her managers consider her a problem because when she predicts trouble she is usually right. When you continuously play Cassandra it gets tiring for everyone involved, Cassandra, her manager and the audience viewing the spectacle. Time to find a new job.
- marcinzm 7y agoThe flip question is always, how often was Cassandra wrong? We're after all seeing one side here. A perfect Cassandra is potentially useful, a trigger happy Cassandra is just annoying. Even a perfect Cassandra can be annoying if the issues in the end cause minimal monetary fallout.
