This is a self-defeating attitude.
It sucks sometimes, but we have to deal with the world as it actually is, not how we wish it to be.
When it comes down to it, the universe doesn’t give a shit about our opinions :)
- b20000 5y agowith your attitude everyone would still be shoveling shit somewhere in a coal mine.
- Jensson 5y agoThe "talk about a project" is the coal mine though, what we have now is the evolution of that.
- dwaltrip 5y agoI may not have communicated as clearly as I could have. I’m not saying mindlessly accept a shitty deal. I’m saying that wishful thinking such as “it shouldn’t be this way and I’m going to pretend it isn’t” is not very helpful. If you can turn such thinking into a useful action that leads toward the outcome you want or a general improvement, then that is great. But that isn’t always easy to do. Sometimes you have to deal with bullshit because the result is worth it. Or choose another path entirely, realizing the trade off you are making.
