Your eccentric programmer genius also responds well to ego-stroking articles explaining what a precious, unique little snowflake he is!
Don't show this to him though, as reading it would cause a mental context switch, and make him feel all sapped and drained!
As we all know, your eccentric genius worker ant is at least 30 times more productive than Joe Average, so making him reattune the universe with his humming inner harmony would result in billions worth of lost productivity!
- swombat 18y agoI smell envy. Everyone responds well to ego-stroking articles. The real question is, can you inject some useful stuff along with the ego-stroking?
- shiranaihito 18y agoI smell a positive response to the article :p The problem is that there have been lots of articles like this floating around, during the past year for example, and every time the central theme is "We're So Special". It's getting old.
- toxik 18y agoIt's part of human nature to want to be like other people. Even if it's all pretentious bullshit, horoscopes masqueraded, why can't you let the people who feel struck feel struck? It's just like religion. You can't prove anything to be wrong, you just know, but you also let people live with the lie, because it makes them happy. Did I get vague? I didn't mean to.
