Yea doesn't sound dysfunctional at all... lol. Apply that for marriage for example:
> Given the chance, both parties would expect the other party be loyal while they optimize for something better than what they have.
Peachy.
- rkachowski 2y agoThe difference between employment relationships and marriage is rather large.
- silverquiet 2y agoThe divorce rate would suggest it isn't that large.
- nkrisc 2y agoHistorically, marriages often were almost transactional arrangements of convenience.
- silverquiet 2y agoI'd say that also reflects my experience with dating.
- ajot 2y agoYou should be looking at employment as a contract, and marriage (and other personal relationships) as a covenant. If you apply tit-for-tat with your spouse, at least one of you will end dissatisfied and hurt.
- _w1tm 2y agoWho would want to be married with their company? You are finding dysfunction where there is none. Imagine expecting the employee or company to have the other party for better or for worse, till death do them apart. Talk about dysfunction!
- Culonavirus 2y agoBut I am talking about loyalty. Marriage was just an example that points out the absurd nature of the "loyalty" the user described. You can't say "well, I am loyal as long as I don't have any other options"... that's not how loyalty works.
- kombookcha 2y agoDamn that's crazy, almost like they're completely different and applying the features of one to the other is apples and oranges. ;)
