Working in the financial industry, I have a few questions in mind 1) how much of this is actually caused by the candidates themselves? If a bunch of competitive people want to impress their boss to get a job offer, how much will they work a

The more Dalio gets public, the more I'm doubting his game. His book ''principles'' is interesting, however with time its starting to look like an elaborate marketing plan. I have no doubt that he his serious about

This is a very literal understanding of my comment, it almost sound like a strawman. Of course I do not mean 'theft and rape'. I'm fully aware that the world changed since Indo-European barbarism. The thing is, culture evolve

Have you ever spent 10min of your life with a doctor in an interpersonal setting? These people are probably the most intelectually insecure group in our society. We put them on a pedestal non-stop, the average grades in their classes are al

Hm I beg to disagree. Canadian business owner I speak with in privacy do not like the system. Many employers will try to infer and avoid a ''pregnancy risk'' by any legal mean possible. Why? A small business does not hav

I took the MBTI in my early twenties, then forgot about it. I got into the much more scientific big-5 to understand different types of personalities, and in order to flesh out the possible ranges of behaviors in my mind. Then 10 years later
