A long time ago, a manager called me into her office, and pointed at a report I had sent to her about the company's products. Her words are just as relevant to this situation:
"This is a career-limiting move."
What did your report say?
I pointed out they were making product decisions based on fear of what competitors might do.
Imagine Eeyore, with diagrams and charts.
Minus the face tattoo.
Questioning the leadership? That's a paddlin'.
… I don't remember Eeyore having a face tattoo
Well, he’s a donkey. You’d need to shave his face to see it. But it’s scandalous!
It was a gopher heavy episode, meanwhile Owl was showing Eeyore the finer artistry of home drawn tattoos.
What did you do?
A few months later, was first in line to take the voluntary severance package. Unfortunately, it didn't come with a free face tattoo.
