SHOW NOTES:
Did people whine as much years ago as they do now?
They won't let me succeed at my job. They won't hire me anywhere else.
Maybe "toxic workplaces" are caused by toxic employees? Maybe terrible bosses are just leaders expecting employees to meet deadlines and fulfill assignments?
The fault is with the "Boomers" or GenX because they took advantage, they led great lives, and left nothing for us! Nothing but a healthier, safer world and the last decade of constantly improved living standards.
I'm not valued! Maybe because you don't create much value and you don't make it visible.
Take some accountability, and stop immersing yourself in the internet for that good old confirmation bias from other people who don't take initiative.
If you're unhappy in your job, change it or leave it. There's plenty of work out there that pays well, isn't threatened by AI, but does require responsibility and ownership.
But just stop whining, stop yelling for your Mama.
It ain't your mother's fault.

SHOW NOTES:
It seems as if civilization, especially the arts, are in decline.
Famed authors are "mailing it in" (or really writing to try to sell a screenplay, not a book). Laugh tracks have to remind us when the writers think something is funny, but otherwise it isn't.
Quiz shows, talk shows, news shows all seem out of the same mold, which is 50 years old.
No newscaster ever says to a politician being interviewed, "But you didn't answer my question. It was a 'yes or no' question."
Despite the decline, athletes, celebrities, news anchors, and politicians receive obscene salaries, endorsements, and benefits. We seem to have lost our taste, misplaced our judgment. We're receiving pap and being told it's wagyu beef.
You might find it easier to be getting around these days. But that might have nothing to do with quality or smarts, but rather just the direction in which society is heading.
