Same for exploiting and exacerbating shortages, like that guy who has 20,000 bottles of hand sanitizer, he was selling at $20 a bottle. I’m not worried about getting Covid-19– probably a good chance I have it from all my travel. And if I come down with it, my friend who owns a chain of emergency

That’s ripping off desperate people– and it makes me mad. // At the end of this post, I’ll tell you what really pisses me off. But first– two minutes ago, a company with a stockpile of overpriced hand sanitizer messaged me, too. I get that it’s “just capitalism”, but now is not the time to

When we’re on Zoom or conference calls, it’s easy to zone out or pretend you can multitask. You physically can’t– countless studies prove this,

A colleague and I were discussing “leadership” and what that truly meant. We came up with this analogy, which I hope you’ll enjoy. Imagine you move rocks for a living.
