  • If y’all aren’t already aware the first test date for Consumer Power is on Feb 28th. Don’t buy ANYTHING on that date. Yeah, it’s brief, it will probably be a blip, but this is like a test of the emergency broadcast system. If we can get say 2% of people to do that, then watch closely for reactions, it will help us spread the word for the 2nd test. Then the 3rd. It’s only through this grassroots organization that we can accomplish anything.

    I had a friend tell me that they’d already seen organizations trying to make it their idea and honestly, I’m not at all concerned about who is putting their brand on it. The POINT here is that we need to start exercising our muscles to make this a real tool for change. Stop focusing on that message and start embracing the larger goal here. Spread the word. RESIST.






  • Sorry, maybe because I’m American, so in case our other friends are confused… Managers are below Executives in every capacity and when you ‘flatten’ your radial grid, they mean firing managers. They are the yessiest of the yes men in corporate america.

    C-Suite = CEO, CTO, CFO, etc.

    Executives = Presidents, Vice Presidents, Directors, etc.

    Managers = The people who manage the workers, ie handle scheduling, duties, metrics, and having to eventually fire someone because the people above tell them to.

    Workers = The people who actually know the job.





  • Little magnetic shopping list board that sticks on the fridge. Lost a really wonderful dog a few years ago and had written a list for her that included a lot of quality of life stuff for her final days.

    After she passed, I just never wrote on that board again. It got packed and moved to a new house where it sits once again on the refrigerator. Time has hardened the ink on the board and it won’t come off again, but I just physically can’t throw it away.

    It’s stupid. She’s been gone 4 years now. I’m just powerless xD
