i guarantee Matt will cringe when he reads this in years to come. some valid critiques of the worker-bee lifestyle, but a completely off the mark sense of true utility, value and cross-generation contribution to such. any small amount of serious study of historical "effort" would cause an about face hear. there is little else to say.


I wrote one of those "advice for college graduates" articles after only working for 2 years -- 1 year in a cube farm where you were a thing, not a person, and another in larger company that gave people offices, windows, had wellness programs -- basically gave a shit. People have told me that I would "regret my writing X s/months/years from now" but I still don't.

I (still) wouldn't willingly work in a cube farm. If they're so pressed/cheap for space, I'll gladly work from home instead.
