The absolute truth by @doctorow “Corporations are immortal, transhuman artificial life-forms and humans are their gut flora. Gut flora and host organisms are often aligned in their interests. Ultimately, your gut flora’s strategies are not yours. If the company is paying you as little as it can get away with and will cut you loose the minute it can, then logically, by the company’s own terms of reference, you should be stealing office supplies while you sing the corporate hymn. HR spending is about figuring out ways to get you to act as though this isn’t true, even though everyone knows it is.” http://boingboing.net/2015/04/23/marissa-mayer-makes-1100-yaho.html
