I can vouch that the article doesn't reflect Kurt's philosophy. Regular readers have probably figured that out for themselves.

CO,

Thanks so much for your mention of my new blog site. I look forward to many more years (?) of co-blogging with you.

With shots being fired at me, it is my rhetorical way of stepping aside. While I don't ever agree that simply firing an unhappy worker is the solution, I also don't think that an angry or unhappy worker helps productivity. If someone is unhappy all day at work it is difficult to keep it to themselves. Unhappiness is contagious as is happiness. I'm not talking about smile-plastered-on-the-face happy. Instead I am talking about toxicly unhappy. That is a problem that will fester if left unadressed.

Why do you feel compelled to tell us it's not your philosophy? Was everyone at work smiling for no apparent reason today? :-)

You're good. I didn't think you jumped the happiness fence.

I had a teacher that told me if you're unhappy at work, shake it up a little bit and get your work done. Nothing will make you happier than actually completing your tasks. If the management is unrealistic, make you own goals and get them done as it's all that you have the power to do.

In an age where many load up on chemical assistance to get through the day, getting things done is a great alternative.

Mark and David - I am compelled to add that the article did not reflect my philosophy. It was a conversation starter.

Twenty years ago??? You have to be kidding. What was I doing drinking Haymakers when I was seven?

How happy can people be, working for a boss who might fire them because he doesn't like their attitude? It would be like working for the Queen of Hearts.
