The problem with that entire message. Is that you’re misrepresenting what was said, to the point of making a strawman. And then misrepresenting an anecdote as evidence to prove a trend far far larger than it. One that all actual evidence paints a completely opposite picture.
I literally said good landlords can and do exist. Similarly isolated good bosses and CEOs can exist. But they are very isolated. To the point that they’re not representative. Where I work, my direct boss happens to be generally great. It goes heavily downhill the further up you go. Our CEO is feckless. 3rd generation. More interested in investing and financing with the money his inheritance provided him than running the business his family built. Which is much more the norm.
If your companies owner is really that great, you should stop taking them for granted. They aren’t representative in any way. Definitely not of any larger companies. I’m guessing yours is positively tiny. That tends to be where the better ones are. Because power corrupts.
When I said the problem with the first two things, I was referring to the concepts laid out by the person you replied to. I wasn’t saying the problem with the first two things you said.
Our revenues are about $20m/mo, we’re not massive but not tiny. I don’t take anyone for granted, not sure where you got that notion.
My point is that while there is a clear problem with both, it doesn’t represent everything. Social media tends to boil things down to oversimplifications and people will charge forward without thinking critically.
