    Remember the employer wants to minimize their payroll and maximize their profit.
    Also: remember the employee want to maximize their payroll and minimize their effort.
    By definition, these two rules together create conflict and misunderstanding, and the feeling that the other party is always treating you unfair.

  3. Re:Sending a message.. on Orson Scott Card on mp3 File Sharing · · Score: 1
    Oh and it doesn't matter if you like the artist/song or not, just that it is a little bit mainstreamish so that the public could also like it after a lot of airtime.


    The point is, there has never been (AFAIK) an actual focussed effort to promote ONE artist and song to get the point across..

  4. Sending a message.. on Orson Scott Card on mp3 File Sharing · · Score: 1
    since i don't believe in this whole 'dont buy cds' boycot (ppl want to listen to new music) how about sending a message to the recordcompanies by making ONE independent artist really really famous??

    ideas:
    • buying his stuff directly from him
    • sending one song (the supposed 'hit') to every radiostation you can think of (multiple times under different names if need arises)
    • asking for that artist at play-by-demand radio/tv-shows
    • post about that artist on every messageboard you can find
    • let your non-/. savvy friends subconsiously listen to this song all the time
    • etcetc.

    Pretty soon this one artist (with his one 'hit') will be a force to recon with.
    Any thoughts?

  9. Re:Do we have the right to do this? on Could Mars Be Habitable In 100 Years? · · Score: 1

    Does being part of nature mean screwing it up to you? I'd like to believe that, since we are the most intelligent and evolved being on earth (at least, that's what they say ;] ), we can find other ways to live and act than to destroy nature. We don't need to act like animals anymore.
