Here's number three. Be so unpleasant at work that no one can stand you. There's a few more.

Comment on: Blog Post 'Does your client view you as a trusted advisor?': as to pay for all the clients/deals I didn't get! Really though, there is a price of time and monetary investment to land the deals we do get. Good will and results go a long way. I also realize I'm a tool, to be utilized as they need. As ong as I kep a healthy persepctive of my real value and theirs, I function objectively. Some clients are friends (and I mean true friends thru divorce, death and illness), but most are cherished colleagues. We like and respect one another. And you know, that's often enough.…; Added by Cindy Cremona, CPC at 12:48pm on August 29, 2012

Comment on: Blog Post 'The $70,000 Solution': es. I think the original study you make reference to measured a person's overall satisfaction with their life and/or work, not their day-to-day happiness. (There's another study I saw reported on recently that shows the richer you are, the more alcohol you drink, so it's definitely not a simple calculation.) When it comes to recruiting and employer branding, I'd say offering a living wage is (or should be) just plain human decency. Offering above that lets you be competitive. I'd say Gravity Payments is competing on the idea that everyone who works there is valued much more beyond that baseline level.…; Added by Maddy B. at 4:36pm on September 15, 2015

Comment on: Topic 'The Story That Needs to be Told - Part IV': company next Tuesday. She is finding out as she starts to interview that there is life outside of hell hole. Other employees are calling her and texting her begging her to call them if she lands something and can help them get out. One of the texts this morning started out, "Hell Hole to Free Bird" "Come in Free Bird" "I just came back to work today after being out on FMLA due to my son's illness. I was put on positive disipline so the bitch can fire me if all of my FMLA is not approved. I hate her, on my way to file an ethics complaint." "Please let me know if Free Bird finds a nest if there is room for a bird who wants to be free of this insanity"?…; Added by Sandra McCartt at 5:41pm on June 23, 2011

Comment on: Blog Post 'Stories of a jobseeker vol. 3: Learn something': er, they are one illness (themselves or a family member) away from economic disaster. That's the reality I deal with on a daily basis. I'd suggest you (actually, everyone on this site) take a few hours a month and volunteer at a social services agency in their career services area like I do. You will see first hand that while a temp job sounds great on face value, in reality the gaps in employment due to spending more time job seeking over of the course of their work lives reduces their economic bottomline among other things. But, this is the world we live in. And it doesn't appear that things will change in the near future. Randall Scasny http://fs5consulting.com…; Added by Randall Scasny at 9:42am on June 28, 2012
