Not good at your job!

 You know about a few people who are terrible at their job, but they are still in the organization and you wonder why?

Most probably, their talent is their ability to stay, no matter what.

You might think that this doesn’t concern you, and it might be true if we are thinking about only one bad individual. What about having a team with 2 or more people like that?

Having more people like that in your team will lead to low morale for everyone. This is why you need to know in what kind of team you are part of and if you see more people like that, leave as soon as possible.

The domain x.com pointed yesterday to a page with one character “X”. Today it redirects to the twitter domain and soon we might see the dead of the bird and the birth of the symbol “X”. This change will be followed carefully and we can all learn from the mistakes Elon Musk will do during this transition. He already is very famous with the mistakes he did during his first weeks in the company. Can the company survive such a transformation is another open question? There are already some competitors like Mastodon and Instagram very own Threads. But the vision of Elon Musk is to turn this app more like WeChat, the Chinese mega app that combines many features. The issue with such a combination of too many businesses and too many regulations might play a crucial role in the downfall of the company. Many times s
