I was recently laid off and what you said about an implicit contract is very true. I spent the last ten years in a miserable corporate cubicle, enduring politics and an abusive boss. But the understanding was that it would pay off in the end. It doesn't work that way, and probably wouldn't be worth it if it did. Great video.

Check out what Vineet Nayar, a CEO of an IT company with 51,000 employees, posted over at Harvard Business Publishing: http://blogs.harvardbusiness.org/nayar/2009/01/corporate-ethics-isnt-about-ru.html?cm_mmc=npv-_-DAILY_STAT-_-JAN_2009-_-STAT0127 It breaks my heart (and soul) that it's taking such a widespread down turn to yank people out of cog-hood. Even so, as you say, it is what we do with the pain that matters from now on. I know in my heart that the best is yet to come - a time when more and more of us will create, follow and succeed on our own paths - and be better citizens of planet Earth. Congrats on your book!

Thanks for the up-close-and-personal viewpoint (including the viewpoint of your snowy window). It is a great reminder to wake up and smell the facts, folks! Heartfelt and spot on as usual, Jonathan.
