I BEG OF YOU
You'd think TIME would dig a little deeper.
Anyway before I go on a rant, that's always the case with people that think they know what they are talking about and end up writing up a five page essay on the symptoms of a problem, but never actually address the core issue. It's what we're always told in management classes whenever we're trying to figure out a particular case. It's hard, and a few heads are better than one. It's why I side-eye a lot of these one-brain pieces.
