We spoke different native languages and [...]

There’s a very important post over on Seth Godin’s blog titled The forever recession (and the coming revolution) that you simply must read. Our world is changing faster than we realize.

After Lyle hired me, I saw the position profile the recruiter had used for the placement: 10+ years management experience in a B2C service industry, bachelor’s in accounting required, law degree preferred, and a working knowledge of telecommunications.

Ever have one of those “defining moments” in your life? You know, those times when ‘something’ happened, and you just knew that moment would change you forever… I remember a defining moment in college.
