Carol Bartz: Pyramids, Not Ladders

[agapitoflores001]

Very well said Ms Carol Bartz.

A ladder is more unstable than a pyramid...Thanks Carol Bartz. BTW your company SUCKS.

@vietdong21 She represents yahoo, yahoo does not represent Carol Bartz.

The career is a modern invention and highly overrated- Personally, I'm rather fond of staying at home and smoking herb from dusk till dawn, while running a home business in my underwear. When I have children, instead of sending them to an IVLC, I'm going to teach them entrepreneurial traits: working independently, accessing resources, responsibility, code of standards, the power of accurate observation, dealing with challenges, testing and judgment, and speaking in front of large groups.

Fat hillbilly.

[nyc4044]

@suck00these She doesn't look fat, nor does she strike me as a hillbilly. However, she does have a foul mouth and has no business talking to young people. What she needs is a good spanking to keep her in line.

@nyc4044 Here you are talking about spanking and unladylike behavior!

WE'RE NOT IN THE 40'S ANYMORE YOU FUCKING PRICK.

[nyc4044]

@creat3d Well a lot of people wish we were back in the 1940s. Think about it. There was no widespread illegal drug use. People respected authority and their elders. People were genreally kind and polite and humble, not loud and obnoxious as so many are today. And they dressed up when they left the house. They didn't go shopping or flying on airplanes wearing frumpy pajama bottoms and dirty flip flops.

@nyc4044 GET OFF MY LAWN!!!

[quarvis]

@nyc4044 dude, you are really bent on spanking this old bag aren't you??

[nyc4044]

@quarvis I have no desire to spank Carol Bartz.  That is her husband's responsibility. And she's not an old bag. I find her very attractive.

When you are at the top of the pyramid or the ladder you are in the hospital dying without any purpose and without any use for your money that you now have.

This lady is cool .. a true Yahoo!

Interesting and very clear presentation. I took a break from my work in the computer games industry to do a full time yoga course for some months. That enriched my life even if it was to step down from the career ladder for a while. I look back on it today as something I really remember.

[fighter911cz]

Nice example in my opinion. In my case, I am still quite young (23) but still I devote myself to education, to running a small business and I am engaged in communal politics as well,and yet I haven't found my final career destination and therefore, I would say that imagining my career development as a pyramid to a ladder grasps the reality of career building really well because, as youve said and as far as I belive, pursuing only one area of career development can make it a really big deal.

[AdvaitSarkar]

Interesting.
