Tom Peters: “I am unalterably opposed to ‘kid leashes’, and especially when the situation is as I described it. “

Seth Godin: “Often, more effort goes into circumventing a system then it would take to just do a great job in the first place…”. This makes me think about an experience I had at McDonald’s (yes, sometimes I eat there. I can’t be the only one.)
