|
If you have a boss. Or if you are a boss. You know what moves your ass, right? You know it perfectly. “No trouble”. That’s it. So sad, and so true. “Don’t bother me. Don’t put me in trouble. Over average results, but not too much, otherwise, I don’t know what objectives, bonuses, etc. discuss with you… My biggest fear? To be fired.” This is many bosses’ minds.

These days I’ve been asked many times what I think about the Conejo Malo. Or Bad Bunny. Until the Super Bowl I had no idea who was the guy. I don’t listen to much music those days… So as he is only 31, I guess that I have not heard much of his songs. And still this is irrelevant. People like judging more than complaining.
