Life is problems, most of the solutions are tried and true.   Need money?  Learn a skill and go to work.  Need healthcare? Go to a doctor.  But sometimes people get hooked into believing in miracle solutions promoted with cultish zeal.  Then, they want to hook you too.

This week's Post of the Week is all about a sarcastic response I got when I asked a friend how they were doing.   It made me think about what that person was really thinking and feeling and what we think and feel when our work is not aligned to who we are or what we want.  

This week also includes my review of the new Pixel 4XL cell phone.   Don't let other reviews scare you.  This is one amazing phone, listen to find out what makes it so great and the one little thing that isn't great.

Sometimes we find that we are the low end of the salary distribution for our job.

Also, this episode includes a review of the best TV available today!

Oftentimes in our career, we are asked to lead, or be a big part of, something we know is going to be an unmitigated disaster or a complete failure.   Sooner or later it's unavoidable.  There can be real negative consequences for the professional in these situations.  So how can you best handle them?  Listen to this show for both public and private sector examples of disasters and a few great tips on how to navigate these intense situations!

NOTE: This show was intentionally published a few days later than normal to give a bit more time for Episode 125, our big live special, to be at the top of the feed.  Thanks for your understanding!
