The door is only as open as the mind inside the office. For the success of both supervisor and employee, collaboration is crucial. I have been most successful when I understood how my supervisor's performance was being assessed. Likewise, I have been least successful when that type of information was withheld, making it impossible for me to make even small decisions to enable that success. Different Drummer: Toshiro Mifune

Consider this an echo of sorts for the current episode of Dan Carlin's Common Sense podcast. Frustrated with the feeling that complaining is all we seem to be capable of contributing to the political process, as it is now, Carlin has made a call to action. I share his frustration. So-called evangelical Christian pastors calling for the internment or extermination of all non-heterosexuals? Proudly "radical" atheists suggesting that all faithful Christians are, in fact, mentally ill and may need to be institutionalized? Clearly, our society is on the verge of breaking down completely, and our methods of communicating with each other must change before it's too late.
