The Myth of the Management Myth
| |
| On a plane yesterday I read a truly awful new article in The Atlantic. Called "The Management Myth", it is nominally about how management theory is a waste, MBAs are dangerous, philosophy rules, and consultants are nasties. |

I’m in the Houston airport…
| |
| …wondering how my confirmed ticket to Dallas was cancelled, leaving me stranded for three hours with nothing to do other than what I usually do when I find myself in this unfortunate situation with absolutely no control over getting what I really want, which is to be on the plane I was originally booked on, filling the three hours with stuff I should have done in the time I had personally allotted for it, but didn’t do. |

Who Are You Talking To?
| |
| Twenty minutes after we boarded the plane, the pilot came on to tell us that there was a maintenance issue with the aircraft and we would be slightly delayed taking off.
