Forgotten Truths.

Quoting from "The Richest Man in Babylon":

"Work was my grandfather's secret key to the golden shekels? "

"It was the only key he had when I first knew him. Thy grandfather enjoyed working, and the Gods appreciated his efforts and rewarded him liberally."

If you appreciate that logic, you'll appreciate "A Letter to Garcia"

It's hard to find good help

Ridiculous and superfluous take on workforce woes. Pertinent maybe when Henry Ford stalked these lands.
