You can be the most productive and most effective, but politics show up as ego, jealousy and sabotage from bosses who can’t perform.

Bad boss? Fire him/her. When you're interviewing for a job, You're job is to interview them. You are an equal.

Every boss, if you are forgetting, is another human being made of bones and flesh and likes it when his ego gets stroked.

If only employees knew this...there is no hand out just because you got a degree. You still gotta make $ for the biz (employer), if you choose not to make $ for yourself (freelancer / ent).

If self-employment is the opposite of employed-by-other, than a job is outsourcing your freedom (time and talent) to a boss.

The worst mistake a boss can make is not to say 'well done'.
