Like, if you want to make more money, what do you do?

You send status reports weekly.

You update your manager about what you're working on.

You show the results that you've had.

And you call it being strategically annoying, basically.

Are those the four or is there anything else that like, if you want to make more money, you should absolutely do?

Definitely.

Well, why do you think it is that this is so rare, too?

I'm not sure how much more work it takes or how much more intelligence it takes.

But it's one really rare, I think, for people to come with solutions, not problems writ large.

And it seems really hard for people to come and actually take the responsibility to say, I'm going to do X or Y.

Yeah, there's this great meme that I saw and it was like a little lifeboat and a lifeboat had like holes in it over here and cracks there and a broken sail.

And next to all the things that were wrong with it, there are people all around the boat.

But next to all those issues, it was like, not my job.

Somebody else will deal with that.

I don't want to be the one to bring that up.

All these little excuses.

And then it talked about how there are two types of people, sort of the people who fix and the people who ride.

And the people who fix always end up being in charge and the people who ride always end up behind.

And you have an idea that's a little bit like this, like two types of managers, umbrella managers versus funnel managers.
