A friend of mine
I have a friend. He works for a big corporation and he really likes what he does. It’s not a unconditional feeling but he works on what makes him happy and he tends to forget about the corporate mess all around him.
What makes him even more fond of his job is the people he work with. They are passionate like him, they like to work together, to stay late only to make something good even better, or to hang out after work. Beside the corporate storm they feel often on their faces, they stay together because of their team mates not the company that employs them.
It was like this up until today. He feels bad now. His employer changed the rules. An award for hard work is a shortened leash. A prison of rigid rules where’s no place for innovation and creativity. He feels disappointed as it is not what he were supposed to see. He still likes his work pals but now he hates the company he works for.
Will he stay or leave? Which force will prevail? Only time will tell…

Jakub, I believe there is more than one of your friends sitting nearby in this situation.

As I heard there are more of them, so you must be right.

Someone tells me once: “Do in such way as to have better in own life”.
Maybe the company will change but people will leave sooner or later, how long he could make the best of a bad bargain??
