This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I've changed my mind and I'd like to disagree with my previous statement. You can't pay people to care.

Very good point. I worked for an employee owned company and I hated the work, but loved the atmosphere. There really was this sense of everyone there working together to make everyone better. I don't think stock options can provide the same atmosphere, the employees need to have agency around leadership choices as well as the compensation that comes with it.
