[ Cost of “DB” ]

I grew up in the post baby-boomer, pre-millennial, pure GenX era of big hair, and, big cost cuts.

I saw the downsizing, outsourcing and re-organising of all kinds of businesses.  I’ve seen the growth of executive compensation packages and the “de-growth” of worker pride and employee loyalty.

This is to say, there’s a cost of doing business.  That includes paying for training, or for time on committees, or for community memberships. 

It’s a cost of doing business, whether you’re a company of one, or a company of thousands. 

Get over the angst of paying for things that are a benefit.
