Nonetheless, here I am with another ramble. A few years ago, at work, my boss said something interesting to me. She said "Tyson, your niceness is rubbing off on me! A few months ago, I would've fired [this person] on the spot without thinking twice about it. Now, I want to give him another chance." While, on the surface, she mea...
