The Great Rebalancing: What it Means for Employers and Employee




As a seasoned traveler and observer of the world, I've seen the ebb and flow of many things, and the job market is no exception. After three years of tumultuous ups and downs, it seems that the wild ride for American workers is coming to an end. The Great Rebalancing of the employer-employee relationship is upon us, and it's a time for both sides to take stock of where we stand.

 "...it's not a time to lay back and feel too comfortable. Job seekers should redouble their efforts and not let the tight labor market fool them into complacency..."

Introduction speech in the style of Charlton Heston

ChatGPT and the Art of Enterprise Communications: A View from Late, Great, Anthony Bourdain

 

It's like taking a bowl of ramen, you got your broth, your noodles, and your toppings, but it's the broth that makes or breaks the dish. 

Listen, folks, I gotta tell ya, this Microsoft-OpenAI deal is like a big bowl of hot and sour soup, it's got a little bit of everything. Ten billion bucks, you don't see that every day, and it's not just some fancy schmancy tech company, it's OpenAI, the brainiacs behind ChatGPT. I mean, have you seen what this thing can do?

The Prints of Life: A week on the road in the world of Managed Print Services 2008

 

On the road again,
Deals to close, clients to meet,
Thrill of the chase lives.
__________


It's another day on the road, 


another week in the wild world of managed print services. I hit the gas on my beat-up Chevy and head towards Victorville, California, where a room full of copier salesmen are all vying for a piece of the action at an RFQ meeting. I can already feel the whiskey burning in my veins and the adrenaline pumping through my body. 

The drive there is a trip, let me tell you. Past the Rose Bowl, the site of many a Michigan defeat, and onto the Pacific Coast Highway. The ocean is a sight to behold, especially after a cold Michigan winter. Up to the client's office, where the C-level execs are waiting for me to inventory their fleet...

This is my element, baby.

Exploring the Potential of GPT: How it Can Improve Efficiency and Productivity in the Workplace



GPT, or Generative Pre-training Transformer, is a powerful language model that can understand and respond to natural language inputs. This technology has the ability to access vast databases and provide answers to questions based on millions of previous iterations and inquiries. However, one of the big concerns surrounding GPT is its potential to take away jobs and automate certain tasks.

In this article, we will explore the potential implications of GPT on the job market and how it can be utilized in a business setting. We will also take a look at how GPT can be used to generate an 800-word blog post in the style of Stephen King, create an SEO title and tweet, introduce a LinkedIn post, provide a five-point summary paragraph, and develop a two-day course outline.

I've been saying this for what seems like a decade, but it's only been weeks, 'this is a big deal'.


I am surprised and alarmed at the lack of attention and outright disregard for this, by EVERYONE in our little niche.
