AUTHORITY MAN: KNOW THEM WHEN YOU SEE THEM, HEAR THEM

April 9, 2020 by David Gillaspie

Authority man comes in all different shapes and sizes, but the flavor never changes. Even when they favor you and I, empathy leaves a slightly bitter taste. We cheer when authority man rules our way, but forget that we’re one misstep from being ruled against. Then what happens?

LEADERSHIP, LIFE: SAME OR DIFFERENT

February 12, 2019 by David Gillaspie

“The winner in life depends on who dies with the most toys?” When was that a popular sentiment? And where? The first time I heard it was shop class making sand boards, the sort of woodworking project the region called for since we were surrounded by sandy beaches, sandy yards, and and endless realm of […]

ENOUGH LEADERSHIP? WHEN IS ENOUGH ENOUGH?

January 10, 2019 by David Gillaspie

Talk to any reliable construction contractor about when enough is enough and they say two things: It’s enough when you run out of money to do more. And it’s enough when you run out of time and need to wrap things up. Ask any self respecting parent how they decide when enough is […]

Coaching For Best Business Practice Bottom Line

September 12, 2018 by David Gillaspie

I’ve heard a Russian saying about production workers: “We pretend to work, they pretend to pay us.” It probably sounds funny in Russian. In America workers who pretend to work usually find other jobs. Small business owners know their bottom line better than anyone. Whether they know a trade or mastered […]

AR15 PURCHASE QUESTIONS THAT NEED ASKING

April 9, 2018 by David Gillaspie

The Washington Post ran an nice piece about a guy buying his first AR15. He’d wanted one for years and finally the day came. Money, motivation, and gun show all came together for him. The WaPo research seems pretty good, even with a tag of fake news thrown around. The […]

DEMOCRAT PARTY OFFICIAL WEBSITE PHONE CALL

February 16, 2018 by David Gillaspie

I got the call last night from the Democrat Party, and like a story that goes public after signing non-disclosure statements, I felt a sense of freedom. The phone call on my land line, yes I still have a land line, was a money call. One hundred dollars was the starting point. […]

FOR SALE: modern bloggers and their markets. Go to any bookstore or library and get ready to be overwhelmed by the selections of the printed word. From the looks of it people can’t stop writing, talking, talking about writing, writing about talking. And then there’s the hook. The more you learn about the writer, the […]

OREGON REST STOP GEORGE

September 5, 2015 by David Gillaspie

Oregon Rest Stop Is The Best On The West Coast. No one stops at an Oregon rest stop just for the toilet. There’s so much more to do. Walk the dog in the dog yard, picnic tables, and a break from the people you’ve been cooped up with for hours is more important than the […]
