A critique of Mr. Gates opinions on life … his life, I’m sure.
1. Yes, Gates, there are law breakers, thieves and murderers, liars and monopolists. It’s so educational to take advice from one. Obviously this leads into …
2. You, Gates, based on 1., do not, understandably enjoy a healthy self-esteem, but you compensate by delegating others to do your dirty work, and don’t forget all those ‘free’ happy software you give away, and your foundation’s effort to save Africa. Hows that Nigerian towns where Islamists are hacking up women and children. Did you forget to give the better stuff to the Islamists?
3. Well, I know a few that were offered $300,000, but turned it down to do original, creative, research, not stealing others stuff and passing it off as yours. And who really wants to be ‘Vice-President’ the first year out … except somebody who is looking to sabotage the President … little unconscious revelation there Gates.
4. Personally, I found bosses easier to work with than co-workers. Many co-workers resented me doing a superior job…. it took the light and put the pressure on them. I guess that never was your problem.
5. As long as there are equal rights granted to each person seeking a certain job and as long as that person can be expected to do a good job (DO NO HARM) in performing the duties, it’s not necessary to put a ‘chip on the job’s shoulder’. It’s really not an issue. Gates appears to want to make everyone ‘eat humble pie’ … because you see, that makes him seem ‘more powerful’ than he really deeply feels he deserves. He should be making license plates in the Washington State Pen, or Federal Pen.
6. Look who’s whining.
7. Speak for yourself. The most excitement from you has been the time somebody threw a pie in your face in the Netherlands, I think. Happy Pie day. For the most part, my kids appreciate everything they were given and earned.
So blah blah blah… this is advice from an unrepentant man who has caused harm, whose only real talent is knowing what to steal, e.g. Disk Operating System (DOS) code; the rest is history of out foxing IBM, after they offered him the opportunity to put the stolen code into every PC, and only after he lied sufficiently and tricked the low grade people sent to verify his ownership of it … kind of like Valerie Plame sending her hubby to Chad to see if they were selling yellow cake to Sadam Hussein. What they didn’t want to see combined with clever hiding abilities …. was not seen. Wow. Thanks Gates, Valerie, Wilson… and all the people who were paid off to keep quiet.
Can’t wait for Windows 8. (I hope he tries to use that little ditty… I’ll sue his ass off.) Yeah, right.
