I came here to post this. Glad to see it’s where it needs to be.

Definitely! Though I would say avoiding purposeful harm to their ego should be more than a nice gesture. That’s just basic respect. Trying to avoid accidental harm, sure.
You already kinda said it—this is a problem with the relationship with your boss, not with the book.
With my boss, I can just say, “Honestly, this one was a miss for me. I appreciate the recommendation, and I wanted to give it a chance, but I didn’t find much actionable substance in it. What did you get out of it?”
If you don’t feel like you can do that, have a conversation with him about how he likes to receive feedback. If the answer is “he doesn’t,” it might be time to go boss shopping. But I doubt that will be the case.
I wonder this same thing about my company. The only rational theory I’ve heard - which is completely unconfirmed - is that they aren’t willing to sell the building because it’s still needed for the IT team and a few other purposes, but need a certain occupancy level to not be penalized on their taxes.
SD slots aren’t all that uncommon still.
“MothBookkeeper is the dictator of the world, and I completely trust his decisions.”
Nevermind the logistics of that; power lives where people believe it does.
Then I could make multiple beneficial changes, such as:
I don’t know, man, it’s just like… the way that it is.
Reminds me of that gif of Obama. Same exact expression.
Well damn.
If only we did the same thing with voters.
Kidding, that wouldn’t work. But… sigh.

Stop all the downloadin’
Fuck Loren Bosworth. All my homies hate Loren Bosworth.
Did you read the article? The guy almost killed himself from having to listen to comments like this one. Asshole. Keep it to yourself.
I appreciate you honestly giving your opinion when it conflicts with the popular sentiment, and I don’t think you should be downvoted for that.
But this is such a shit take, wtf.
…Limit?
Rekindle old friendships. Every time you do something together, plant a seed for the next thing you’re going to do. Meet new people through them. If you like the people, don’t say no to anything you’re invited to. Rinse, repeat.
It’s on Max, I’ve been watching it recently.
Well, my story isn’t particularly interesting, but I imagine it’s similar to many others’.
I used RIF. Reddit killed RIF. I wasn’t a fan of how they handled that at all, and it instantly soured me against the company. Also, their own app is terrible.
I browsed /r/RedditAlternatives for answers, and tried a few. Lemmy felt most like what I enjoyed about Reddit, and it wasn’t totally devoid of content. I figured out how instances worked, picked a random one, thinking I’d choose my favorite later, and started posting a comment here and there. I tried a bunch of apps, moved from Beehaw to lemmy.world, found communities that I liked, and… well here we are.
I’ll admit, I’ve visited Reddit a few times when Lemmy has felt stale, but mostly I’ve completely moved over without missing it. The vibe is much better, like early Reddit, despite having less content. I’ve felt compelled to contribute more often myself, which makes it more fun.
So what does he want to be called? Just a rat? But - there are actual rats, which are already called rats. Unless those don’t exist in this universe, “ratman” seems like a pretty reasonable term. He has both rat and humanoid features.
