The reason it's hard to explain is because this doesn't really exist anymore within most companies.
Most companies don't care about the quality of their products or services, so being better doesn't mean anything.
Learning 10 skillsets means 'hey we can pay this one guy to do 10 things...' then you become too valuable to be promoted...
Your advice is best applied to the self-employed. If you have to work for someone else, do your homework on the employer.
Yes…. I was speaking to employing yourself based on the necessary fixtures to failures, that only you, yourself, were willing to fix.
However, this is happening a lot in the wage market, too. It’s a worker’s paradise bc they can call their own shots, as employers simply need bodies in place. I have seen them give in to the most insane demands I have ever seen, and some are even beginning to cater to such things.
More younger people than older people fail to take advantage of this, probably because they can’t see it yet, bc they’ve been convinced they are so oppressed.
