Any time the exchange dissolves down to the base level, when people have the single quantifiable and shared metric of money against which to judge, the dance starts. Don’t be surprised.
When you’re hiring, they’re incentivised to ask for more, you benefit when the number is smaller. So the waltz.
When you’re selling, they want the bang to buck ratio to be in their favour. Time to shimmy.
When you’re buying, they want you to take more and to pay big for the privilege. Tie up your tap shoes.
Don’t stand on the sidelines saying you can’t dance. Join in, live a little, see how it feels.
Don’t come unlaced because they throw in a quick-step or shine a light on your ill-timed shuffle. Take it for what it is … no offence … they’re just doing their job.
A-one, two, three, four.
