I am coming, I am coming,
With my carpet soft and green;
I have spread it o'er the common,

That all winter were so bare,
You shall see, with small leaves covered,
Wave their branches in the air.

I am coming! Little children,

RETAIL RELATIONSHIPS by MICHELLE HSIAO

And, as far as work relationships were concerned, I should be a good coworker but not get attached to colleagues.

A McKinsey study found that the average life span of companies listed on the S&P 500 was 61 years in 1958; today, it’s less than 18 years. McKinsey believes that by 2027, 75% of S&P 500 companies will have disappeared. New businesses have an 81% chance of surviving their first year; in two years, a little less than 70% of businesses are still standing. Only 25% make it to 15 years or more. There’s a clear long-term trend of declining corporate longevity, with this figure ...
