Me, Myself, and I

This 1960's film also has insight about getting ahead
Time columnist S. Mitra Kalita states what she thinks are The 3 Pillars of a Good Job:
  • Economic stability: a wage that’s enough to afford food to eat and a place to live, health insurance, transit credits or discounts.
  • Economic mobility: learning new skills, career development, cost-of-living adjustments, a path to advancement or promotion, bonus or commission structures.
  • Equity, respect and voice: regular check-ins, affinity groups, two-way feedback sessions, a willingness to listen and change.
  • Gone are the days when an ambitious person would take a job, any job, with a growing, profitable company and through hard work, smarts, and service to colleagues and bosses work his way from the mailroom to the executive suite.

    The new checklist includes transit credits, cost-of-living adjustments and the employer's "willingness to listen and change."

    In other words, it's all about me, myself, and I.
