I think that most of us college drop outs are having trouble understanding the certification system. I don't really
have a strong grasp of it, but I think I may have an idea. It isn't the
amount of certs you have, it is who you are cert'ed by. The closer you are to the top of the tree the more likely
you
will actually be certified. I just lost my Apprentice status which makes sense because I am part of a constantly
changing status network. If someone pulls the certification of someone that certified me, I lose status. One thing
I
wonder about is if the more people you certify the more diluted your seed becomes. The less weight you have.
Maybe I am misunderstanding the whole "seed" thing. If I'm right shouldn't the originally seeded people
have their weight increased to cope with an ever expanding universe?
Some of my comrades have weighed in on the whole work not being a perfect system. I have some very thoughtful
friends and co-workers. I'm interested in seeing what happens in the near future at my workplace. I think most of
us have gotten pretty jaded. Hopefully this will increase consciousness. Either that or our concerns will get swept
under the carpet yet again. I think that recent events will hopefully drive home the point that we all have to work
together to get what we want. It is easy for them to throw a bone to the trouble makers and cause division.
Leadership comes from the trouble makes. Without leadership most people are content just to muddle through
and wait for better things to happen. Or jump ship. I think management has proven to be deaf to us. We'll see.
