It&#8217;s easier finding someone to blame than facing that blame so do it only when you feel it is important to you!!!!<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3 class=\"entry-header\">The relentless search for &#8220;tell me what to do&#8221;<\/h3>\n<div class=\"entry-body\">\nIf you&#8217;ve ever hired or managed or taught, you know the feeling.<br \/>\nPeople are just begging to be told what to do.
