    I was looking at a years worth of sales by sales managers and noticed the worst performer had just two weeks were he met goal.

    I asked the regional sales managers for details on those two weeks. Regional said the sales manager was on vacation. Turns out he just sets the weekly pricing below cost in order to keep the business.

    “So…he’s more effective when he’s not here”.

    Think that’s short? Imagine if they never found the stargate. Just some dudes in the desert for a bit then it’s over.

    Kinda changes things a lot if you think about it.

    Authority figures should have listened less to Samantha Carter.

    Edit:
    IDK if people misunderstand? But if they listened less the plot would be thicker.

        I have no idea why? But it seems I’m as popular as he was in the beginning.
        But I guess people don’t want the plot to be even thicker?

      But if they listened too little then the book would be empty

        No you are reversing the logic, if they listened less the plot would be thicker, per the logic of the meme.

          I know what the meme said… I’m saying if they didn’t listen at all they wouldn’t have gotten the dialing computer working in the first place. So the sweet spot is in the middle.
