“…Maslow’s are fucked” is pure poetry, Gil.
Indeed, our Maslows are fucked. Nick Nicholas S. Thompson Emeritus Professor of Psychology and Biology Clark University <http://home.earthlink.net/~nickthompson/naturaldesigns/> http://home.earthlink.net/~nickthompson/naturaldesigns/ From: Friam [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Gillian Densmore Sent: Monday, October 22, 2018 2:20 PM To: The Friday Morning Applied Complexity Coffee Group <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [FRIAM] Open Letter About to take a nap before going to a Zumba class. Several class mates have masters, but are still working at least 2 jobs. One's husband and her with 3 jobs are: barily scraping by and still trying to keep a Zumba club glued together. Someone needs to say it: screw minumum wage these days. That's nuts! 3 jobs, and can scrapiing by. I think he on top of working in Human Services also has a part time job in IT. I have no idea where at though. If she's at class today I might ask. I argue that it's a combination of issues Education clearly gets people only sofar. I've said to many times I suspect: How the hell are you to get the inane experience companies or goverment want without having it that's the litteral defination of a catch22.I say their is a fundimental issue when even with masters degrees it's all to common issue: I want to lead but etc. If I understand right the teacher that I help now her and her SO have. Masters are also scraping by. I think she works both at a gallery and does social media stuff. He makes ocean maps for tecloo's at the momen, he also tused to study climate changes and something to do with ocean levels. . even with two 45-50k a year earners "Dude are you kidding me I can't afford rent here! it's insane! 3k a month to live in the ghetto? " what I'm getting at Is I agree with nick something has to change, IMO a part of that something is a reality check to the powers that be. FWIW nick a ton of data backs up this issue. Litterally no one can afford to live on 40k a year. Being able to be in a position of leadership if someone wants it,sadly takes a back seat if your Maslow's are fucked. I am agreeing with nick btw: being stuck in service because of a ton of job pipeline issues aka sheer arogance and greed is a problem..

To the New Mexican We are writing to urge all Santa Feans to be sure to vote this year, particularly if you are a recent high-school graduate or are related to one. Our higher-educational systems are under stress, and our elected officials need to know you are paying attention. We are retired college professors and industrial researchers, living in Santa Fe. Every day, we talk to young people as smart and as dedicated to learning as our best research students in the 70’s and 80’s, yet are working as cashiers, ride hail drivers, waiters and waitresses. Under present conditions, these young folks cannot afford to go to university and, without that training, will never take up the leadership positions their talent deserves. As more and more of my generation retire from our institutes, government laboratories, colleges, and universities, our nation will desperately need these talented young people. Please take time to vote and to let your representatives know that you care about education at every level. The future safety and prosperity of our nation depends on it. Lemme know. Nick Nicholas S.
