On being a horrible consultant. I think the best consultants, from a P&L point of view, are happy to sell ideas, regardless of consequences. I have the deficiency of having too few ideas ... or I fall into the category of people who doesn't want to sell an idea if it doesn't get implemented, since it costs too much to produce, and there's no long-term upside to the sunk cost of thinking about whatever got sold.
Sometimes people think, what's the matter with selling something that gets processed into shit? Well, generally I prefer not to verbalise an offensive idea, but if I had to think about it ... you see, the people who buy ideas, then create shitty products and companies are living in the same city, or general world, as me. I don't want to go about the world and encounter this shit where I got involved in the supply-chain.
A client that doesn't follow advice, makes the air smell bad, and that is worse for life.
