So it can't have been very fun from the start, because faliure was an option. He grew faster than he could cope. That's not fun. That's stressful.
A lot of those guys did much better in the 2008 debacle. Here they lived high for a long time and then got out and got other jobs. I think people tend to confuse mania with fun. Often in falling in love, for that matter. A denial of the driving underlying panic. No wonder a lot of the players were drawn to cocain, the mania chemical.Pedro I Rengel wrote:From what I've heard, Enron was a supremely stressful and abusive workplace. Everyone hated it.

These guys don't have a thing, so they become dopamine junkies, instead of facing their own lack of creativity or......and rush ahead into empty shit.That's on the idiots who worked for him or with him. Not on him. He was just doing his thing! But I don't think he was, because it was not a sustainable company and didn't grow and was deatined to fall.

It's be nice if they faced the consequences of their own idiocy as much other other people must.These guys don't have a thing, so they become dopamine junkies, instead of facing their own lack of creativity or......and rush ahead into empty shit.That's on the idiots who worked for him or with him.
