Scene: my school in 1988, I’m 14 Teacher: you’re pretty smart and get good grades, you could do anything with your life, what do you want to do? Me: Mess around idly doing nothing till I’m 35, then binge a TV show, get drunk, write an essay about it, and take it from there

I only read it this year. Started in the afternoon at work, completely rapt, finished it on the couch at home with the help of a bottle of wine to calm down. Great piece, gave me a fresh perspective on how companies operate. TY.
