HR Handbook for autocrats, section 1: Utilization of Dangerous Loose Cannons
If you’re a mobster who finds himself in charge of a country, the use of Dangerous Loose Cannons can be quite useful in carrying out your agenda. In this section we’ll discuss practical tips on attracting and retaining these useful followers.
First, you have to find some Dangerous Loose Cannons.

nytimes.com/2019/12/27/us/…
It’s best if your prospects have had some serious issues and are down on their luck - they’ll be grateful that you notice them and the on-boarding process will be markedly expedited.
The next step is to make the Dangerous Loose Cannons indebted to you. Take them to galas. Invite them to golf. Give them laundered money to spend. Make them believe they can hold elected office. Help them escape justice.

Footnote: if they actually end up running for office, be sure to get voter data and anything else that’s useful.
After the Dangerous Loose Cannons are fully invested in your operation, casually mention how you’d be so happy if x would happen; if *only* it were possible.
If Dangerous Loose Cannon is caught doing X, simply say you’ve never heard of him, and/or let the system take care of him.

The narrative that Trump had someone arrested in order to silence them was used for Avenatti, and is now being used for Parnas. I believe neither.
Every single civil servant in the United States takes an oath to serve and protect this country, not a personality. twitter.com/i/events/98009…
People like this—brave patriots willing to do the right thing; to tell the truth, even at great risk to themselves—are what Trump is afraid of. Not his hired goons.

If Parnas really thought that the truth was important, or that was was happening was wrong, he could have aligned himself with Yovanovitch & others to put a stop to it. Instead, he LOLed at threats to her life, gave Giuliani $, and is only talking now that he’s caught.
He needs to show some accountability and some remorse.
Understand that if the narrative that it’s all just a silly misunderstanding takes hold, any facts uncovered will become irrelevant in the public eye. What was going on with Yovanovitch is a BFD and cannot be laughed off.

This gives them cover, and if that’s the case, they’re using it right now. “Haha, he’s crazy; he’s a drunk; it was all just a misunderstanding, you see.” I want proof that Parnas was “disturbed” and made efforts to ensure Ambassador Yovanovitch was safe.
Career officials didn’t seem to think it was a joke and told her to get on a plane immediately. The texts are menacing and disturbing. Everyone needs to be questioned; her laptop and phone need to be checked.
It could be that Hyde pretended, or they purposely f*cked with him until he went off the deep end, then called the police. I’ll believe THAT before I believe Trump or Parnas, who have every motive to make us believe they weren’t trying to harm someone.

If you're interested in starting a career in Human Resources or in HR already, one of the key concepts you need to understand is Job Analysis.

I will do a thread later today at 8pm on what a Job Analysis is, how to conduct a Job Analysis. #HR #JobAnalysis
A pleasant evening, and welcome to this thread on #JobAnalysis.

I will share briefly on what job analysis is, the methods involved in conducting one, the probable steps, the uses and stakeholders involved in conducting a Job Analysis. #HR
What really is a job?

A job is a group of related tasks related to similar functions. Simply, it is the collection of duties, responsibilities, and tasks (performance elements) that are defined, specific and supposed to be measurable. #JobAnalysis #HR

Trump’s interaction with the foreign leader included a “promise” that was regarded as so troubling that it prompted an official in the U.S. intelligence community to file a formal whistleblower complaint with the inspector general for the intelligence community
😎WhistleBlower2😎

It raises new questions about the president’s handling of sensitive information and may further strain his relationship with U.S. spy agencies

IC IG determined that the complaint was credible & troubling enough to be considered a matter of “urgent concern.”
😎WhistleBlower3😎

The Acting DNI will testify publicly 9/26 re ithe whistleblower complaint.

The IC IG will testify in closed session tomorrow.

The WC involves secretive back-channel maneuvering, a possible threat to NarSec, & potential lawbreaking by Trump himself

X : Strategy, organisation and culture. Is there anything you don't use mapping for?
Me : I find it quite useful.
X : But is it right?
Me : Oh no, it's wrong. All maps are imperfect, all models are wrong. Someone will make a better map. If they don't, the field is a blind alley.
X : You find it a useful framework?
Me : Yes
X : But, you say it's wrong?
Me : Yes
X : Where is it wrong.
Me : I don't know that bit yet. Someone will find a better map and then we will know where it's wrong.
X : Isn't this like taking something on blind trust?
Me : How do you mean?
X : It's wrong but it's useful.
Me : I find it useful. You might not. If you don't then don't use it.
X : Doesn't it run the danger of constraining a view of the world to itself?
Me : All maps do that.

One question I often get to answer from early career professionals with keen interest for #HR is;

How can I develop myself to start a #career in HR?

I'll share briefly.

Skills & knowledge to develop to kick-start a career in #HumanResource.

A THREAD! #careeradvice
I believe what I'll be sharing will be relevant to you, whether you’re kickstarting your career in #HR or you’re a seasoned HR professional.

I'll share some of the most important HR skills and offer advice on how to cultivate them. #careeradvice
Averagely, there is a common misconception that HR professionals are often unprofessional and tend to abuse power - as much as I don't align with this, I believe those that have been culpable represent themselves and not the profession.

#HR is one of the best careers to pursue.

Section 4: The Fetishism of the Commodity and Its Secret
This section is written in a completely different, rather literary, style—evocative and metaphoric, imaginative, playful and emotive, full of allusions and references to magic, mysteries and necromancies.
There is a marked contrast with the dull accountancy style of the previous section. This is rather typical of Marx’s tactics throughout Capital; he often shifts linguistic styles according to the subject under consideration.

Section 2: The Dual Character of the Labour Embodied in Commodities
Marx begins this section with the modest claim that he “was the first to point out and examine critically this twofold nature of the labour contained in commodities. As this point is crucial to an understanding of political economy,” he says, “it requires further elucidation”
He begins, as he did in section 1, with use-values. These are physical products, produced by useful, “concrete” labor.
