    As a worker bee I’ve never really benefited from speaking up. At best, nothing happens. It feels like there’s only the potential for retaliation or blowback. Why risk it? Not my pig, not my farm. It’s not like I’m gonna get promoted. I’ll do what I’m paid to do but generally I keep my opinions to myself.

      Being the squeaky wheel never works out well. You’ll almost always face retaliation of some kind. I’ve always just quietly interviewed elsewhere and moved on down the road to a better position.
