Stranger danger always has some truth to it. The trick is that to get past hardship, cooperation is best. And so it is better to hold out a trusting hand, even if occasionally it gets bit. And if we can all embrace this, we can work together for everyone’s benefit. That’s how societies are formed. And the former how they are broken.

Yea this video was pointless. #1 factor of success is your likability ; ie also tends to determine your network/ politics. Biggest lie I was sold by my parents was “everyone dislike a brown-noser! Just work hard!”. LOL. Let the fools works, focus on brow ln nosing those above you / being likable to ppl who have something to give you = go the furthest. After all nothing seems to matter in this society except your success (career/money). ❤

She does not live in a place where children daily check for every single car to steal any random stuff , or, if something looks valuable, break the glass to try it.
Even if computer bag is empty. Even if phone is broken. They try anyway.
