I may not have communicated as clearly as I could have.
I’m not saying mindlessly accept a shitty deal. I’m saying that wishful thinking such as “it shouldn’t be this way and I’m going to pretend it isn’t” is not very helpful.
If you can turn such thinking into a useful action that leads toward the outcome you want or a general improvement, then that is great. But that isn’t always easy to do.
Sometimes you have to deal with bullshit because the result is worth it. Or choose another path entirely, realizing the trade off you are making.
