Meritocracy

Culture

I died on the culture hill

I died on the culture hill Twice.

Don’t die on hills.

Give up?

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, And wisdom to know the difference.

And wisdom to know the difference.

“Change your job, or change your job” Some Famous Devop
