I have a friend called X, he is a loser but he doesn't know, loser are those who have, actually produce, but are not compensated in proportion to the value they create.The Losers like to feel good about their lives. They are the happiness seekers and do have loyalty to individual people.
When X began to work for his past organisation his boss a former middle-manager had just been promoted - primarily as passive pawn.The board never seriously considered A more than a temporary last resort and was soon relieved of the post by an Darwinian/Protestant Ethic will-to-power type who created a meta-culture a result of which X left the department.
I've met types like A, the ones who lack the competence to circulate freely through the economy, but have build up a perverse sense of loyalty to the firm, even when events make it abundantly clear that the firm is not loyal to them.
X has ended up working for a new organisation I wish him not to have a socipath as a boss. Nevertheless losers have two ways out: turning sociopath or turning into bare-minimum performers. Les dés sont jetés.
