Cada ocasionalmente la verdad verdadera sale. Una vez que mientras que estaba en escuela del grad (en el NIU ahora infame) que escribía mi tesis en cultura corporativa tailandesa/china mi consejero de la tesis rompiera su façade académico y diera vuelta a mí y dicho, “es todo el B.S. justo. ¿no es?
