The competent opting out
What happens with the competent retire, burn out or opt out? It's a question few bother to ask because the base assumption is that there is an essentially limitless pool of competent people who can be tapped or trained to replace those who retire, burn out or opt out, i.e. quit in favor of a lifestyle that doesn't require much in the way of income or stress.Feeling this one in companies I interact with and my own life.
These assumptions are no longer valid.

El Dorado West closed in 2017
Not exactly breaking news, but I was trying to go there and couldn't find it - I kept finding another El Dorado I had never known existed. Doing a little research, the family owned a mini-diner empire and got pushed out for a Honda service center. Very sad times.
