Responsibility

All FakeCo employees take an oath to be responsible for themselves.

What does this mean?

  • It means that when times are tough, we are responsible for addressing our own challenges, without waiting for someone to fix it for us.
  • It means that when we need something, we find it or make it.
  • It means that no one else defines our value or our worth.
  • It means that when we err, we practice mustering the strength to own up, learn our lesson, and right the wrongs, because these things are ultimately far more beneficial to us than souring situations with blame.

It’s a concept that we believe the world desperately needs more of.

Who’s going to fix it

Lots of us are unemployed or underemployed, or unhappily employed.

Lots of us are waiting for someone to fix it for us.

The problem, however, is that this is disempowering. Waiting leads to stagnation, fear, hatred, vulnerability.

Therefore, we must practice telling ourselves the following truths:

The government isn’t going to fix it for us.

Employers aren’t going to fix it for us.

Tech startups aren’t going to fix it for us.

We’re going to fix it for us.

How? By deciding that we have value to contribute to this world, and learning how to contribute it.
