#43: The Happiness Factor
from The Warrior Poet Hosted by Sri
When you're a midshipman at the Naval Academy, you often recalculate something called "the Happiness Factor" to encourage yourself (or torture said self, depending on the circumstances). The idea that one's happiness is a calculable quantity somehow distinct from the self is interesting on its own. Meanwhile, Sri discusses how happiness in the workplace might not be all it's cracked up to be. EXPLICIT EPISODE: If you have kids in the car, we hope you’ll choose another.
