Grossly Competent

What's Crack-a-lackin, Listeners!?

In this episode of Grossly Competent, Steve goes ROGUE and tells Patrick that he's actually capable of learning something! And that something is called The Two Token Theory, an interesting take on how our reactions to problem-solving can impact how others respond.

But before that, Patrick brings up the life policy of DBAD when things go wrong and there is nothing that can control it. Plus, there's other stuff, like:

In this episode of Grossly Competent, Steve and Patrick set the record straight: They are not robots! Instead, they are Uggos sent from the basement of a townie bar to the modern world. (They can see how that could be confusing.)

While they aren't making Beeps and Boops or doing their best Tim Allen voiceover impression, the boys dive into benefits and disadvantages of Feedback in the Workplace, when to take it seriously and when it's OK to look beyond the noise.

And in case you're feeling extra wily and want to read up on NPS, here's a book.

In this episode of Grossly Competent, hosts Steve and Patrick beg people to stop trying to steal their (professional) stuff, man! Specifically, the boys chat about the issue that comes when people ask for their professional materials and what that's not a good idea in the first place.

On the way there, they talk about FOGO, DBTG, and any other acronym we can shake a Walkman at. It's an all-nonsense episode set to deliver more laughs than a burglar looking through Patrick's musical collection.
