They are not commodities meant to be purchased in bulk, exploited or exhausted, and then discarded, recycled, or resold.</p><p>Printer paper is a resource. Time is a resource. The company knowledge base is a resource. Fuel is a resource. Persons are not.</p><p>Persons are distinct, unique, thinking, feeling sentient beings. They are <u>resourceful</u>. They <u>use</u> company resources (and in many cases their own resources) in order to make your company function.</p><p>Stop referring to persons as resources. It is disrespectful. It is rude. It is <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/dehumanizing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dehumanizing</span></a>. </p><p>Until you stop doing so, I <em>will</em> be the person who derails every single meeting I am in by making this point every single time you do it.</p><p>XOXO,<br>A Person, Not A Resource</p>
