Well the more time you find to write a blog, the more "ass" worthy you become ... which enables you to move higher.

The MBA interns will be sitting and watching as you rise up.

Remember the air is thin up there and you might need some support.

Keep up the good work.

Average time - the actual writing takes any where between 10 to 30 minutes at most. The thinking takes place sometimes in real-time as I am writing (stream of consciousness style) and for others - its an idea that I may be chewing over for days, weeks and even months. I might make a mental note of it, put down the topic in my To-Do list or just talk about it and run it by friends. The actual writing is 10-30 minutes at most.

BTW - I would appreciate you leaving your name or other info when commenting.

Mohit - Yes, salesforce.com does not own the no-assholes moniker. My intent was to simply point out that we like to hire, reward and keep good people.

Anonymous - I don't practice all that I preach. If I did, I would be near perfect. I do want to practice all that I preach. I hope I get better at it in the next 9 years. Or sooner.

For the "no asshole rule" to be successful - there shouldn't be any asses in the first place.
