> Let me tell you a story about one of my employees in the Philippines. I hired Klarc to help me build a habit: at 10:00 every day, he would call me and remind me to floss my teeth.

One day, at 10:32, I received a Skype message. "Excuse me Mr. Maneesh Sir (Klarc always called me sir, even though I asked him not to), I'm so sorry I'm late. We were hit by a hurricane, and the whole village has no electricity! I had to run 8 miles to the next village so that I could call you!"

Wow, how gross is every single aspect of this entire story?!
