This may sound harsh but I think you need to set limits on how long these people can complain about certain topics and also tell them that some topics are just off limits. If they can’t stop complaining after that, they should look for different work.

Chris – I agree with you. An MBA degree can help fill gaps in your education. Just don’t believe the MBA marketing that it will launch your career into the stratosphere. That depends on much more than a formal education.

I wish Larry Hama gave Snake Eyes/Scarlett more scenes like this because he hasn’t done a thing with them since the 1990′s or even in 2010 when G.I. Joe went over to IDW.

Seriously, out of all the movies at your disposal…you go with Conan? Then you go with the remake rather than the original. I understand, I am a neebie to this site therefore acknowledge the need to establish tenure. I have to admit that I did watch the movie but to use it as an analogy for product management, boo!

Very well informed article. My background is in marketing campaign mgmt, and I was recently approached about a Product Marketing Mgr role. Until I read this article, I did not feel like a strong candidate. I totally possess all of those characteristics! Most importantly as a specialist in consumer behavior, I have the most important experience, the usability experience. Thanks so much for connecting the dots so eloquently.
