		Danihan on July 20, 2017 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: The Company Isn't a Family To me, the family analogy implies dysfunctionality, rampant gossiping and a general lack of boundaries. Team is a much better analogy. Hell, it's not even an analogy really, every company is literally a competitive team within the game of capitalism.

Hah, yes I guess it's what your experience with family was. Mine was good, so the term is something I can relate to.
