People Who Love P&C

Thanks for the great article on Jorge! I love that he also promoted Q and IDEP - without even being bribed by me! Thank you, thank you.

This section serves to expand your regular vocabulary. What separates the men from the boys (or the women from the girls, if you want to equalize things) is v o c a b u l a r y. We cannot stress this point enough. People who have a larger vocabulary have been shown to make more money and get promoted more often.

Term Definition
acquiesce

(pronounce ak-wee-ESS)

Though this word looks like it might have some kind of relationship to water - i.e., aqua- it doesn’t. So get that out of your head. (Sorry we even mentioned it.) Anyway, when you acquiesce, it means that you comply with and accept an idea or situation passively, without a struggle or objection. Takin’ it eaaaasy.

Example: To hold on to his job (that he desperately needs), Gordon always acquiesces when his workaholic boss demands he stay late at the office, even on Friday nights.
