I've been thinking a lot about this lately because I've noticed we in tech get to make so many of our own decisions, in a way few other fields enjoy.
Whether I'm talking to a contractor who's going to work on our house, a teacher at my kid's school, or a doctor guiding me through medical issues, I *always* have a say. And in the rare cases I don't, I get a full briefing on the choice and why it had to be made.
I think we forget what a privilege that is, and often, abuse it.
