In todays workplace, an 80/20 rule applies to the hire of qualified, motivated, and productive staff. That rule being that after one year, only 20% of those hired to do a job will still be there and producing. The rest get fired, fire themselves, or find a hole to hide in covered by some prefered status in gubmint speak.
That same ratio applies to the way they think, act, spend, save, breed, marry, and go about their lives. We live in a nation of 20% carrying the 80%.
