    After some extensive scientific evaluation at the Bacon Lab, I can confidently declare this is urine. Not good.

    Back with another Q&A: how do you create processes that people don't hate and then how do you get them to use them? Also, how do you deal with the people who don't use the processes? I dig into pain, process design, muntzing, incentives, and more.
