They say "Let your conscience be your guide", this is only 1/2 the story. You can't pull it out when you choose. If it is not operating 24/7 its as useless as a snowmobile in the Sahara Desert.

I never knew it was a requirement for executives to be contortionists, but it makes sense. How else would they be able to pat themselves on the back without breaking their own arms, or wriggle out of responsibility without any ill effect to themselves.

Decisions should be made by people using their brains, not be the calculated results off of a myriad of speadsheets!

They say into everyone's life a "little rain must fall",
Look, I can deal with a spring shower now and then, but I'm getting tired of being hit with a Monsoon!

Ok, it seems to me to be a standard trait of "Executive Types", If they can make all of these "Earth Shattering" business decisions,you would think they would be able to figure out how to make their own coffee, operate a copy machine, maybe even remember the name of someone who works for them, and figure out how to send an email to their own employee. Yeesh!

Seeds of doubt once planted are a lot like allowing crabgrass to overtake your lawn. Once entrenched it is much more difficult to remove than to prevent them taking root in the first place.

Theory of the Day;February 16, 2010: One of the definitions of Burden is "to load oppressively", so please, no more "Life is a burden" ,some events in life can be classified as a burden, but life itself is what you make it. It is only a burden is you wish it to be.

When the "Powers that Be" Closet themselves behind close doors, one of 2 things are bound to happening. 1) One of their big plans has unraveled and they are looking to extricate themselves from any culpability. Or- 2) they have a hair brained scheme they are planning to foist on someone which will no matter lead to #1 all over again.

The Difference between a Board Meeting and a Bored Meeting is very subtle, In the former the participants try to convince each other of their own importance. In the latter, they try to convince themselves of others unimportance.

Certain events in life remind you of a very important fact. You have control over very finite parts of your life. Events outside that realm are not controlled by us, nor should they be cause for worry. Live your life, not someone else's version of it.

In the midst of this Blizzard/Snowstorm- People use the phrase"Only Essential Workers"- Essential should mean "Potential life threatening"; Not that you might lose some sales for the day, Get a Grip dammit!

The word for the day is SNOW,SNOW,SNOW,SNOW: The weather version of a bad burrito- It just keeps coming back, again and again and again!

Monday;February 8, 2010:

Note: Theory of the Day for Monday :February 8, 2010 was cancelled due to Snow (actually I forgot about it, but I'm taking advantage of the excuse)

Hmmm- Mother nature is calling for 2 feet of snow, how appropriate. A snow job both in and out of the office!

They talk of the Calm before the Storm, Well today is the Storm before the Storm. The "Brain Crust" returns to create an upper level disturbance, and tomorrow Mother Nature does the same thing.

A definition update;There is a major difference between an excuse and a reason: A reason is an explanation of what transpired that caused a particular result good or bad, and accepting responsibility for it. An excuse is an attempt to explain away the same particular result in some manner and at the same time deflecting the responsibility elsewhere.

The phase"Office Politics" should be stricken from the "Slang Dictionary", no such thing, no one gets appointed by vote, there is no constituency. A more apt phrase would be "Office Underworld, as many businesses operate with the backstabbing, corporate prostitution and clandestine agreements to keep the "Office Dons" in power.

As a Managment decision goes awry, it is usually preceded by "fact finding study". this is to give the offending a clear path so he
doesn't trip over any obstruction in the course of back peddling away from his decision. (At least until he reassigns blame)
