Unlike a Orovo detox, it is not hard to be a manager. To make sure you’re an effective manager, you got to have trust in your men. You need to guide them on you want them to do.

1. Manage them but do not micro manage them. Most of them do not liked to be micro managed. If they want to be micro managed, you’ll know that they will approach you on every little small issues. Chasing them over a small issue just isn’t what a manager supposed to do because you need to let your men be an independent over your organization.

2. Assert your authority but not up to a point that they fear you. You might threaten them but the end result is always ugly because some of them do not take threat lightly. Chances are, they will never ever give you the 110% you need. Always let them know what you need and give them chance to explain and do not always condemn or give them stupid answers or requests.

Sorry for not updating for a while. Everyday it’s like a hectic day and my weekends are filled with useless banter that forced me to participate, leaving me no time to blog. And on the weekdays, the work kept on coming that I had no time to even check my own blog. Enough about me, it’s time to enjoy Joann’s picture.

Joann’s session was interesting enough; we started off roughly about 8 am and ended up about 11 am. The whole event passed without us even realizing the time as she was so interesting to shoot. Talking about that, I’m heading to Sepang this weekend with Ashotiwoth. I just made sure that my car insurance is updated and ready to rumble the track.

This post serves as a quick notepad on my quest to get the following item to increase my Druid Bear tanking capability. Do not read this if you’re not a WOW player or even a Druid tank.

Want to know something that pissed me off? A few days ago I receive some email with attachment showing some guy proposing a a girl in our office. I wouldn’t care less but suddenly something caught my attention and I realized how wrong it is. If you received such mails, you know what I’m talking about. To those people who never received them, tough luck. I feel that I need to say something here to get it off my chest. Here goes:

This is for that guy. If you are going to propose to a girl, do it in a restaurant or in a garden for Chris’s sake. Don’t bother people over what kind of shit you’re doing. The worst part is proposing to a girl who looked like an elephant. It won’t be that bad if you’re proposing to a hot chick. If your future-wife looks like a pig, please refrain from doing it in public place. Think of the children!

The worst part is where these 40-50 nimwits are standing around them with cameras and video camcorder to record such events. In the office! During working hours! If they have nothing to do, they might as well quit and look for other job. It is because of them that we have our hands full working our ass off.

I can’t just imagine this guy taking his wife to Caribbean cruises. Is this another episode of Shallow Hal? This whole thing gave me goosebumps everytime I want to visit our second office.

Harrison Ford reprises his role as Dr. Henry ‘Indiana’ Jones Jr. Interestingly, he still has not lost his edge and this movie is superb. Between the first to the forth, I would still prefer Last Crusade, followed by Lost Ark and finally this show. With Transformer’s Shia Lebouf, this show has turned it’s funny side as there’s lots of laughters for many movie goers (with exceptions of Ah Bengs as these Chinese-educated idiots simple couldn’t comprehend the American one-line joke).

*Warning: Spoilers ahead*
