Rules

Energy is all the rage at the moment with rising cost and rising dragons who hold on to prices and production and distribution chains. All the more when the electric car failed to start this morning. I know there is a set if ‘rules’ which I follow to ensure the…

Staying positive

It’s disappointing that I decided to discontinue a course. It is the first course which is part of a postgraduate degree in Human Resources Management. The course started in November but since January I have not been able to sustain good level of work on it. I don’t “need” this…

Leisure

Wild boar

For dinner I ordered wild boar tortellini at a French theme restaurant. The dish looked tame; it’s tortellini after all. I wanted to try it, evident of my wild side. It tasted fine, not overly yucky. A slight air of taste you get with lamb, the texture of pork, and…

Managers

Catch you out

One of my former managers made an incorrect assumption of my approach to work. I had no agenda or plan to change his perspective, and it took about 2 years for him to come to greater understanding of who I am and my role. Credit to him that since then…

Interview

Selected

I was selected as a tutor following interview. It was slightly astonishing that I got the role. More correctly, the interview itself was much less a pressurised experience than I expected. This is most likely because I am an existing member of staff, and also there is a change in…

Games

3 minutes

I had 3 minutes left in the game to complete and win the race. I was not at a good location and could not control the game fully. Completing this round of Real Racing 3 would win the car used in this game. A Formula 1 Ferrari. I tried it…

Managers

Coming and going

Continuing from  Monday. I am no longer holding on my previous job (probation). My approach is not to stew over things past. The opportunity that the HR rep spoke about, yup, that was truth, though it’s not “cast in stone” yet, in that the paperwork is not all complete. With…

Managers

Left, right, hope, truth

Not sure what to make of it. OK, get straight to the point, the job that I was on probation for, today was the last day and the significant manager informed me, in a meeting of four including me, that I don’t fit this job. Perplexed, I paused, or rather,…

Oxygen in the wrong place

The earth with the exact quantity of air, including oxygen, is quite amazing. It’s enough for all of us. OK, it’s more complicated than that. There is a kind of air regeneration cycle where oxygen is reproduced. I heard of an account where oxygen had been shot up to space.…
