sometimes awkward

yes, well, when the boss makes a mistake (like not reporting a reportable incident like a small fire) and insists on defending her decision not to report is is awkward... it is more awkward when i did not know the incident was not reported and the incident comes up due to the auditor asking another director during the tour why there appears to be smudges in the room where the indent happened... and not knowing it was not reported and realizing the other director had already discussed the incident, i brought up the incident as an example of the excellent follow-up my boss and the place did in responding to and improving systems based on the incident (which is exactly what they were supposed to do and the auditor praised my boss for the work and the example of proof of the system working which is exactly they were asking for... but when the boss continues to try to justify not reporting after a surveyor says it is reportable, all i can do is shut up and ride through the uncomfortable awkward feelings and leave it for the boss to defend the decision not to report...

my way is to acknowledge the error and immediately correct it by reporting the incident... better late than never and error corrected immediately... bosses sometimes resist that way and debate with auditors, a choice that rarely benefits anyone...

i shall step back and let the situation play out... nobody's perfect, tomorrow is another day, and stay positive, right? :}

musical distractions

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)
