Did I miss a memo?

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

After having internet connection outages during most of the morning yesterday, we had one at home last night. Weird, but it appears that everything is back to normal this morning. Work shouldn’t be too difficult today, I have a ton of work that needs to be done for both month and year-end, but none of it can be processed until after the 1st, which means today I blow it all off, and then cram it into Thursday and Friday.

Oh well, that means I can spend some of today studying, right? 🙂

  • What Do People Need to be Successful Working From Home? – It Varies

    Why it’s almost as if we should ask individuals what would help them, and within reason, provide that. After all, even within each age group, parents might prioritize something different than single employees, or those sharing an internet connection and space with a spouse or roommates also working from home might prioritize something else. Some may want to adhere to strict 9-5 hours so that they can spend the rest of their time on childcare or side-businesses, while others may value the ability to take a couple of hours during the day for schoolwork and then pick up work again in the evening.

    We would do well to listen to what people need, talk about what we expect, and also understand what we are doing with our own actions.

    Got a surprise break away from the world of computers this evening. Some very dear friends of ours decided to have a surprise dinner a couple of days early for my birthday. Thank you, Mary and Howard, for a wonderful treat, and thank you, Angela for helping to arrange it. They have just returned from…

    There’s a nice little call for boycott going on over at Spyware Info. Looks like some company is trying to trademark the word “spybot” and is threatening legal action against the makers of SpyBot Search and Destroy. The article has all the relevant info.. Follow these topics: Uncategorized
