Nico: I disagree, being poor in the real world is when you have no food, not being able to pay bills and rent, loosing your apartment, stuff like that. Everything else surrouding it is of no relevance whatsoever. 3D and photography is no richness at all, it ain't filling up a empty tummy everyday.

sandykoufax: You being poor ? i highly doubt that! more like the reversed.

Anyways, i will not hijack this thread anymore and get shit for that on the other forums. So expect no further replies about this on here. Sorry

Just trying to cheer you up a bit max, i understand what you mean

indeed sorry for the hijack

lets cheer up guys!

How to recruit the right person for the right job.



Put about 100 bricks in some particular order in a closed room with an open window. Then send 2 or 3 candidates in the room and close the door. Leave them alone and come back after 6 hours and then analyse the situation.



If they are counting the bricks. Put them in the accounts department.



If they are recounting them. Put them in auditing.



If they have messed up the whole place with the bricks. Put them in engineering.



If they are arranging the bricks in some strange order. Put them in planning.



If they are throwing the bricks at each other. Put them in operations.



If they are sleeping. Put them in security.



If they have broken the bricks into pieces. Put them in information technology.



If they are sitting idle. Put them in human resources.



If they say they have tried different combinations, yet not a brick has been moved. Put them in sales.



If they have already left for the day. Put them in marketing. If they are staring out of the window. Put them on strategic planning.



And then last but not least.

If they are talking to each other and not a single brick has been moved. Congratulate them and put them in top management.

So, if they build a barbecue pit out of them, do they get to be CEO?

[ivox3]

nah, ....that's too much work and CEO's have their nails done.

If they get somone else to do it, ....then ----- yeah.

Ah. But it's not the actual building of the barbecue pit - it's the vision. Someone who can envision weilding the tongs over massive amounts of burgers and dogs at the company picnic. That's who should be in charge.

Some CEO's actually kick a_s. .....but many just ride on the input/efforts and acheivements of countless others and never attribute success to anything other than their own perceived brilliance. ....but I think those are the ones that end up in hand cuffs. .........

Or just out of business. A good CEO can recognize (even praise) the strengths in others and use them to the company's best advantage. A bad CEO could be surrounded by brilliant people, but regard them as pieces of meat and get next to nothing out of them. I've worked for both. And they know who they are.

[ivox3]

Yep.

I guess every country is proud of themselves. I read a report here in the USA that we work the most hours per person of any country. The official work week here is 40 hrs, but a study came out saying that most professionals take at least 10 hours home every week.

You should take a look how many hours the people work in China, South America, India, etc....50 to 60 average Monday to Friday...and another 12 hrs during the weekend.

Where did you get that information? ..In my experience working in USA it's totally opposite...I'm sure that they counted all the breaks (smoking, drinking coffee, taking with everybody....and of course "working in something")…this study should come from those orgatizations Pro-America.

[Leonardo]

I got one more

If they spend years developing the bricks, but never release them.... Put them on the Next Limit team

sorry!
