Just another WordPress.com site. Giving In →. Newton’s Law of Charity. September 11, 2011. A few months ago the company I work for took a moment to recognize the work of one of its employees. He had been focusing the company’s efforts in response to recent natural disasters in Japan. One of the things he said has stayed with me:.

Just another WordPress.com site. March 30, 2012. My annual performance review is scheduled for Monday. I have a great manager and look forward to having little chats each year. Nonetheless, there’s a part of it that I haven’t quite gotten comfortable with: compensation. Professionally, the general consensus is that we should always be asking for more. We should outline our contributions and present our point for why we deserve bigger raises and bonuses. Do I really deserve more than I already have? The b...

New Merit Badges | A Thoughtful Spot
https://athoughtfulspot.wordpress.com/2011/11/06/new-merit-badges
Just another WordPress.com site. Merry Christmas →. November 6, 2011. One of my favorite weekly activities is spending time with our local scout troop. Over the past month it has been even more fun, thanks to the addition of two new merit badges. For those who haven’t yet heard, you can now earn merit badges in Chess. Both of which I enjoy a great deal. So far, our troop has been working to learn and practice chess. It has been a great excuse to have fun while learning. This entry was posted in News.
