Rant & Raves

:: Listening … “Lonely No More” by Rob Thomas ::

During lunch I was having a conversation with a guy. Basically he told me a lot of things, and I wonder how come he won’t see the other side of the situation. Most of the problems are both-sided so he should open his mind and look at the situation, and come up with a method to correct the situation. Unfortunately, he didn’t do it, and he insisted on looking at the situation from his point of view, and he didn’t know other people will look at it differently than how he treated the situation. Basically, this is what I call “lack of management skill” syndrome.

Oh! Due to the “war” in the office, there was a staff took her annual leave because she just couldn’t stand the sight of the boss. But is running away from the problem a good idea? Or confronting the situation is a better solution? I am not the one with the rights to say it, but I do believe that taking “time-out” is a very good method to recharge yourself so you will be ready for the next “battle”. Of course, the situation cannot be solved easily so all they got to do is just sit tight and wait. I believe that (in this case) waiting patiently will bring very fruitful results.

On a different topic, I believe communication is a very important but difficult skill. Nowadays it seems like people has lost the communication required, so there are more misunderstanding, more fighting, and more troubles. Sometimes when one is giving an excuse for not communicating, it is just an excuse, not a reason. I love to communicate with people, but when someone is not even taking the effort to communicate with me, what can I do?

Suddenly I lack the motivation to drive back home. I feel so exhausted suddenly and all I want to do now is to sleep. Communication, anyone, please?
