Myths of Outsourcing

An interesting piece on IT outsourcing. This is something really close to everyone's hearts at the moment but as the author wrote, "The only constant in today's work environment is change." It's how you handle the change which really matters. Those who couldn't shape up might have to ship out.

Long Absence

 It sure has been quite a while since I wrote in this blog. Not sure why it was so, could it be because IE on my house computer screwed up or I was just plain lazy to write. Maybe I'm experiencing some sort of writer's block. Whatever it is, I've changed the look of the blog again, want to have a darker look on it. Just to recap some of thing that occured over the past month or so:
  • Abah & Cu came over here a few days ago. It was the first time I met up with them since they got back from Mekkah. We haven't travelled down to KL for a month now.
  • Awi got into an accident but she is okay. The motorcyclists she hit were not so lucky. Someone else was at fault but hopefully that person would've learnt her lesson and either she does something about her driving or better yet, hang up her license lah.
  • Adiknor is confirmed to be pregnant after 3 month's of marriage. The newly weds must be in a hurry. Also they got their wedding pics inside the magazine, Nona.
  • I'm settling down rather nicely in my new position. However, there are some unfinished business in terms of the management, hopefully the people at the top can clear things up quickly because us little people down here just want to carry on with our jobs. People who are dissatisfied should just put up with what's happening now and move on, for God's sake.
  • Greece, lo and behold won the Euro 2004. As usual England had to bow out, yet again on penalties to Portugal, who went on to meet the Greeks in the final.

A lot more had happened but I just couldn't be bothered to rack my brains remembering all of them. Hopefully, I can safely say, I am back at blogging after rather long absence.
