First, Break All The Rules


This is part of the brainwashing I got slightly before I left. When I walked into the wrong meeting and stayed at the wrong meeting.

First, Break All The Rules : What The World's Greatest Managers Do Differently by Marcus Buckingham & Curt Coffman

This was the book that Rooney went to 3 different bookstore and was informed that they are fresh out of stock. The next shipment won't arrive till.. god knows when. Rooney shared frustrations with me over the last 5 days I was with the tower.

And knowing me and my weakness for books, (actually the smell of new books) I went to Kino and took up 2 copies. One for me, one for Rooney.

Should be an interesting read.

Oh, yeah... I was calling because I wanted to tell you I got a copy of "First, break all the rules". I wasn't sure if corporate actually shared to say this was a textbook study for all Managers. I'm sharing just in case, you'd like to check it out and share with the rest of us who is not part of "The World's Greatest Managers"

Some of us are part of the food chain that is dispensable. Some of us, make effort to stay afloat. Some of us, hold the line. Some of us, send in our infantries to complete the mission.

This evening Boss was commenting that the song that was playing was ancient. She remember hardly being in her teens when she heard the song the last time.. It couldn't be that old, coz I know it. And I said it, "Bobby Brown's Don't Be Cruel? It was THAT long ago?"

And she replied, "You're different. You're an old girl."

Ouch. You tell me, comparing Rolling Stones and Bobby Brown. And she calls me old.
