Time

If you are on a round the world cruise how do you keep track of time? How often do you reset the time on your watch?

Elections 2010

Julia Gillard and Tony Abbot are equally bad. I think I'll vote for the Greens!

Cricket

Howard loses bid to become president of the International Cricket Council - What do you know, there is justice in this world!!!!

Dirty Politics

Another reason why I hate politics! Kevin Rudd was elected by the people and the people should have been given the opportunity to re-elect him or reject him. And that opportunity would have presented itself sooner rather than later as an election is due anytime in the next 8 months! While I am happy that Australia has it's first woman Prime Minister, it appears that Julia Gillard has snatched the position rather than being chosen by the people or in effect "earning" it.

You still have my vote Kevin!

Work Life Balance

An interesting take on the subject.

Can you ever have work-life balance whether you run your business or work for a corporation? If you work for a corporation, is it easier if you work for a large macro-managed one compared to a smaller micro-managed organisation? Is it better to be in a government job which offers you job security and regular working hours compared to the hurly burly world of corporate life? Is it the flexibility of working hours or the option to work from home? Does the need for work-life balance become more pronounced or relevant once you have kids?

In every scenario you win some, you lose some but are you happy with what you lose?

Is achieving work life balance akin to attaining Nirvana?
