Tick Tock – Tick Tock


Time marches forward. Sometimes it feels like it is racing. Sometimes it feels like it is crawling. Sometimes it feels like it is lurching. Today is Friday the 13th – that doesn’t concern me at all. What does concern me is that the next workday is 16-March. With the [...]

Time Marches On


I continue trying to push forward on my SAP Start-up Team activities but with what feels like limited progress right now. I am so involved in trying to move things forward on a day-to-day basis while the longer-term, organizational structure is being put in place … that I seem to not be making any [...]

Daylight Savings Time Already?


Just heard from some folks that the US switched over to DST. Wow, what a surprise. Of course, it would have been nice if one of my family members had told me. Indonesia, like most countries, do not have DST … thus, unless somebody says something to folks like me, we [...]
