| It's Finally Over |
The 4th season of American Idol is finally over... Carrie Underwood, the country chick, won. God I hate country music, it sucks so bad that it actually makes me sleepy.
Anyway, is it just me or did they really need a 2 hour season finale? Blah blah blah. I don't need a recap of all the losers, I already saw them the first time around. I sure as hell don't need to see prior season losers either... William Hung anyone? Hey, Simon Fuller, do me a favor next year... keep the season finale to an hour!
Hmmm... what else is happening? Yesterday I was in a meeting with 8 others where we spent almost an hour reviewing a Power Point presentation. We discussed the order of the bullet points and debated over whether we should be using hyphens instead of slashes to separate words. I don't know about anyone else in that meeting but I have a growing to-do list of programs to write and reports to generate... I don't care whether we use hyphens or slashes!
I've been asked to mentor an intern that started last week. He seems pretty cool, we have quite a bit in common. The weird thing here is that I've only been with this new company for a little over 2 months and he's been with the company for 7 years. How do I mentor him? Also, why is a 7 year veteran considered an intern? Too strange if you ask me.
Either way, I'll do my best. Andy is the third person I've had the opportunity to mentor. I enjoy doing it and I think I've been doing pretty good job. Quang? Bill?
Oh well, it's getting late and I'm beat. More interesting thoughts to come as the spirit moves me. |

It's not about "length of time with company," it's about experience & maturity. I was with our little brand of hell for many years before you joined up, but they thought I was a untalented little punk who could benefit from Dave-wisdom.
Just be his friend and the rest will come with time.
