HOW TO PROPERLY PLACE NEW EMPLOYEES

1. Put 400 bricks in a closed room.
2. Put your new hires in the room and close the door.
3. Leave them alone and come back after 6 hours, then analyze the situation:
- If they're counting the bricks, put them in the AccountingDepartment.
- If they're recounting them, put them in Auditing.
- If they've messed up the whole place with the bricks, put them in Engineering.
- If they're arranging the bricks in some strange order, put them in Planning.
- If they're throwing the bricks at each other, put them in Operations.
- If some of the bricks are missing, put them in Logistics.
- If they've broken the bricks into pieces, put them in Information Technology.
- If they're sitting idle, put them in Human Resources.
- If they are looking for more, put them in Sales.
- If they've already left for the day, put them in Marketing.
- If they're staring out of the window, put them in Strategic Planning.
- If they're talking to each other, and not a single brick has been moved, congratulate them and put them in Top Management.

Choosing the major of my concentration

I started my MBA in July 2006 , at that time I thought I should concentrate on MIS, I took a couple of courses and then changed my mind and decided to go for general MBA.

Last quarter I took "International Marketing" course, and liked it a lot, and thought to myself that it's a new major and not so many ppl has it so I should go for it. So I went to the admission and changed my concentration to "International Business", but I got a B in that course coz I have a huge problem in memorizing stuff.

This quarter I am taking "International Corporate Finance" and I'm loving, I figured out that I love finance and I'm so good at it. I get it easily and enjoy it. Actually I knew that about myself when I took the "Financial Management" course, but I was told that I shouldn't depend on that coz I took that course with an American Prof. and they told me he was easy on us.

Bottom line: I have no idea what to do :D

Shall I go for International Business which will get me good job opportunities according to the face that it's a new Major in Jordan. Or shall I go for Finance which I really love and easily get, and will also get me relatively good opportunities but unlike the International Business.

Hoffft I'm confused :S

In love with cars

Cars are my passion, I just love them. I enjoy talking about them, reading about them, driving them, even looking at them. I can spend hours and hours discussing cars issues and I never get bored. My biggest joy was when I wanted to buy a car and went looking for one, I had to go alone at the end coz all my friends got really boerd and refused to go with me. It's in my blood. I loooove cars, I just wish they were a little bit cheaper so I can get dozens on my birthday :D.

Full of Happy Thoughts

There is this cool application on facebook that let ppl post their Honest Anonymous Opinions of you, without you knowing who they are.

Thank God I didn't get any disturbing comments so far, it's either that I am so nice and cute that ppl don't have anything but nice things to say to me lol, or that they don't trust this application and are afraid that one day their names will appear and they don't want that to happen so they just post nice things.

It gives you a blue highlighted text if it's a male and a pink one if it's a female.

Today I got the longest blue highlighted comment ever, and guess what?!?! It was about my blog.

This friend seemed really happy that he can deliver his comment anonymously, I have no idea why hehehe..

He said that he enjoyed reading what I wrote but he felt that I have this negative attitude in my writings.

Well, he is right, and I admitted that in my last post.

But I have a disclaimer to make regarding this issue; I have a very optimistic and positive attitude in life, especially the last couple of months :D I just come here when I feel down. It's only that I don't write when I'm feeling good, I donno why! I just don't.

If I was to write about the beautiful things in my life I would've written around 4 posts a day; coz life is full of beautiful things, and I'd rather enjoy these wonderful moments instead of writing about them.

Anyhow, for you my mysterious friend I will start writing nice and full of life posts. I will start to talk about my happiness as much as I talk about the ugly things in my life. I just wish that my words wont fail me.
