Happy Halloween

PhotobucketSix months ago I got moved to North Riverside store. I never work in a store that is so close to the city. Halloween is definitive a different experience in the city than in the suburb. I have so much kids dress up and trick and treating to my store. Lots of great costumes, one of the best one I seen today is Jokers from Batman Black Knight.  This gentleman dress up from head to toes exactly like Heath Ledger.

I didn't dress up this Halloween not sure why. I guess I have no idea as what to dress up this year. Last year Paul and I dress up as Mario and Luigi

Driving on rainy day

I hate driving on rainy days. For some reason Chicago has been getting lots of rain this past couple weeks. I hate driving on rainy days, people just driving super super slow. Maybe I am an aggressive driver, but Come On !!! the speed limit is 35 miles / hours and people drive 25 - 30 miles / hours.

One day I was driving to my night class, what usually take me 15 - 20 minutes drive turn into 45 minutes drive. For some reason everyone just drive super slow, and the local highway just not moving. I have to take lots of residential side street in order to get to my class in time. By the time I get to the class I was so piss and angry of people, I can't even concentrate on the class (wow I have anger management problem )

GPS

A couple of weeks ago a friend told me that someone she knew had their car broken into while they were at a football game. Their car was parked on the green which was adjacent to the football stadium and specially allotted to football fans. Things stolen from the car included a garage door remote control, some money and a GPS which had been prominently mounted on the dashboard.

When the victims got home, they found that their house had been ransacked and just about everything worth anything had been stolen.

The thieves had used the GPS to guide them to the house. They then used the garage remote control to open the garage door and gain entry to the house. The thieves knew the owners were at the football game, they knew what time the game was scheduled to finish and so they knew how much time they had to clean out the house. It would appear that they had brought a truck to empty the house of its contents.

Something to consider if you have a GPS - don't put your home address in it. Put a nearby address (like a store or gas station) so you can still find your way home if you need to, but no one else would know where you live if your GPS were stolen.
 

*) Again  I get this from my other friend forwarded email. I really think this is important, I never thought of this before.

How to recruit the right person for the job ?

 

(I get this from my friend email forward - and I think it is hilarious) Corporate culture

Put about 100 bricks in some particular order in a closed room with an open window. Then send 2 or 3 candidates in the room and close the door.



Leave them alone and come back after 6 hours and then analyze the situation.

If they are counting the bricks. Put them in the ACCOUNTS DEPARTMENT.

If they are recounting them. Put them in AUDITING.

If they have messed up the whole place with the bricks. Put them in ENGINEERING.

If they are arranging the bricks in some strange order. Put them in PLANNING.

If they are throwing the bricks at each other. Put them in OPERATIONS.

If they are sleeping. Put them in SECURITY.

If they have broken the bricks into pieces. Put them in INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY.

If they are sitting idle. Put them in HUMAN RESOURCES.

If they say they have tried different combinations, yet not a brick has been moved. Put them in SALES.

If they have already left for the day. Put them in MARKETING.

If they are staring out of the window. Put them on STRATEGIC PLANNING.

And then last but not least.

If they are talking to each other and not a single brick has been moved.

Congratulate them and put them in TOP MANAGEMENT.
