  Tags: spring (2), waiting   

  Waiting and getting 

  The best thing in waiting for something is the very first moment once you get it.

  I have been waiting for the spring for the last 6 months. Today it has come :-)

    I know exactly what you feel :) I’ve been waiting for it too… Strange, but it seems I now appreciate spring, sun and good weather much more than I used to, when I didn’t have to go to work every day…

  Organic or not? 

  I had a spare hour yesterday evening and a Tesco store on my way so I decided to stop and wander through the store.

  There a question suddenly bubbled up in my head: if there is a “organic food” section does it mean the food in other sections is not organic?

  I know the answer but do the people do?

    Heh, good point. It is more and more often that “mareketoids” adapt some catchy scientific terms for selling purpose. I’m sure you could find in this store a pair of “eco socks” as well :)

      And I actually hate “marketoids” as you called them as they think of us (ad targets) as brainless buying machines, which is becoming more and more real. That’s sad…

      By the way, let me look for these “eco socks” ;-)

  This is the end (of corporate life) 

  As many of you already know I will be leaving Sabre on March 15th. It has been about 2,5 years of corporate life in the very best edition which taught me one thing: I’m not a corporate beast. Although I really liked the people I was working with (it’s past as I’ve already left Sabre taking the vacations for 2 weeks) the corporate reality with its distributed responsibility and deep-tree structure doesn’t work for me.

  The time for retrospection will come soon, but for now I’m simply happy joining a small company! :-)

    Live long and prosper out of the corporate race :-)

      Thanks Dexter! As you know, there is only one corporation I’d fancy working for, but living with this dream would be probably better than actually making it real.

    Hi Jakub, I wish you all the best. It was good to have you with Sabre. People like you make the difference in a global player.
    See that you keep your eyes open for the beauty in our universe. Don’t get attached to any company – be it small or big!

      Thank you, Juergen! I was always pleased to work with you and hopefully would have another occasion – be it in a small or big company. :-)

    B2 is not the same place anymore :-(

    I wonder which one it is… :) I have a feeling it might be the one I would love to work for too…

      As far as I know you, this would be the same one :-)
