Serious joke on attitude

Another edited post ..

Did you hear about the Nigerian widow who died and police discovered 27 billion $ in her mansion.. she was depressed and very unhappy and finally killed himself ... and the suicide note said..she was sick and tired of offering people money..and no one came and took it..no one believed her..i am sure she must have offered you no less than a 100 million dollars and you ignored it ... well that's that.. i could give the story a spiritual twist and say Gods grace is like that and we don't receive it because of the same attitude.. but nah..i wont say that..that's just too much of a cliche.. have a good day all..

The Hidden Risks of "Long Term Contracts" and How Modern Enterprises Can Protect Themselves - A Perspective from a Global CIO

The Hidden Risks of "Long Term Contracts" and How Modern Enterprises Can Protect Themselves - A Perspective from a Global CIO Long term contracts promise stability and predictability. They look neat in proposals and reassuring in boardrooms. Yet in practice they often become rigid, expensive and fundamentally one sided commitments that fail to adapt to real world change.

I had with me a small pouch that held my own little universe of everyday essentials. Chargers for my phone and Mac. A power bank. AirPods. Jabra earsets. Wired earphones. A writing pen. etc. All the things that quietly keep life running. At the start of the flight I slipped the pouch into the seat pocket.

It reminded me of how the Little Prince would sit quietly and think about life and his rose and everything that mattered to him. When we landed I automatically stood up and took my bag from the overhead bin. Habit took over. Tiredness also had a role.

Role: Often blend in just enough to avoid detection but falter when the tech talk gets real. Fraud IT Directors Characteristics: Possess the title, suit, and swagger, but it’s all smoke and mirrors. Role: Depend on meaningless graphs and presentations; disappear when things go wrong.
