Technical Advise Week #27/28/29/30 - Responsible

Sorry for such a long time in posting to the blog. Travel, business commitments and attention to customer matters prohibited us from being 'responsible'. Yes, the word for the week(s) is responsible, and we must admit we weren't responsible. Since it's an election year we hear allot of fanfare concerning the candidates and how people are exercising their 'right' to vote. Yet it appears that their behavior is neither respectful, informed, experienced based or responsible. We make this comment, not because of our candidate not being formidable, but because it seems that responsible behavior is as missing as 'common sense' (which we believe now can be called uncommon sense). Even when someone gets caught red handed in a controversy, rather than acting in a responsible fashion, their sin is simply passed off with a 'I'm Sorry'. The reality is that they are not, and there lacks any form of remorse... so we say, "Act Responsible". My gosh, in most cases neither the penalty or the admission will result in anything different except that responsible behavior expunges the soul. In IT we have to active responsibly. No wonder IT leadership is reluctant to support us after having lived a lifetime of irresponsible behavior. Then we have a sudden burst of truthfulness we are confused by the lack of support. Maybe if we had acted responsible we would be feeling better about ourselves, and allot less concerned about what others might feel or think.

Mom & Dad returned from a successful business trip to Hong Kong and providing services to their growing clientele. A whole new batch of COOPMs were certified and steps are underway to release the GSC in North America. The work isn't done, but we hope that we are on the edge of making a difference in the world of IT, one that we have dedicated much of our life to. Till next week... Max & Mabel.....................OUT!
