Zee Plan...

I "plan" to post at least once a week now... maybe twice if you're lucky. I might post random stuff that doesn't matter sometimes, but we'll see.

POSTING DAYS ARE MONDAYS because most people spend their Monday's reading stuff on the internet any way.

*All statements subject to change without notice. No returns or exchanges. Not to be used as a flotation device. Do not pass go, do not collect 200 dollars.

I love "casual" businessmen in their perfectly fitting pants/collared shirt/no tie combo, with really expensive shoes

They frequent the deli downstairs, no a days, business isn't just about the suit, it's also about proving you don't need to wear a SUIT you just need to have a good idea and lots of other nicely dressed guys standing around you telling you what a good idea you have.

Today's topic of conversation: 70,20,10, Google's big business idea.

"It goes something like this, spend 70% of your time on your main project, 20 percent of your time on related projects to your project and 10% of your time on something else, let me think, something...well I can't remember, but it's something."

They walked away but one trailed behind waiting for his BLT. I smiled at him and said "It's 10% on brand new projects, new ideas... thinking outside 'the box.'"

He *Googled* at me like I was crazy because 1. I knew and 2. I was obviously listening to their loud conversation. Then he laughed "I'm totally going to sound smarter then him when I get back to the office."
