Recently…

.. have been busy handling two projects at the same time. Going home drained, and no matter how much I sleep on the weekends, there seems to be a huge sleep debt that I just cannot clear.

We did extremely well on the first session of Karazhan on Friday night, breezing through the whole instance and nine bosses within 4 1/2 hours. One shotting every boss, even manage to down two new bosses Nightbane and Illhoof. It was a very major achievement and I personally do not think it might be repeatable again. Anyway it gave me time for the whole of Saturday and Sunday to do other things. The guild started another session of Karazhan with alternates and players that could not get into Karazhan in the first place.

It seems like managing the guild is even harder than managing in workplace. So I was not surprised to see the research paper from IBM that says the future business leaders will come from the online worlds. The research paper is a fascinating read. 

The possibility of working overseas next year is getting more and more real, and I might have a choice of the place where I want to be. I will see how the events develop in the next few months.

    They are meant to do their job because they are paid for it. But those in the guild are not being paid, so have to find other means to motivate/push/drive them.

    If they are paid and they don’t do their job, you can always retrench them. :P

    The world is changing. Nowadays, paid to work still must beg nicely sometimes. Boggle.

    Heh then you should drive in the message that they are being paid to do their job, on their own without you begging them.
