Do the Dew

Mountain Dew is a popular citrus-flavored soda with a bold, refreshing taste that has captured the hearts of many, including my own. It is like nectar from some divine place other than earth. But, I digress...

Originating in the 1940s, this vibrant green drink has become a staple in the beverage industry, especially among young adults and extreme sports enthusiasts. Its unique flavor, a perfect blend of citrus and sweetness, sets it apart from other sodas.

Mountain Dew offers a variety of flavors, including Code Red, Baja Blast, and the new Mountain Dew Zero Sugar - which is disgusting, but surely you don't drink Dew for it not to have sugar, eh? But they cater to diverse tastes. This iconic drink is not just a beverage but a lifestyle choice for many, often seen at gaming events and sporting activities.

Nothing Bundt Cake

I swear to tell the cake, the whole cake, and Nothing Bundt the Cake.

Questions

I once worked with someone that was really great at what they do, however, a fatal flaw they had was that they always followed something up with a question. Sometimes that is good and necessary. It clarifies and specifies. But when you pose a question after everything, it begins to lose the desired effect. The questions are answered infrequently because people become numb to the follow-up questions.

Sometimes, take what your boss says, and just do it without asking questions. Grab the situation and own it. It's not that you shouldn't ask questions or raise objections, but doing so every time can distract and delay.

Hemingway

She made things easier so that there was last night and this afternoon. She is a damned sight
more civilized than you are and she knows what time is all about.

Ernest Hemingway, For Whom the Bell Tolls, pg. 175, loc. 2833. Kindle Edition

Where's the Joy?

There are a couple of people in my circle trying to manipulate me.
And there has been a void in my life, a notable absence, of joy. The two are related.
I need to disassemble things and take a good look and see if I can correct the situation.

Meetings

In my position, meetings usually prevent me from completing work and add to my task list. For other people, it seems that the meeting is what they consider working. Tangible versus intangible. You could argue that being a leader requires more meetings - that it informs the leaders, and is an environment of idea generation. Sometimes, it prompts people to be prepared for their boss, which is a good thing. My experience is that most meetings don't need to be held, and it's unfortunate if it takes those meetings to prod some people into being productive.

And while leaders tend to have more meetings, naturally, I believe if all they are doing is having meetings, something isn't right.

But, hey, I'm no Jack Handy.

Zones

Man, time zones suck. I miss the universal nature of the 24-hour clock, be it GMT or Zulu.
