Chicken Talk!

BARACK OBAMA:
The chicken crossed the road because it was time for a CHANGE! The chicken wanted CHANGE!

JOHN MCCAIN:
My friends, that chicken crossed the road because it recognized the need to engage in cooperation and dialogue with all the chickens on the other side of the road.

HILLARY CLINTON:
When I was First Lady, I personally helped that little chicken cross the road. This experience makes me uniquely qualified to ensure -- right from Day One! -- that every chicken in this country gets the chance it deserves to cross the road. But then, this really isn't about me.......

GEORGE W. BUSH:
We don't really care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want to know if the chicken is on our side of the road or not. The chicken is either against us, or for us. There is no middle ground here.

JOHN LENNON:
Imagine all the chickens in the world crossing the road together, in peace.

BILL GATES:
I have just released eChicken2008, which will not only cross roads, but will lay eggs, file your important documents, and balance your check book. Internet Explorer is an integral part of the Chicken. This new platform is much more stable and will never cra...#@&&^(C% .......... reboot.

BILL CLINTON:
I did not cross the road with THAT chicken. What is your definition of chicken?

AL GORE:
Chicken shall not shit while crossing the road. This is for a green environment..

LEE KUAN YEW:
We have installed crossing lights at all traffic junctions. All chickens should follow instructions while crossing the road.

SAMY VELLU:
Gantry points have been set up. All chickens wanting to cross the road are advised to top up their cash cards first.

NAJIB RAZAK:
What chickens? I don't know any chickens... especially those from Mongolia..

ABDULLAH BADAWI:
We have to be fair to all chickens. Some want to cross over the road, some do not. ........ Zzzzzz .......zzzzzz ....... Now what were we talking about? Ah yes, chickens. We will form a Royal Commission to decide whether it is right for them to cross the road.

MAHATHIR:
Now even non-bumi chickens want to cross the road! How can they disrespect and disregard apa nama bumi chickens? We must be allowed to cross over first. It is our special privilege and no one can challenge that!

ANWAR:
We have enough chickens waiting to cross over in September.

SHAHRIR:
All foreign chickens are welcome in Malaysia but they must not cross over the road within 50km of the border.

Minutes of a meeting 2

Today is Selangor’s public holiday but unfortunate enough for me, I still have to attend a meeting. As I said in my earlier post, I will offer myself to write the minutes of a meeting this time. Thus, I honoured my words.

Although I tried to note down everything (regardless if it is relevant to the agenda) discussed during the meeting, I was still very lost. I couldn't figure out what are M67, M68, I84, and IBS… etc, and because the whole thing was inter-related, I was led astray all along the way.

I have not started on the writing yet, but I don't think that the result will be optimistic.

I keep finding excuses for my failure... Is that true that I am really not fit to handle a simple task like minutes writing or is that because of I wasn’t involved during their previous meetings. Besides, the team which handle this case has been with the client for some time, can it be that because of inexperience with the client and smudged vision of the whole work flow affect my performance? I really don't know! I don't even know that whether I should proceed with the writing or not. I do not want it to end up with another round of disgrace!

Fine, I'll not give in! Perhaps I should spend some humble time with the experienced colleagues for enlightenment. Maybe I can find a way out from there... (They are all busy person, hope that they will be not be irritated by me asking them all sort of questions)

Writing minutes of a meeting

I am not quite a secretary guy and I was asked to write minutes of a meeting today!

Seriously, I really don't understand why my company wanted me to write minutes. They claimed that this is the best way for me to understand the whole project inside out. But honestly, I would rather prefer to do what I was hired to do.

Never mind writing minutes, the feedback i got for my minutes was my sentences were too general and my attention to detail were minimal. Please consider that this was like my second attempt in minutes writing and I wasn’t given any proper instruction on how to do it. To make matter worst, this meeting was like my first out of a dozen meetings they have been having with the client (I guess they probably think I could instantly pick up the whole scenario). So it was a serious OMG case for me... lol!

With all the negative feedback, I bet they wanted to train me more on minutes writing. They even conducted a very educational "lesson" for me and some other new staffs this afternoon on "THE IMPORTANCE OF MINUTES OF A MEETING" and "HOW TO TRANSFORM SPEECHES INTO USEFUL HANDWRITTEN INFOMATION".(I guess their intention to pull in some extra peoples was to disguise the idea of the "lesson" was targeted on me.)

Regardless, I know that their intention was good. Perhaps I was too much of an egotist to accept a simple task like minutes writing. I can't possibly give in; I can't simply let them think that I cannot handle a task like this.

And yes, I will be having another round of meeting tomorrow. Guess what, THIS TIME I’M GONNA OFFER MYSELF TO WRITE THEM A GOOD MINUTES, or at least I will try to write a good one. ^^
