Following the theme..

Dave: “A people hire A people, B people hire C people. Always strive for the most excellence. Never be scared to work with people who are smarter than you. Never be scared to let others be smarter than you”

Daniel: “I’d go one step further. The best thing you can do is to work with folks that are smarter, or have better skills than you. It’s by far the fastest way to get better yourself”

Steven: “Besides, working with idiots really sucks. I feel my brain melting away every day.”

Don’t think I could say any of it any better. I’m certainly keeping this in mind as I continue looking for new employment. I want to work with people who are smart, who I can learn from and who I can respect. Not necessarily tech-smarts either. Just people who excel at their jobs and inspire me to excel at mine!

But many people seem to think that Gmail is, in fact, upping the email storage. That’s cool with me. Guess I really didn’t…

  • Weekend

    By the way, the outage was not planned, someone screwed up when they were doing some router upgrades. I can’t complain because the email server definitely does seem much faster today than it had been! Besides, I don’t have the time, nor the bandwidth, to tell you about all the times I went to “upgrade”…

  • Embedded XP?

    According to Cringely’s latest at InfoWorld, the soon to be released Dell PDA’s will be running an embedded version of Windows XP, not Pocket PC 2002. Could that be what’s keeping the price down? Should be interesting to compare the two I would think, although I think I’ll stick with PocketPc 2002 for my Xmas…

    Message to Angela: the copy of Mac OS X “Tiger” arrived safely at my office. It’ll be awaiting you when you get home this evening. Since I haven’t even installed my upgrade to VMWare 5.0 yet, I’m going to do that this evening, hopefully, and let her install Tiger, it is her Mac afterall. (But…
