Casual Articles - Sending Mixed Signals Can Send Your Clients Away
The Bachelor - a popular reality TV show - offers an example of how we absolutely, positively should not make career decisons.Premise: A very eligible Bachelor (last season featured an NFL quarterback) stays in a mansion with several eligible young women. They seem to spend their days swimming, tanning, and speculating about the Bachelor's intentions. They meet the Bachelor in one-to-one and group activities. Each week the Bachelor gives a rose to the women who will continue to compete, and two who do not receive a rose go home.

I’ll never forgot the time I called my father from the restaurant I owned to tell him that I found my calling and was going to pursue a career as an author and speaker. His response was less than enthusiastic. “What the he_ _ are you going to do that for,” he said. “That will never amount to anything. It’s a load of junk. Just focus on your restaurant.” I hung up the phone and thought two simple words “Thanks Dad.”Believe it or not, I didn’t get angry at him for saying this. I knew he was just one of many negative people; I call Energy Vampires, that I would have to face on my journey through life. Unfortunately energy va

The guest saw a member of the hotel staff and asked, ‘Where can I find room 264?’The staff thought for a moment and replied, ‘Between room 263 and 265,’ and then walked off.It took the customer a moment to realize the absurdity of what he had just heard.

An interesting aspect of the proposed new Security & Exchange Commission (SEC) regulations on Executive Compensation relate to the need to supply justification for their decisions (see February 2006 issue for details of the proposed regulation). Currently, most Boards provide a written section, which discusses their general philosophy, such as “providing a total compensation package for executives that is competitive with a group of comparable companies”. In recent public filings, the narrative has even spelled out relative to the measures that will be used in evaluating the level of performance achieved, in order to show that
Recently, I ordered a new pair of prescription eyeglasses. The optician told me, "We will do anything to earn your business." At this point you might be saying to me, let the buyer beware. And if you did, you would have a good point. I was told the glasses would be ready in a week. They were not. I was told another week, but still no glasses.
