I was supposed to be working on reviews but I fell asleep for a short nap watching cupcake wars and woke up in time for Chopped. Now I am just watching Sports Center while waiting on David Letterman to begin.
I will definitely have time to work on the reviews tomorrow and will probably take a day from the office to focus on those alone before the due date. I’m not trying to bore you to death I promise. It’s just that reviews are taken more seriously with our company than others. All the leaders are involved in helping understand the real contributions our associates make to the company. We help each other with identifying strengths and development areas as well as growth opportunities. It also gives other leaders insight into the associates in case they are looking to move into another area. We help with guidance on how to work together and help our associates grow personally as well as with their career.
A lot of time goes into writing, reviewing, editing and ensuring that the reviews are not just representing the history of the associate but it provides a path and marker for future progress.
I’m very proud of our company and the way we focus on our teams growth and development and its only getting better.
Enough of that, so, coaches are dropping like flies all over the NFL and college. This next year is going to be interesting. I am thinking if the lockout doesn’t happen, this might be Peyton Manning’s last season and I will have to look for a new hero to admire. Andrew Luck will be coming in at about that time if he doesn’t declare for the draft this year. If he does declare for the draft, I may have a use for the Panthers jersey I have since Carolina said they will pick him as their #1 pick this year. I don’t particularly care for that bit of news but hey, that’s something to root for. Andrew Luck is a great find for the NFL with Brady and Manning coming near twilight. Both great QB’s but everyone gets figured out finally: And these guys may not have enough left for more than a year and may not want to frankly. And btw, I had Andrew Luck on my radar a long time ago as I did Clay at Wisconsin and Poole at Tennessee. I’m in the wrong profession.)
I also like the Chiefs next year for the play offs and maybe the big game. They look good. They’re young, running well and the team is just working pretty good all together. If they true up that defense this year through the draft and some off-season transactions, they look good. Also, if my wife finishes my afghan in Chiefs colors, it’s a lock. I know this because I picked the Titans to go all the way this year at the end of the super bowl last year. Obviously, that didn’t happen. And it’s all because she didn’t finish my Titans afghan. So now, all that powder and dark blue, crimson and white yarn needs a home. But next year, the red, yellow and white will be supporting the Chiefs until Lovie is rode out of town and I hope Martz an Cutler go with him. (For my Bears pals out there.)
Now for the Hollywood segment. What the heck is wrong with Meg Ryan?!?!? I mean really? John Melencamp? And this guy, just separates from his wife and announces he is running around with her. I’m sick. Such a pretty woman whom I thought was smart but now I wonder if she hit her head back when she threw her head around in that scene at Katz deli in When Harry Met Sally. Enough of that.
Well, David is on and I need some dry humor to open up my brain waves and help me relax into oblivion for the night. I may have something more informative for you tomorrow yet tomorrow isn’t here and I ain’t promisin’ nothin’.

Oh no you aren't blaming me for the damn Titans not doing well this year...:P
ReplyDeleteBetween you and Vince Young they didnt have a chance. And now Jeff Fisher may be gone and they still have Randy Moss. Their doomed. Fisher leaves because of your blanket and I cant like them anymore. I have to prepare for Peyton leaving and Fisher going into broadcasting, I need a cheifs blanket.
ReplyDeleteLook at it this way, the better the cheifs are, the less you hear about the chargers. And oakland should be better as well and we can have another reason to fight during games with KC and Oakland being rivals. :-)
