Try going the full circle“.  This will make it possible for you to end up exactly where you started many months before.

Hence a reasonable question would be to ask : Why even start ?  Why initiate and do the task or set of tasks.  Yet you will find more than one management clone type that while they throw out buzz words of “efficiency“  and ” effectiveness“  while in effect have you waste your  (limited ) time and energy doing non-productive , low value tasks .  Its all about power and power over others.

A lesson of life , which if learned early in a lifetime or work career, is perhaps more valuable than all the raises and bonuses and platitude that a company , organization or manager can bestow on you,  That is as human beings we control very little in life .  Often we cannot even control ourselves and our actions ,  Hence if we cannot control ourselves , then how can we have any luck or effect “controlling others” ?  The point is we cannot.

And yet many try this very path of life – to the very gates of insanity or to positions  in management itself.  Its as if trying or insisting a “Ford” or “Mercury Man“  drive a small Japanese Honda Ridgeline truck or a econobox Hyundai car.  It just is not going to happen.

If management needs a delay – not like President Obama with mucho scandals – “Fast & Furious” , Benghazi, IRS at the “Tea Party” etc etc with more to come , the management committee can always scream out “research”  or “send it to the research department”

Not to be said  that in 2013 that one person with an internet connected computer , laptop or iPad can conduct tons more effective research than a whole institute could of accomplished not long ago.

Its as simple a statement as that.

It can be said that when it comes to these abusive , bullying  management /supervisory  like  types nothing beats the power or powers of listening and active listening.  The word to the wise is rather than opening your mouth and expounding all – its better to listen  and perhaps add a few question to start or initiate the discussion or debate. How else can you study your enemies in order to later control or perhaps defeat them.  Dummy up and be quiet. Its as simple as that,

By being quiet you are in a better situation to judge where the other party goes on pontificating again and again with little depth or no comprehension at all of “what they are talking about“.  By you talking might not catch this and be fooled. By being silent these morons will give themselves away – while you shake your head at this apparent stupidity.

From an authority book for management to learn how to deal with and perform well at meetings - even if their “A type personalities”  demand they “do something”  rather than “talk” the advice is given .  ” There will be times when it will behoove you to look important, holding this pose for perhaps several minutes at at a time.  This might be the case , if you are chairing the meeting.

The report goes on further – “The best way to create an impression of  of omniscience is not not by talking but by listening”.  There is the gem .  Listen .  Even as hard as it is “Keep your mouth shut”.  Don’t be a chatterbox and spill the beans.  On top of that as Abraham Lincoln is credited with a saying “It is better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you are an idiot ( or mor0n) it is better to keep your mouth shut and let them think so , rather than dispel all myth by confirming what they suspected as apparent fact“  ( the quote is paraphrased in more modern words and vocabulary current in 2013″.

Just to restate and repeat . “The best create a powerful image and impression of omniscience is not by talking but by listening.  Listening beats talking every way , every time.  Without saying one single solitary word, you can still convey the idea that you have information, not readily available to just anyone or anybody”.

Or as is often put “Those that cannot do teach ( manage or supervise)”.

There is an old expression taught by a long term business master .  He would note that i learned a long time ago when the guys from head office were lying to me .  How could i tell – “their lips were moving”.

In the same way it can be said that figures ( or statistics)  don’t lie …. but liars figger.  Simply put another way by Woody Allen .  A stock broker / mutual fund salesperson /  financial ( ?) planner is a professional who invests your money till its all gone.

Yet in business ( or politics)  its not so much the story …. but rather how you tell it.  Take for example the public relations guru James – “Spin Doctor“  James Carville  who recently expressed his concern on the President and his hopes for the upcoming November election – not on its effect on the US economy or real people suffering but on the story – or wrong story being told ( at least in his mind and expertise )  by President Obama.  Its not the substance being sold or told but rather which tale to tell to fool people.

I guess we should all be out there job shopping none the less.  And if not in Washington DC where the real sharks are- perhaps up in Winnipeg or Manitoba Canada where the job shops and job banks might be  a tad tastier and easier.

Click hereDownload hereDownload Mozilla Firefox here.

Yet it can be said that little is as peruasive as a long collumn of facts and figures.  All in all these compliations can be just so complex as to be next to be impossible to follow.  A real bluffer’s tale none the less.  Yet no one – is about to take issue with facts  – or so called facts – especially when they are backed up with by computations , equations, exptrapolations , extractions of roots – and all in the form of a polished Microsoft Powerpoint presentation or presentations.  It might be a wiser idea not to rent executive temporary office space in after all.  Perhaps one should check first on commercial office rental office rates in & none the less.

Again figures never lie , but liars “figger”

Its all higher forms of expression , global warming and Albert  Einstein or Zacharias Sitchen  themselves.

Its an amazing fact of life.

As people , managers and “bosses”  go through life a whole mythology develops. Its not unlike in “Fiddler on the Roof”  the phrase ” If your rich …. they think you really know”  is akin to the boss or experienced manager having “insight”

“As your boss / leader its my job to provide vision”.  To be the “thinker”.  Yet when asked these types become almost evasive.  You want me to use my “crystal ball”. (?) .  Yet all the time these types who all the time portray that somehow they know more than everyone else – shy away from purveying the insight gleaned by years of experience.  “In this business you are either moving forwards or backwards there is no standing still” “rah rah rah”.  Yet when pressed for insight – there is little.

Is management by consensus a good idea ? Put another way is the glass half full or half empty – or is the girl ugly ?
The answer essentially it all depends on the situation / situations and context. It is often laughingly said – that no woman is ugly after 2 am on bar closing.

Yet overall “consensus decision making” is in many cases and situations a not good or even tragic bad idea when :

1)Essentially the workers delegated to or worked with are clueless , incompetent , not fully trained non or un-motivated or simply could care less. If so its a situation of placing monkeys at keywboards or old fashioned typewriters . Given enough time and trial it seems these monkeys should by chance be able to emit Shakespeare or Windows 8 computer coding.

2) Secondly what about management supervision and accountability. Otherwise its a situation like President Obama or left wing democrats who continue to tell tales where no one is held accountable what so ever. Its manyana in Mexico – money and time continues to be thrown down the “crapper” without any accountability of decisions being held for results and the vehicle aimlessly drives off the cliff.

There aught to be a law so to speak.

Never mind your boss or the workplace.  For starters in 2012 take a gander at the political landscape.

Its worse than a case of “monkey see monkey do”.  Its research by populism, give the voter or customer what they want to hear , and then public relations lie . lie ,lie.

It used to be said , in the heyday of Japanese potential domination of the US marketplace and even fears of world domination that “they ( in the case the Japanese ) think or thought different than us.  That is a westerner or US / Canadian European schooled person would walk to the west and say i am traveling / walking west.  In the case of the Japanese it was said that there logic could be to do one thing and believe another at the same time concurrently.  That is , in this example , walk in an easterly direction and then bluntly inform you with a straight face that “they were walking west”.  Their minds and logic it seems allowed them to think and hold two different divergent views at one time – neither being wrong.

Yet American politicians can hold hundred of views all at once with no apparent mental conflicts. We are finding and developing more gas – while the drilling , approvals for drilling , refineries being shut down and major pipelines from Canada being refused .  Somehow Obama says this with a straight face.

Then we have the now “gay marriage issue “.   Two weeks ago it was birth control pills for women  because political research had told the democrats that they could gain Republican voting Roman Catholic woman votes this way.

Yet the other side – the Republicans sit back and are part of the game.  What of Solyndria solar panels et al ? Not one word of the cash pushed over to buddies and donors here.  Its as if  the donut shop style of management all over again.

The game is over boys – no more 2 drugstores in a country town.  Start looking over your shoulders.

Its a new game in town – not only will we get rid of jerk bosses at work and the workplace – we will fire your boss.

 

Its time to fire your boss – and give them the bum’s rush

Your mother most likely told you not to “throw money out the window”. Yet everyday and every month average ordinary Americans and Canadians waste needlessly hard earned after tax dollars by paying extra banking fees, service charges and interest that they don’t need to. This is no doubt “wasted money thrown out many many windows”. Have an understanding and comprehension of banking rules and systems as well as how bankers and other financial institutions and charge companies think and apply these rules. You will save yourself lots of cash, keep money in your bank account and save much wasted time and needless aggravation.

Payment is Due on the Due Date:

First things first. Understand the basic rule number one of banking fees and payments. Pay your bills, or at least the minimum payment by its due date. To understand the rigid mind of bankers and accounting types you must comprehend that they think in very black and white terms. Two and two is four, Jan 1 is January the first and there is nothing to discuss. It might be said that some people have children and other people have accountants and accounting types. It’s a rigid way of thought pattern. Regardless bankers, accountants and collection due department people generally fall into this mold of thinking patterns. Bankers and accounting systems think in 30 day months, 90 day quarters and 360 day years. It’s not variable or up for discussion. Hence the best and only policy is to pay your bills on time – or even ahead.

Bankers & Lenders Will Expect Payment on The Due Date:

This is essentially a simple restatement of rule number one – that is to pay your bill, bills or statement on time. Bankers and lenders will expect payment on the due date. You and count on this as a truism of the universe. What this means to you is that bankers and other lenders of money and capital can be counted and will continue to employ their basic procedure of counting exact dates when a payment or payments are due. It simple. In business when a demand note is due in 30 days, that is precisely and exactly when the banker, Charge Card Company or other financial institution will expect payment. Count on this. Excuses are neither allowed nor tolerated – well at least not with those extra charges, fees and interest payments that you are trying to avoid.

In 2012 Many Financial Institutions Demand Payment a Few Days Ahead of Due Date for “Processing”:

In 2012 a new wrinkle has appeared on the horizon as a means of dinging you and your accounts extra and additional service charges and fees. Many companies now will insist and demand payment a few days ahead of the stated due date or you finds extra fees on your next billing statement. It’s maddening but what can you do. It seems what is good for the goose is not good for the gander. If July 1 as a stated due date is the deadline for payment by the banker , and its not negotiable or variable at all , how then can a bank or lender demand payment for that July 1 due date by June 27 or bump you with service fees. If it was sitting at your bank perhaps, yet this is the case regardless even if you drive over to said bank and male the deposit directly into their account at their location of business or ATM.

Summary:

The summary is that to avoid extra and additional banking fees and surcharges pay all bills on time, and if possible ahead of time. You are doing this firstly to eliminate any chances of extra fees, surcharges and interest – which if you follow banker’s rules you should avoid and not have to pay. These fees are wasted, hard earned after tax dollars income. Why waste money and spend money you don’t have to. If you cannot pay the bill in full, then at least pay the minimum required payment or payments. Secondly and perhaps even more vital by keeping clean accounts you will keep your credit score and credit record intact and shining. You never know when you may want to make a large loan – for a business, new home or new car. No doubt any banker or financial institution involved will do routine credit checks on your credit history. If you have paid your bills on time you will come as a shining example of a fine person with an unblemished and excellent credit history who should not be denied the loan or finance arrangement.

 

Paul G. Prairie

Many auto shoppers want easy convenient one stop shopping for both their car or truck as well as credit financing.

Yet prairie advises its best to shop around for auto & truck financing.  While you may drive off the dealer’s lot with “instant credit” terms . Yet this may not be the best deal for you or your family budget.  Take the time and extra effort to visit , email and phone various reputable Alberta financial institutions.  If well worth the extra effort, to reduce your payments and cash outlay from your pocketbook and families budget advises Prairie.
