Watch this space...

I am currently busy with my B.Tech in Public Relations Management.  This year is very difficult for me!  We have a lot of projects and assignments for each subject and it seems to me that I don't have enough hours in my day.  I definitely need more hours to get everything done.  So far I did meet all the deadlines, but it took me hours during the nights getting every assignment done.  All our projects are long term projects, it take a lot of energy and stress.


With all the various projects it feels to me that it is not possible to give my very best.  With the many assignments to do, I don't have as much time as I need to spend on an assignment.  My only thought is, faster I work on an assignment,  sooner I can start with the next one.  Not to worry, with all our projects and assignments I still enjoy my course very much. 


Watch this space. . . next year, I will be back at Cput's Multi Purpose hall with my brand new professional outfit ready to collect my degree.  When I collect my degree next year, I will surely know that we all deserve our degree.  We are working very hard this year, there's no time for playing games.

If I were the boss...

If I were the boss, I would pay my employees enough.  There is a saying, pay peanuts and get monkeys.  Well I don't want my employees to act like monkeys.  It is not a zoo.

I would allow all my employees to work flexi time.  I will organise laptops with wireless internet so that you don't need to be at the office every minute.

I would install Skype on every computer/laptop to communicate and send files via Skype.

I would treat all the employees equally and with respect.

I would be strict and firm but also generous.  I would always listen to their suggestions, creative ideas and we we will have a discussion and then make a decision.

I would expect from my employees to do their best and meet deadlines on time but also to enjoy their work and the working environment.

I would take the employees once a month for lunch on the company's expense.

I would have brainstorming sessions on our projects.  It would be fun but productive.

I would give young students an opportunity to gain experience from our company.

Not so important, but there will not be cheap instant coffee at the office, only pure percolated coffee.

I would like to be the best boss, my employees must rather see me as their co-worker.

Most important, I would take a fat salary home every month.
