Escalation

I thought it would have been a great year in career for me in the year of Ox last year but it turned out to be quite disappointing.
It was disastrous as I was literally having a very bad relationship with my counterpart at the other side of the camp (the system integrator of the project that I am running). We were in the fight mode, with lots of accussations and finger pointings that both have to resolve to due to things that are beyond our control.
This is the urgly fact about the big word "escalation".
I did not want to end the year like that but sadly I have to live with it and began a new year with the not-too-perfect spirit.
Lesson learned: Escalate when you think that you will get 99% if not 100% support from the people at the top. Otherwise, it marks the start of a tiring, long process of convicing even your own people not to mention people at the other camp.
Everyone are protecting their own interest, unless these people felt threaten, they may not support you full heartedly even they are in the same camp as you.
This isn't politic, this is the art of survival.
I regret been truthful.
Well, it is a lesson learned. After all work isn't everything in my life.

又是鸡奸这回事

近几天报章头条都是国会反对党领袖鸡奸案的审讯新闻。 说实在的，那还蛮沉闷的。
谁不知道安华有过十年前的一场鸡奸案，而现在又依样画葫芦地来多一场。相信也好，不信也好，我纳闷的是这事真那么有新闻价值吗？
看赛夫那年轻人在法庭上露骨的讲述被唱后庭花的经过，反而觉得那伤似乎没那么深。见图中对着大床指指点点的赛夫，像是要借案子的曝光度来羞辱安华的成分多一点。
不知道公正最终会站哪边，但很希望这戏会快快演完，因为看得人有点厌倦了。
