Hi english folks!

I know it’s a bit frustrating for you, but I’ve been spoiling my french readers lately. If you feel like exploring, remember that all the links on your left will take you to English-land. Only the weblog and the writing section contain French (but you’ll also find some English there too if you are lucky…)

Enjoy!

On sait d’expérience que les facteurs psychologiques sont non négligeables dans l’apparition du mal de mer (les tempéraments anxieux sont plus sujets au mal de mer) et votre état d’esprit sera d’autant plus dégradé si vous avez déjà cédé sur les deux premiers “F”, le froid et la faim. De plus, le mal de mer provoque lui-même un désordre psychologique, une sorte de “viscosité mentale qui annihile la volonté” (pour reprendre les termes justes du Cours des Glénans), ce qui ne vous aidera aucunement à sortir de cet état. C’est un cercle vicieux qui peut vous ammener très loin dans la déchéance physique et morale.

Le grand classique de la sortie en mer à la journée est le passager qui arrive sans vêtements adéquats, qui se refroidit sur le pont le premier quart-heure après la sortie du port, et qui va se réfugier dans les intérieurs pour se réchauffer. Son sort est alors généralement scellé. Il réapparaît sur le pont dix minutes après, le teint verdâtre, pour aller vomir dans les plus brefs délais.

My message is a call to action: Be aware of these five attributes, don’t expect the gravy train to run forever, and don’t assume your education will take care of you. Rather, invest in yourself – in language skills, in thirst for knowledge, in true professionalism and, finally, in thinking creatively and non-hierarchically. This will hold you in good stead in our knowledge economy and help lay a strong foundation for the next productive generation that follows you.

le mal de terre c’est assez courant surtout chez ceux qui ne craignent pas ou peu le mal de mer

Ca me fait le coup à chaque fois (autant de jours à tanguer à terre que de jours de mer), au point que ça en est génant (vertige, etc) alors que je ne suis pas souvent malade à bord.

Wenn mir die Algorithmen auf meinem Gerät nicht mehr gut genug sind, könnte ich mal andere ausprobieren. Wenn es Open Source Software gibt, könnte ich sie sogar selber runterladen und ändern und vielleicht neü Features hinzufügen. Auch könnte ich meine Hörgeräte öfter “updaten” als wenn ich nur die Software auf den Geräten habe, die damals vor 3 Jahren drauf war als ich die Geräte gekauft habe.

Bitte vergesst nicht, dass gerade die jungen oder technikliebenden Kunden andere Bedürfnisse haben als eure “typische” Kundschaft! Wir sind auch da und ihr werdet uns noch lange als Kunden haben, wenn Ihr unser Herz gewinnt.

Some communities in the city feed the monkeys by the car full. They bring whole cars full of food and feed the monkeys. They do not give a care about the hungry children on the street, but will feed the monkeys.

2. You are good at problem solving, thinking outside the box, seeking new ways of doing things: Hard to find. Too often, there is a tendency to simply wait for detailed instructions and then execute the tasks – not come up with creative suggestions or alternatives.

Everyone loves to be considered a professional. But when you exhibit behavior like job hopping every year, demanding double-digit pay increases for no increase in ability, accepting job offers and not appearing on the first day, taking one company’s offer letter to shop around to another company for more money — well, don’t expect to be treated like a professional.

Interestingly (and he hires dozens of Indian chartered accountants each year), his take is as follows: the Indian exam is no harder than the British exam. Both focus on the application of concepts, but since the Indian education system is so rote-memorization oriented, Indian students have a much more difficult time passing it than their British counterparts.

For the last nine years, for instance, no minister has dared to increase passenger ticket prices. When Mr. Trivedi attempted to do so earlier this year, his proposal was immediately shot down by Mamata Banerjee, the West Bengal chief minister, a former railway minister herself and a heavyweight in the federal government’s ruling coalition. Shortly afterward, she dismissed Mr. Trivedi.

Life is good – except that it’s not. Not for us, your employers, at least. Most of your contributions will be substandard and lack ambition, frustrating and of limited productivity. We are gearing ourselves up for broken promises and unmet expectations. Sorry to be the messenger of bad news.
