After Disaster Recovery Drill
Yesterday (Sat), we began our DR Drill at 9am. Alex and myself have managed to complete all data restoration at 3.30pm. A new record! The bosses are so happy that they planned for dinner + pub in the evening. Unforunately, some testing encountered problem and the dinner was delayed to 8.30pm, a lot of them decided to go home or just attend dinner. We have only 8 of us (includeing 2 bosses) going for the drink. Actually, I found that, after a drink or two, the bosses are still human. In the day, when they are in control, they did things we don;t like. But they actually also needed company, they are sometime lonely too. At least that is what I felt a few hours ago with them. After some drink, they do talk normally (unlike the usual way of boss and subordinate) which I do appreciate. If they can continue doing that, I believe they will earn themselve more friends and support from the staff. Keep it up, bosses.

They are learning too. Do give them feedback and support. You need to manage them too.
Yeah! Thanks, may be I will be a boss one day too. Hee Hee.
Of course, if you want to. I don't want to go into management though. Luckily, in my company, there are 2 career paths, sales and management. I will definitely choose the sales paths.
I only have technical or management. If on technical, I only have 1 more step, management will hv much more opportunity. Sigh... But human management is never my forte. I am contented with what i have, what i do and what i need now.
