I always find the 20/80 rule to come in handy for time management.
If you need to hand in any work (to your boss, your client, ...) make sure to ask feedback when your 80% ready (and thus only spent 20% of your time). If you're on the "wrong" track you didn't lose 80% of your time finishing something that has to be redone anyway AND you can probably save additional time of the remaining 80% from the pointers you received from the feedback.

With all the respect, I have a much better way - I'm walk out of the office every time somebody try to stress me with his problem, and telling him call to me when he calmed down...
After 15 years it has a magical effect - when someone want to talk me, he takes a deep breath to cal himself down and then addresses me...

Here[^] is Australia's contribution to the world of right wing nut jobs. Read the reviews. 'This book saved my marriage' is so funny, I nearly choked.

I hope so, but, for now, a majority voted this clown in to power.
It's clearly a rich vein of comedy, though.

A nutter in parliament is quite common. Cori's not an orphan. His views are extreme even for his mates. Paying money for his book is a worry.

Yes, I doubt they've sold as many copies as there are reviews, or even half that.

Christian, I thought of you as an Australian contribution, even though I am not sure of your chirality, since it's so often reversed south of the equator
By the way, I suspect the demographic distribution of nut jobs is rather independent of nationality, but, of course systematic research is made almost impossible by the staggering number of people who succeed in convincing themselves, and others, they are "normal," many of whom are elected to high office where their insane actions are perceived as "business as usual."

I suspect that's true, but the system seems to accept/embrace them more so in the USA.

No, they're just defined differently here.
In the US if you believe in personal responsibility and capitalism the left calls you a "nut job" and lumps you in with all the religious zealots who are trying to hijack true conservatism.
IMHO the US's left wing is far more dangerous and "nutty" than the right. We're currently creating a nation of people who believe they are not responsible for anything and require the government to even survive. Our founding fathers would not be pleased.

The recourse to the founding fathers is almost always specious. It's a 'call to antiquity' and usually divorced from reality.

Sure... drag the US into your complaints about an Australian and then ignore one of the few serious responses. Typical.

Well, on the one hand, I think Australia has issues because we're following the road the USA has taken. This is OUR fault, but it's still true that the US is a signpost.
"In the US if you believe in personal responsibility and capitalism the left calls you a "nut job" and lumps you in with all the religious zealots who are trying to hijack true conservatism."
Well, I suspect you are right. I suspect there's plenty of people whose views are not as nutty as the extremists who get all the air time. The thing is, because those people get the air time, it's not an unreasonable assumption. It's up to you to disprove it.
I'm also not sure I am comfortable with 'believe in personal responsibility and capitalism'. If you believe that capitalism only hurts those who deserve to be hurt, then I disagree. Either way, I think it's not an unbalanced description of your position.
Was that rational enough for you ? :P

I don't believe its quite so linear. The US didn't blaze some trail that others are following.

Huh?
Christian Graus wrote: I'm also not sure I am comfortable with 'believe in personal responsibility and capitalism'.
What's not to be comfortable with? Do you believe that people are responsible for their own actions / inactions? Do you prefer capitalism or some other economic system?
Christian Graus wrote: If you believe that capitalism only hurts those who deserve to be hurt, then I disagree.
Not sure where you got that. People and companies (read General Motors, Chrysler, and all big banks) should be allowed to fail when they screw up. Thats the only way something better can rise from the ashes. Capitalism only works if there is true risk along with the chance for reward. On an individual level people also need to be allowed to fail. Charity and not government should be their salvation.

I thought it was generally claimed that the US did exactly that  One way or another, the US system is somewhat unique IMO, and certainly it's the one that is visible and whose culture permeates the rest of the western world at least.
Mike Mullikin wrote: What's not to be comfortable with?
I think it's a weighted description, not a dispassionate one.
I 'believe in capitalism', in that I think it's probably the best system on offer. I don't think it treats people equally or fairly, so I think it needs to be restrained.
Mike Mullikin wrote: Do you believe that people are responsible for their own actions / inactions?
Yes, that part I agree with strongly, I think that people look too often to blame someone else, or seek compensation for poor luck or poor choices. Your wording is still weighted. No-one DOESN'T 'believe in personal responsibility', not really. Your choice of words is weighted towards making the alternatives sound unreasonable.
Mike Mullikin wrote: Do you prefer capitalism or some other economic system?
It's not a dichotomy, our system can be broadly capitalistic, with some socialist elements ( which is what I prefer ).
Mike Mullikin wrote: People and companies (read General Motors, Chrysler, and all big banks) should be allowed to fail when they screw up.
Sure. But people whose skills happen to not pay well, should not be consigned to being taken advantage of by for profit companies beyond what is reasonable.
Mike Mullikin wrote: Capitalism only works if there is true risk along with the chance for reward.
Yes, on a corporate level, I agree 200%.
Mike Mullikin wrote: On an individual level people also need to be allowed to fail.
Depends how you mean. If I start a company, it should be able to fail. If I don't have highly prized skills, I should not be well paid, because I don't offer significant value. But, what I get paid should not be decided by supply and demand alone, with no respect for the human element.
Mike Mullikin wrote: Charity and not government should be their salvation.
That's the same as saying that adoption should replace abortion. It's assuming that a catchphrase works all the time, and that it will magically grow to meet requirements. It doesn't work that way. And it costs more, it's cheaper for government to, for example, run one health insurance scheme for everyone, than for many groups to do it, for profit. Competition does not negate the cost of multiple systems, multiple management, and the desire to return profit.

Don't believe our propaganda.

Only if you choose to allow it. Certainly every western country / society is responsible for itself. Too often people want to blame the US for anything they see wrong in their own society simple because it happens in the US as well.
Christian Graus wrote: I don't think it treats people equally or fairly, so I think it needs to be restrained.
True, but the areas and level of restraint are up for discussion. One size does NOT fit all.
Christian Graus wrote: No-one DOESN'T 'believe in personal responsibility', not really.
I think you're being naive. There are entire segments of nearly all western societies where generation after generation don't work. They rely solely on government programs for their existence.
Christian Graus wrote: what I get paid should not be decided by supply and demand alone, with no respect for the human element.
OK, but what if someone is too lazy to work at all - can't even be bothered with being dependable. As tax payers are we expected to feed them, clothe them, house them?

All debatable. I can't speak about other governments but the US government has proven time after time that it is HIGHLY inefficient and COMPLETELY untrustworthy. Our pre-ObamaCare systems were definitely broken but Obamacare is TRULY awful.

Oh, I don't blame the US. It's still true that we follow everything you do, like lap dogs.
Mike Mullikin wrote: True, but the areas and level of restraint are up for discussion.
Absolutely. At which point, it becomes a nuanced discussion, which didn't seem to be what you were aiming for, at first.
Mike Mullikin wrote: I think you're being naive. There are entire segments of nearly all western societies where generation after generation don't work. They rely solely on government programs for their existence.
I know, they live down the road from me. But, if you asked them, they would not say 'I don't believe in personal responsibility'.
Mike Mullikin wrote: OK, but what if someone is too lazy to work at all - can't even be bothered with being dependable. As tax payers are we expected to feed them, clothe them, house them?
Apparently we are, and I agree that's not reasonable, or even viable.
Mike Mullikin wrote: I can't speak about other governments but the US government has proven time after time that it is HIGHLY inefficient and COMPLETELY untrustworthy.
Mostly because both sides are more interested in blaming each other, than making it work. But, at the same time, what you pay for health care, or even health insurance, is obscene compared to what we pay. So, your system is clearly broken, in financial terms.
Mike Mullikin wrote: Our pre-ObamaCare systems were definitely broken but Obamacare is TRULY awful.
Mostly because of compromises to create a system that stood any chance of getting through.
