boss management is an art, I'm not the artist

When I listen to people narrating their problem with work, I listen and I genuinely run the entire problem through my mind and think of the surrounding factors associated with the problem.

disobedient childhood thinking

it suddenly dawned on me an anecdote on am incident that illustrated how obedient I was during my childhood days.

There was a certain company that came to my primary school one day to market three products. All three are some sort of siren to signal distress when one is in danger. Robbery and so on. 

My young brain was so bent on getting one of those that now thinking back, I can only hate myself for being so irrational back then. I also despise that company who came to my school to try to sell those products to what could have been poor students. One of them cost $18, which by standards then, is considered very expensive. Today, I can get ge. A bicycle siren for a fraction of that price.
