Stacy Perman's In n out burger

I am reading the book about in and out burger, which is a bit more interesting than that Julie vs Julia book. I am at the section where they talk about the religious beliefs that they imposed on people through the printed verses on the cup and through their commercials.

At first, I felt repulsive. Then I realized that I should be more open minded and should accept other people's freedom of speeach and to express their opinion. If they believe in Christianity, it's good. If they said: "if you don't know believe in god, you will be condemned", I will accept that. Whatever they say is just going to accept the majority of the white population, and the people who believe in it and the people who can't think for themselves and let themselves dragged into something that other people would like them to believe in. Of course, we won't expect in n out to go global with their christian self-righteousness.

I am blessed with my eastern culture and can make peace with people of different religious background.

Aside from that part, I think the basic things that I learn is that stick to quality, and with a strike of luck, you can succeed. I support in n out because of its commitment to quality. So, once in a while when I crave some hamburger, that is what I would get. I get to stick to a protein-style hamburger with no buns.

The snyder family is really just a usual, lowly educated schmuck that got lucky. I hold more respect for people with more education, generally speaking. I am interested to find out how Lynsi Martinez ousted her grandma from the company. I have not read anything about her yet. But based on what I have learned, she is a product of a white trash mom and a lowly educated, fat father who happened to be born into a local rich family whose restaurants took off because they stick to the only fundamental business principle: "quality".

Situation, situation

Just funished meeting with Stec. I just can't believe that someone could help me diligently like that. I really appreciate it.
On the other hand, I will have a difficult time dealing with bev and dave when the time has come for me to leave Ampex. The sooner, the better. 
Meanwhile, I will wait for Cisco to get back to me. It will be very good to get back to Cisco to build up my expertise in supply management.
The situation will probably force me to choose Cisco over Stec, just as I did 2 years ago when I chose Cisco over Samsung.

City workers vote to strike.

Palo alto seiu-represented workers plan to strike. 617 workers earn ana average $72,662 a year, $3900 overtime... other benefits, too. Their positions include utilities maintenance, secretaries, janitors..  that's outrageous. Those people are shameless.

Ampex

Have not even have time to blog about the interview process and experience with Ampex. I am already temping there. It has been 3 days since Wednesday (8/19). Compared to other companies' long process of selecting, screening, intereviewing, second-interviewing, etc, Ampex was a very speedy one. I never thought that I would be asked to start working the very next day.

Well, so far so good. Definitely a start-up environment where people wear many hats. But I have to be fare and square that I have already promised to go back to Cisco if given a chance. So, I will stay just as long as I can with Ampex. I hope that I will not have to stay long. The longer it is, the harder it becomes.

Oh, well, one thing very interesting is that my job title says "administrative assistant". I am very surprised that Apple1 gave me this position. I even turned down the opportunity to be presented at the beginning.

Buena Suerte

es raro decir este a mi mismo. nunca lo necesito. pero si me falle otra vez, no me asusta mucho. ya estoy muy acostumbrado de estar decepcionado.

Hablar de pandigital, no me excita mucho ni me decepciona. Asi que me va bien cualquiera de las dos situaciones: me contratan o me despidan. Pues, espero que me contratan, porque necesito un trabajo como este para ganar dinero y establecer un futuro mas seguro y saludable financieramente.

De todos modos, buena suerte.

Dogs can't shed the poop-sitting habit

I woke up and went downstairs to see the chihuahuas in the backyard. Later, I saw Ivory taking care of business and as soon as she's done, Sasha came over and clean it up. No, it is not my first time seeing it. I remember while I was a kid in Taiwan, back in the 70s, one of the neighbor's kid squatted and took care of business right there in their frontyard and a dog came over and cleaned it up. there was no lapse of time. Just out and then in immediately!

Then, there is Christi digging out Racoon's poop in Jorge's backyard...

I was going to take a photo with my cell phone and then Jose called. So, we went to do a little kind of cleaning. We cleaned the backyard and front yard of a house in Belmont today. It took 2 hours and I took some photos. Well, I helped out, but I didn't do all the heavy lifting. They did. Anyway, here are some photos:

Feliz Cumpleaños

Si, tengo muchos años. mas que yo quiero confesar. Pero, la visa sigue. No voy a denunciarme de todos modos.

No le dije a nadie que era mi cumpleaño hoy. Para nada. A nadie le importa. Pero recibí mesajes de Steve, Gerald y Alex. Gracias a ellos por recordarle de mi día. Son buena onda ellos.

Pero no tengo perspectiva, ni esperanza ahorita. Todo está tranquilo. Que pena.

Patrick de Pandigital me avisó que me iban a invitar a su compañía para una entrevista. Qué bueno!
