invasion

The old skin has been ditched because I found this new one, which is beta-friendly at its best. I can't resist to upload and tweak a bit this new skin even though it is old school in style.

I added something on and of my own on the side bar. The pictures you see actually tell you something about myself. Hover and a label pops out.

The side bar has been converted into some sort of identity-art. It was very taxing and squeezed a whole lot of creative juice. But I enjoyed every sec of it. So, I hope you will, too.

Our office is now looking into forming a creative team that will solely focus on internal events such as team-building and anything about formulating a successful incentive program for the employees.

HR will be greatly relieved should this project push through. As of now, the HR guys are taking on this responsibility on top of whatever else they're expected to do. With the birth of a creative team, I bet the HR people will find more time to handle their priorities efficiently.

Of course, I've thought of participating in this committee without necessarily removing myself from the position I currently hold.

The creative team is forecasted to operate as a separate department soon. But, personally, I think this will take a long time to happen. It's not a budget concern. The challenge is space.

I still have no idea where the creative team will hold office. God help us; I hope we don't have to clear the pantry and put in in office equipment.

By the way, we recently expanded in the Cubao Gateway area. The floor we occupied isn't spacious as expected so we have to exploit every square meter.

Again, the problem is space.

In the Alabang main office, where I am, we just leased another floor at the building across us a few months ago. The area is not enough.

From a different angle, the perspective is that business is good considering our interesting concern is space.

The way I see it, what is badly needed in the Alabang area are major realtors who will invest in not-so-high-rise buildings. There're a lot of vacant lots just waiting to be developed.

I think this idea should be taken advantage of, especially when more career-oriented people based south of Manila (Paranaque, Las Pinas, Muntinlupa, Cavite and Laguna) are hunting for jobs closer to home.

kids should know that...

The commercial center in Quezon city is found in Cubao were you can find different shopping malls and the Aurora Tower. There is a farmers plaza and farmers market. The oldest carnival in Metro Manila, the Fiesta carnival, is held here. You will also find the Araneta Coliseum, and a cinema. (wikipedia)
