Do You Have or Are you a GOOD BOSS ?

Have you ever watched "Undercover Boss"? This is such a reality show from United States, telling about the Boss, the REAL Boss to go undercover and attempt to find out what is going on to his front-liner staff. This show is totally true to keep the Boss feeling how he should establish a new business or employment policy that is match to the business style, and especially, the employee.

Well, anyway I'm not promoting this kind of show. But I am here to give another perception on becoming a boss. How to become a probably good Boss. I'm not a Boss currently, and I hope to be a good Boss when a chance is given to me.
I have been worked to some companies during past three years. Let me describe one-by-one:

First
The major shareholder has over the limit himself to intervene all the particular things in the company. Directors and Mangers are like a doll that can do nothing in front of him. We, the staff, acknowledged that he has a concern to us as well. During the economic recession of the country, we received a subsidy to help us battle the bad situation.
Another shareholder, not a major, is such a perfectionist. A simple mistake can become a company-quake. All the staff under his supervision work under-pressure, not to give the best, but trying to at least not to make a mistake.

Second
A very rich man, has made himself extremely busy. Even named himself as 24/7 ready. Crazy over the business, using his own business instinct to develop a new one. So busy he is, left him no time even to think about the staff. Even breaking the law can become an option for him. One thing, pressing staff, and rising money are the only target. Anyway, I worked for only one week there, so lucky.

Third
A worldwide network company, has delegated one of the experienced man to handle the branch where the country I stay in. Working with him, is just like having a baby. Everyday he shouts, just to call his staff to come to his room, or only to ask the unnecessary thing. The bad financial situation, not making him work and think harder to solve the thing, but left him in a very good environment where all high-end facility keep going to him. Since he took over the previous Boss, there is no increase in volume of business. On the other side, the expenses has increased to pay his facility. Eventually, many staffs can't stand and decided to leave, included me.

Present
This Boss could be one of the best Boss I ever met. He treats the staff very well. Blend with all the staff, never underestimate people, have an ability to speak politely, and the most important is, he has a HEART.
Once upon a time, he's ever said to me,


"for me, the most important is you all are comfort to work with me".

Among four short and simple experiences working in companies, I tried to sort out ONE thing.
It is HEART.
Yes, the KEY is HEART.
When you have a HEART, you will be able to LEAD PEOPLE;
with an adequate BRAIN, it's gonna be a PERFECT BOSS.

This is such a sharing, there is no intention to become a Guru, Master, or Motivator.

Have a nice weekend everybody...!!!

Let's Talk About JUNK FOOD

Let's talk about JUNK FOOD.
Do you think this kind of food is deserve to be said as JUNK?? or rubbish??
Is it the same like garbage? Is it so serious?
Many people blame this JUNK food when they have a health problem.
But don't forget, they eat not only JUNK food every day, don't you??

Let we observe one by one. Layer by layer of a JUNK food, that usually equated with BURGER.
In one piece of burger, it usually contains of bun, with some sesame on top, ham/beef/chicken/etc, cheese, tomato and cucumber slices, also lettuce. Some with tomato ketchup and mayo added.
Ok, it's time to break'em down:

1. Bun, it is made by flour, eggs, and some baking ingredients. Many bakery also sell this kind of bun.

2. Sesame on top, it gives nutty taste. Very common to be used for cooking and other things.

3. Ham/beef/chicken. We all must like this part. Every meat must contains protein which is definitely needed by our body to develop our muscle. Either chicken, beef, ham, or anything, I guess everyone of you eat everyday.

4. Cheese, this milk-tasty part is also filled up by protein and fat that also useful for our body.

5. Tomato slices, despite only a few pieces, but at least it gives a source of vitamin A.

6. Cucumber slices, are believed able to reduce our cholesterol level if consumed regularly.

7. Tomato ketchup and mayo.
Ketchup for sure is good for our health, that's why when you eat Pizza, Doctor says it is healthy if you eat with ketchup. Mayo, not so special, just to give more appetite, it is made by yolk, oil, and vinegar/lime juice. Based on its ingredients, it's fine.

8. That's ALL, no more?? then WHERE IS THE JUNK??

Honestly, I am not a JUNK food mania, just trying to get all the things inside my head out, so that may be if people think I'm wrong, I can be advised.
Just be moderate to all FOOD. Don't be crazy of one single food. Even vegetarian is not totally great.

Thinking to have a home-made BURGER, reduce salt and oil. Avoid soft drink as a compliment, change with tea/coffee, and substitute the fries with mashed/ baked potato will definitely brings more goodness to your body.
