We need a shovel!!!

Time to head to Home Depot, get a shovel and start digging the ground. Its the best place to buried everything away from the naked eye. Damn...how can there be improvement or changes at all when the higher beings up there only see everything falling in the right place as far as SOP and organization policy are mandated?Its a struggle to make things fall in place, its a torture to maintain it ontop of all the normal maintenance work we got to go through. We have to question ourselves and challenge some of this policy for rationalization and value. Rationalize if any of this policy can be practice without becoming a paper or process hindrances (most are hindrances). Valuate if any of this policy contribute to our organizational value? Some rules are laid by the old birds of the organization in the older day of history that can only work back than and not longer now... A candle works well in the older days, than a light bulb but now we got fluorescent lamp. Time have change and policy must change.

People are educated differently now. A policy that can't convince is a poor policy. My personnal opinion is this... its up to the people in the ground to voice out objection and the people at the top to handle the issue and not just to toss it aside saying "Hey, this is the established law. If we don't have this in place...what if this happen and what if that happen?".

Sigh... thats how things goes. A small insignificant problem can snow ball into something enormous just by asking the "What if this happen or what if that happen question.

There are many avenue for changes but do people capitalize on it? Rarely, because its a stiff mindset of many that nothing will ever happen even if you voice it out. This is of course not true. Untill we can change the "vote of no confidence" mindset, nothing will change.

Time are different now. Why allow a single or small group up there to make unpopular decision when the collective effort of a many time larger ground can make popular one?


This is my last blog entry on my dark persepctive with audits. The battle start next week....
