Slow Trip
Not much going on. Work is going well...I'm finding I actually have a positive influence on how this group performs. Nice to know I still have some group management skills. I think a lot of the reason for my success is that I'm not one of those guys who talks a lot...we have plenty of people who seem to be talking just so it looks like they have something to say, even if all they're doing is repeating things that have already been settled or offering examples no one needs or cares about. My experience has been, if I don't say much, then when I do speak up, people tend to listen because they're not tired of me and they realize that if I'm offering an idea, it must be one I think is pretty important, since otherwise I'd just be quiet. It seems to work.
I'm also catching up on my reading, which is nice.
And yeah, apparently there's a really big Vietnamese community here in Atlanta, and there's also a Chinatown of sorts (I never knew that), so maybe I can find some New Year's stuff going on this weekend.
