What do you do?

What do you do when a car is coming towards you after crashing with another car, while you are eating at a stall by the roadside. These few people are carrying together with them, the LAKSA and the DRINKS they are eating.. hahaha.....

> When a hawker and his two customers saw a car heading at full speed towards their stall, their first instinct was not only to save themselves but also the bowls of laksa that they were eating, reported Kosmo!.

A Proton Iswara crashed into the stall after colliding with a Nissan Sentra at the junction of Kampung Guar Jentik, Beseri, near Padang Besar, on Sunday.

In the 1.30pm incident, hawker Dahli Saad, 36, was making a bowl of iced shavings while the two customers were eating laksa.

“I heard a loud bang and saw a car spinning towards my stall.

“Without thinking, I screamed and ran, carrying with me the ladle I was using. My two customers also ran for their lives, taking with them the bowls of laksa and drinks that they were having,” he said.

Know your True Value!

Got this from e-mail. Meaningful. :)

A well-known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a $500 note. In the room of 200 peoples, he asked, "Who would like this 500 $ note?"

Hands started going up. He said, "I am going to give this note to one of you but first let me do this."

He proceeded to crumple the note up. He then asked, "Who still wants it?"

Still the hands were up in the air. "Well," he replied, "What if I do this?"

And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now all crumpled and dirty.

"Now who still wants it?"

Still the hands went into the air. "My friends, you have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth $500.”

Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way. We feel as though we are worthless.

But no matter what has happened or what will happen, never lose your value.

You are special. Don't ever forget it! Never let yesterday's disappointments overshadow tomorrow's dreams.

"VALUE HAS A VALUE ONLY IF ITS VALUE IS VALUED"

Jet Lag

Jet lag is the bane of all travellers but there are ways to lessen its effects.

Source: thestar.com.my

The world, which is a sphere, is divided up into 24 time zones. The basis for world time is the Greenwich meridian, which is an imaginary longitudinal line passing through Greenwich village in London. The time changes by an hour for every 15° travelled in either direction from the Greenwich meridian. When one goes westwards, one gains time; when one goes eastwards, one loses time.

Jet travel enables a person to travel long distances over several time zones. When one travels over at least more than three time zones, one may experience jet lag. The traveller’s body clock is disrupted as the body has to adjust to a new routine that is different from what the traveller is usually accustomed to. The body will need time to adjust to the time. In short, jet lag is a sleep disorder that occurs when the body’s biological clock does not correspond to local time.

10 things the best bosses have in common

I know it’s almost a cliché but it can never be emphasized enough that people are the biggest and most important investment for any business. And whether you are the business owner, an Office Manager or Head of Department – as long as you have a team of people reporting to you, they view you as the “boss”. How do you ensure that the people that work for you enjoy reporting to you? Are you the best boss to have around?

Here are 10 ways you can become a better boss. The top 6 are taken from the book, The Entrepreneur’s Book of Checklists by Robert Ashton, and the rest are added by Ally.

1.Big ears – good bosses not only listen, they take genuine interest in their staff.

2.Long legs – be seen to be interested and involved; walk around the place, visit customers.

3.White teeth – smiling bosses make people happy. If the problem is not one your staff can help to solve, keep it to yourself.

4.Good vision – people only follow leaders who know where they’re going.

5.Tongue control – emotional responses, such as shouting and ranting have their place but not if it means humiliating your staff. Sometimes it’s best to hold your tongue.

6.Firm hand – you are the boss. You are expected to make unpopular decisions where necessary and to be firm with those who don’t pull their weight.

7.No finger pointing – a good leader takes responsibility for the outcome and performance of the business. If there is a problem, a good boss will take the full blame and not resort to finger pointing.

8.Give recognition – everyone wants to be appreciated for a good idea, a job completed within the deadline, sales that exceeds the target given and etc. The golden rule: be lavish with praises but stingy with criticisms.

9.Understanding – a good boss realizes and understands a genuine personal emergency when he sees one. A good boss will not sulk but instead provide support and relief.

10.Provide mentoring – a good boss trains, guides and develops future leaders. They desire to see their employees or team members grow in their job and would not regret and lament when they are being sought after by other employers.

As most people spend more than eight hours at their office, a great working place is an important factor for employees to consider whether their bosses are good or not. According to Robert Ashton, it need not cost the Earth for employers to provide a great place to work. Here are a few very affordable ways.

• Soft loo paper – pay the extra for the good stuff. Also make sure toilets are clean and in good working order.

• Graffiti board – why not create places for your staff to have their say, free from criticism and retribution?

• Good tools – usually the best tools cost less than the wrong tools and waste less time.

• Surprises – we all like nice surprises, for example ice cream on a hot day.

Telegraph.co.uk: Oxford compiles list of top ten irritating phrases »

The above is an interesting compilation and the Asians are not exempted from making such annoying phrases too.

In an interview setting, some specific phrases are also over-used. Most of the expressions are really meaningless. They were mainly used as “fillers” or to begin a new sentence, but when every sentence starts with a particular phrase or word, it can really gets on your nerves.

I’m sure many Recruiters will agree with me that some of the most irritating phrases that an interviewee expressed during an interview can be found below.

top 10 most irritating phrases are:-

1 - To be honest with you

2 - Frankly speaking

Cost saving of petrols

This is a Message received from a friend. Now that cost of petrol has gone up, you might want to post this and help people save some money.

I don’t know what you guys are paying for petrol… but here in Durban, we are also paying higher, up to 47.35 per litre. But my line of work is in petroleum for about 31 years now, so here are some tricks to get more of your money’s worth for every litre.

Here at the Marian Hill Pipeline, where I work in Durban, we deliver about 4 million litres in a 24-hour period thru the pipeline.

One day is diesel; the next day is jet fuel, and petrol, LRP and Unleaded. We have 34-storage tanks here with a total capacity of 16,800,000 litres.

ONLY BUY OR FILL UP YOUR CAR OR BIKKIE IN THE EARLY MORNING WHEN THE GROUND TEMPERATURE IS STILL COLD. Remember that all service stations have their storage tanks buried below ground. The colder the ground, the denser the fuel, when it gets warmer petrol expands, so buying in the afternoon or in the evening…. your litre is not exactly a litre.

In the petroleum business, the specific gravity and the temperature of the petrol, diesel and jet fuel, ethanol and other petroleum products play an important role. A 1degree rise in temperature is a big deal for this business. But the service stations do not have temperature compensation at the pumps.

WHEN YOU’RE FILLING UP, DO NOT SQUEEZE THE TRIGGER OF THE NOZZLE TO A FAST MODE. If you look, you will see that the trigger has three (3) stages: low, middle, and high. In slow mode, you should be pumping on low speed, thereby minimizing the vapours that are created, while you are pumping. All hoses at the pump have a vapour return. If you are pumping on the fast rate, some of the liquid that goes to your tank becomes vapour. Those vapours are being sucked up and back into the underground storage tank so you’re getting less worth for your money.

ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT TIPS IS TO FILL UP WHEN YOUR TANK IS HALF FULL. The reason for this is, the more fuel you have in your tank, the less air occupying its empty space. Petrol evaporates faster than you can imagine. Petroleum storage tanks have an internal floating roof. This roof serves as zero clearance between the petrol and the atmosphere, so it minimizes the evaporation.

Unlike service stations, here where I work, every truck that we load is temperature compensated, so that every litre is actually the exact amount.

ANOTHER REMINDER, IF THERE IS A FUEL TRUCK PUMPING INTO THE STORAGE TANKS, WHEN YOU STOP TO BUY, DO NOT FILL UP - most likely the petrol/diesel is being stirred up as the fuel is being delivered, and you might pick up some of the dirt that normally settles on the bottom.

Hope, this will help you get the maximum value for your money.

DO SHARE THESE TIPS WITH OTHERS! LET’S SHARE INFORMATION AND BENEFIT ALL, FOR THE BETTER OF MANKIND.
