Hiring
I can obviously spend hours highlighting the issues in hiring. Such a complex, human, social, impactful process. I guess my post should be Hiring #1. Quite a few people I have recently talked to admit they have tweaked their CV using ChatGPT and the like. Cool. I don’t find anything here. There used to be…

the metronome
Any music student knows this: the metronome. It’s not fun necessarily but there is something funny about it. You need to go slower to go faster. You need to tune in to the speed your music level is at. When we don’t rush, when we tune in, suddenly the metronome even though on the same…

Easy recipe for happiness
I often ponder on life and happiness and the meaning of it all and how to become happy. What I should do. Other than writing a blog about it and inviting people to help me make sense of it all, that is. During this journey, I stumble often on that sad realisation that my main…

Elephants and Lions
It is a common theme that Lion is the King of the Jungle. Ok they are blond, with rich manes and sexy voices. Behind the inspiring looks (which got them the interview) they have, in fact, an irresistible power that got them the job: they can eat you… So, they rule by fear: they are…

Direction
I had a friend over for coffee the other day. Aged 26. He claimed his biggest frustration was him realizing life passes and he does not know where he is going. Funnily, and told him so, a few days before I was with a 43 year old friend discussing the exact same problem but sipping…

human waste
I was walking into a square into one of November’s cold rainy days. It’s Saturday morning and the square is pipping by the crowds gathering to meet, shop, enjoy a coffee or stroll the streets covered in the first dazzling Christmas lights. Lots of smiles around and the classic buzz of a Saturday morning. There…
