People in Taipei are living in cargos

I just finished a phone call. The dialouge is just like below. Mr. K and I were talking something.

K: Tailand? I don't think it's a good idea.
I: Not Tailand, it's Taiwan.
K: What? Taiwan? heard of it. But where is it?
I: South to Japan, East to China and North to Phlippine.
K: Wait... let me take an atlas. Just ocean! Nothin there!
I: Wait, don't you see an island like a potato?
K: No I just see pacific ocean there.
I: Are you nearby the computer? Can you just browse a website?
K: Ya, which website?
I: google map http://map.google.com and then type taiwan. Then you will see that island.
K: ok I know google map. I'm typing...Oh, it exists. But why I can't find it on my altas? Let me check...mmm it was covered by a China's flag.
I: Ya, I know. it's politics. That's not our point. Can you type Taipei and just zoom in under satillete mode?
K: Ok... Ah...? Too strange. Either Green or Red? Are most of people live in cargos?
I: What? Cargos?
K: Ya, they look like cargos.

I really have nothing to say. Ya! K is right. People in Taipei are living in cargos..Don't believe it? Just browse google map.

YEC The Personality Type Portraits

Session 1
Member: Austin (ISTP), Terry (ISFJ), Flora (ISFP), Margaret (ISFP), and Me (ISTP+ENTJ)

Austin, working for a security company, is a high-risk taker because he���s trying use the knowledge he learned on work to rob a bank. Twisted Evil He thinks himself as a good project manager and I think many of us agree with that since he really hold up many successful activity last year.

Terry did that test few years ago, and found the recent result is the same. According to explanation, she is suitable for social worker.

Both Margaret and Flora are Artist type. Margaret said her friend, working at financial area in HK, once told her that she should be more aggressive. And both Austin and I thought she���s aggressive enough. Flora is sometimes confused about making a decision because she is afraid what she makes will be wrong. Margaret just told us the experience to decide to change her job via a fortune teller���s divining. I also thought that���s one of the most efficient ways to make a decision since the world is magical. Cool

Margaret thought I choose wrong career because of my type. But��多ow about being an ���entrepreneur���? Wink

Session 2
Member: Tina, David Xiao, Linda, Julian, Jessica and Me
We just talk about the 2nd and the 3rd question. What kind of men or women would you like? How will you do if your partner is disloyal? I remind members in our group that woman will change their personality after marriage, pregnant, and give birth to a baby. David Xiao can���t believe that most women are loyal to their partner comparing to him. He thought women who climb mountain very often are much more open-minded. I think a stronger body may breed a confident mind. Cool

YoYo Negotiation game.

Group 5
Member:
Camden Football club: Jack, Ariel
United Media: Cindy, Stanly, David Liao

I really admire both of Jack and Ariel for their negotiating. Ariel proposed some ideas those sponsor never think of. Jack is very good at bargaining with sponsor.

Contract value

CFC: 65m for 5.5 years
UM: 20m for 4 years and an additional 10m if the club wins the European Cup
Compromise: 45m for 4.5 years. UM pays 20m at the first year.
Jack always use the magic words ��� How about��存ince we want and you want��尖ou pay ��� annually?���

Advertise
CFC: Ariel said that the color of logo will affect players��� eye. It will make CFC lose.
UM: Keep advertisement simpler. UM just paint its name with white color on the ground without any color else.
To substitute the rest advertisements, Ariel proposed UM to send 10% of audience small gifts with advertisements. And UM accepted.

Promotion by players
CFC: Jack said UM should pay extra 10m to buy two star players and players need practice not do promotion.
UM: No more star player and, of course, all players should do promotion.
Compromise:
UM buy extra one star player for 5m and only 2 star players do promotion at least 25 days per year. And UM will change players��� cloth supplier and players will wear much smaller logo on their clothes.

Eventually, as a representative of UM, I think we still pay too much especially on buying additional star player. I think I will do better next time. And I would said that Ariel is realy a great lier... Twisted Evil and also a successful businesswoman. Crying or Very sad

我也要1元台幣設股份有限公司

去年12/15的數位時代,報導日本現在只要一日圓就可以開股份有限公司,相對過去要2000萬日圓才能開公司的規定,可見未來是財閥再也控制不了日本市場,更多的微型企業出頭,帶動消費和就業率。


前台灣創設股份有限公司仍要100萬,大家很清楚,這筆錢是會計師後面的金主借到公司戶頭給商業司看的,代價是,短短三到五天就要3%的行情,我不知道為 什麼台灣還要繼續用這個法令來綁想創業的人,難道是為了藍綠的金主有錢可賺嗎?該是放寬法令的時侯了,兩邊無能、自私的廢物政客。

  我記得第一次當host,準備的是向外國人介紹台灣的主題。其實我發現有點自討苦吃,政府在這方面資訊實在少的可憐,在海外的網站也是零零星星的,實在和我想的至少一系列起介紹『好吃好玩』的想法實在差太多。
  那次說真的,我只是想了解大家對食物的說法,AuthurWayne都給了很多不錯的建議,也算幫在坐的十個人了解華人的食物實在不易用英文形容,看來還是用音譯會比較快。那一次實在不怎麼成功,所以我想下一次一定要弄個很多人很有興趣的主題。

   5/18是我第二次當host,我也知道我星期天晚上張貼是太晚,原因並不是在主題,我老早就找好了,題目也準備地ok,但是Newsweek的生字 蠻多的,而且這篇文章要是沒有個半小時,我想一般人大概辦法看完,所以用萬能的google找了老半天,總算找到一篇有夾帶中文註釋的,也要謝 Wayne再補述一些生字,不過那天還是有人問我題目是什麼意思,我還得一再簡介訪文中人物的經歷。

  我的想法和Martin差不多,其實並不見得能在這次的聚會中幫大家提昇英文多少,但我相信參加那次聚會的人,都為了這個主題用英文來爭論,也有人說他/她因這篇文章改變了原來的觀念,已經達到大家用英文來表示意見的目的,我認為還蠻ok的。

  會後有些人跑來找我說找了一個好的主題,不過我想好的主題有很多,只看host自己要不要花點時間去找而已,我已經物色好下次的主題,這個主題相信會比"She Works, He doesn't"掀起更巨大的波瀾,就先賣個關子吧 Twisted Evil

   最後說一下我對提昇英文能力的個人看法。我認為一但敢說英文以後,要怎麼精進還是得靠自己,來YoYo的好處是可以學到比自己英文好的人怎麼 說正確,另外也可以幫助一開始結巴的人敢開口,我記得我剛開始來真的是結結巴巴,說不出半個字,很謝謝大家的幫忙,現在出國也不再害怕問路問食物問一些有 的沒的,阿斗仔真的來找房子或在捷運上問路我也可以幫忙解決。我發現一個有趣的事,阿斗仔對英文程度的要求,同事和對生意上的來往者是不一樣的,如果要當 外商的員工,熟稔的英文當然重要,但如果是當那些外商的客人或者賣東西給他們,其實不見得要多熟稔,只要價格條件講的清楚,雙方信任度夠,他們倒是很寬 容,而且來大中華圈做生意的人,都會講一點簡單的中文。以我這麼本土化的行業來說,只要再多要求自己口語上不要再犯一些常犯的錯誤就差不多了,但對於其他 行業,尤其是在外商公司上班的人,應該要的比我更上層樓吧。大家就一起加油吧 Very Happy

本書描寫54個人物的生命歷程,可以看到每個人對自己人生的註解都不同,YoYo大部份的成員都已工作過一段時間,書中人物的心境,也許可以反應出現實生活中的你我,當然,每個人會有感觸的一定都不同。

另外一個收穫,是我們一直以南北差距來形容台灣,但和本書的內容與受訪者的地理位置以及那些人物,實在是小巫見大巫,讓我對「美國」及「美國人」有更別於報紙和電影上的看法。有空不妨去翻翻看,還蠻有趣的。

From : Shirzad Bozorgchami, Class of ‘88
To: Class of ‘89
Subject: Pain or pleasure at the GSB (graduate school of Berkely)

Too many tears were shed last year at the GSB. Many of my classmates and I went through what I would now consider to have been unnecessary pain and hardship –both academically and socially. It is so easy to look back now and speak of all the things we could have and should have done differently. History has a way of repeating itself, not just because people are stubborn and slow learners, but also because people may not know history well enough. I believe one of the factors that contributed to the problems last year was that a historic perspective was not provided to us. The 2nd- years only made general comments like “Don’t worry, you’ll make it “, or {Hang in there! The Spring quarter will be a lot more fun.”

I owe a great deal to the GSB community. It has challenged me and inspired me to experiments and grows beyond what I ever imagined possible. I hope I can pay back some of my dues by making life a little easier for you. This not reflects my personal thoughts, feelings and suggestions for more fulfilling GSB life. It does not necessarily reflect the administration’s views or any body else’s. Please call me at 328-2938 if you want to discuss anything or just have a chat. Throughout the year, if you ever have a problem you don’t want do discuss with classmates or the administration, please give me a call. I promise confidentiality. Even if I couldn’t personally help, I could always find one of my classmates who would.

Welcome to the GSB. This will probably be the most memorable and fruitful year of your life!

ACADEMIC PRESSURE:
By now you may have discovered that the volume of work is enormous. There just isn’t enough time to get all the work done. But no one said you should! Most of us come in here as perfectionists and feel very uncomfortable doing a so-so job on anything. The sooner you give up this habit, the happier you will be. You can spend your hour on carefully reading an article. Or, you can spend it on skimming five articles. Or, you can spend it on skimming three articles and getting to know a classmate a little better in the spare time. I tried all three of these methods but my own preference is for the latter.

A study of GSB graduates of about 20 years ago tried to find factors correlating with future business success (measured, arguably, in current salary). It found the factor most closely related to success to be sociability, not grades or thoroughness. My own experience has been that most of the minute details taught in GSB courses will never be used. It is the general understanding of the basic material that counts most. Thus, to get a P, you don’t need to know all of the material covered. By focusing on what you personally want to get out of each course, you free up time for other things. I could never understand why some people would spend hours on putting the finishing touches on report, when the act involved very little additional learning. Neurotic perfectionism at its worst.

If you are a true poet, you may feel that you don’t have the luxury of deciding what you want and don’t want to learn. You may be primarily concerned with survival and passing . I want to suggest that you do have the choice. What I saw among my own classmates and the class of ’87 was that about 99% of those who didn’t quit made it through. Put this in perspective. You have a higher chance of getting into a serious car accident or coming down with a serious disease in the next 2 years than you do of not making it at the GSB. I don’t know if this makes you feel better or worse!

This is not to deny that you will need to work extremely hard in the next year. Most of us did. But some of us had a lot of fun working hard, some of us were miserable at it. What made the difference was our perspective. If you work hard because you have to, because you are afraid of not passing, because an ugly monster in your nightmares keeps reminding you that the world will come to an end if you don’t pass, you may resent the experience and find it painful. But if you constantly remind yourself that passing is not the issue, that you are here because you want to learn and grow, that every minute of hard work is making you a better, tougher, and more capable person, your experiences will be much more enjoyable. I envy the experience of some of my poet classmates who were challenged the most last year. They climbed a taller mountain than the rest of us did. They learned more and grew more.

Last year I saw a lot of panicky faces and tearful eyes. These were people who lost their perspective. They forgot that the dark tunnel did have an end to it after all. Keeping the proper perspective takes a little work. I found it useful to write down my goals and what I wanted to get out of the GSB before the hard times hit. By frequently reminding my self of those goals, updating them, and keeping in mind that there was life beyond the core (believe it or not),. I managed to keep a cool head in hot times.

Throughout the year be aware of “mass psychology” at the GSB. I have a lot of respect for most of my 320 classmates. But I think as a group we were often unwise and immature. Keep reminding yourself that just because everyone else is doing something, it doesn’t mean it is right for you. I experimented with going against the mass psychology many times and gained more confidence as it as time went by (initially, it was scary.). you don’t need to be in a study group for every class, you don’t need to turn in every homework, you don’t have to appear bubbly and social all the time, you don’t have to interview with investment banks and consultants, you don’t need to be a conservative and safe in class discussions, you don’t need to hide your sensitivity, confusion or vulnerability.

It is ironic how many of us come here with a strong sense of individualism and then end up conforming or the enormous pressure of group norms. I think part of it is because we respect our classmates too much to believe that as a group they could act stupid. We also respect them too much to not need their approval. One safe way to gain the group’s approval, we might think, is by not breaking any of its implicit norms.

H OR P?
If you have had a solid technical or business background, you may have the luxury of choosing whether or not you want to aim for getting Hs and becoming an Arjay scholar (the top 10 percent of the class). This is ultimately an individual choice. My own view as an alumnus is that the cost of aiming a Hs far outweighed the benefits. You may have to study two or three times as much in some classes to move from a P to an H. even then, your are never guaranteed an H (the good old days of knowing you were definitely the best in your class ended when you came to the GSB.) the rewards of getting Hs are dubious. Neither your summer nor your first permanent employer will have any idea what your grades were. After your first job, job performance becomes a much more important criterion than your grades. Remember, at the GSB “P” stands for “Plenty good-enough.”

I consider some P+s and Hs that I received in the past year to indicate a failure on my part to properly allocate my time away from course work and towards extracurricular activities. Exceptions, of course, were courses that were directly relevant to my personal interests and career goals. Extracurricular activities around here are a great learning experience because they involve getting to know your class mates outside the academic environment.

You may be surprised to see the great differences between people’s personalities inside and outside the classroom.

STUDY GROUPS:
You don’t need to have them, unless it is required or you really need help. Even then, make sure you are not the only novice in a study group of experts. That could intimidate you into a passive role, where every one else will do the work and learn and you will just type the reports. Avoid the other extreme too. It is more convenient, less intimidating and therefore more tempting to surround yourself with other novices—blind leading the blind.

It its helpful on the first day to have everyone in the group express their expectations and commitments. Someone going for an H could make life miserable for the other three aiming just to pass—and vice verse. Setting a time frame for the group meeting is also very helpful. Activities have an amazing tendency to expand and contract themselves to fit the allocated time plus 10%.

GSB PEOPLE:
Initially, most people come in with a sense of excitement and openness. You are eager to meet everybody else and give them a chance to become friends. Soon, however, pressures star to build up. Your ego will undergo an unprecedented challenge, because for the first time in your life you are surrounded by people who are just as good if not better than you are. Rather than biting the bullet and accepting everyone as good people with equal but hopefully different talents, it becomes tempting for some people to adapt a cynical and fault-finding attitude. Joe may seem knowledgeable in finance, but his cold and arrogant manner is intolerable. Cathy’s comments may appear smart, but she is selfish and sure talks too much. Bill never talks. He must be dumb or something. The list of faults and judgments can go on and on.

I was guilty of many of the same judgments. I spent most of the first two quarters with people I had conveniently judged as “good” and avoided the ‘bad” ones. There were several occasions in the spring quarter and this summer when I was forced to spend time with some of the people I had avoided, either by being assigned to a group with tem or running into them on an interview trip. On every occasion, I quickly became ashamed of myself for the harsh judgments and found those judgments to represent more my own fears and paranoia than the other people’s shortcomings those people have become some of my closest classmates.

We are, for the most part, a bunch of very nice people here. In spring quarter I had a visiting professor teaching the strategic management course. He had asked us to write a few things about ourselves on 3”x5” cards to help him get to know us. He came back the next time expressing surprise that most of us had written about how warm and sensitive we were but had proceeded to apologize for it by saying we were working on becoming tougher. Most of us thought we were too nice and soft to make it in the cut-throat American business arena. The professor went on to say that we shouldn’t apologize for being warm and sensitive because the most successful CEOs are nice people and don’t fit the business media’s stereotypes. When he urged us not to change, the class of 60 burst into spontaneous applause–- a very rare occurrence in the middle of a lecture. This showed how common the concern was to everyone and how relieved we were to hear we were O.K. we really are a bunch of very nice people here, only sometimes we are afraid to show it openly.

I strongly urge you to fight negative judgments of your classmates. Instead, try hard to make positive interpretations. If someone has been cold to you, it might be that he is an arrogant “asshole,” but it may also be that his confidence is a fragile front, hiding his insecurity and the fact that you intimidate hem. To be sure, the GSB has its share of bad apples, but they are definitely a small minority. By actively judging people positively, you are exposing yourself to being hurt a little by a jerk. But that is a small price to pay to get to know many more wonderful people than your would otherwise take the chance on.

One other common and unfounded fear among most people is that they feel they don’t quite belong to the mainstream social life of the GSB. People have very different reasons for this paranoia: I am too young and inexperienced, I am too ole for this, I am a foreigner, I am from the Midwest and this is a California scene, only men seem to be running the show, these are rich kids and I am a farmer’s boy, this is really a palace for Ivy League investment bankers and consultants, etc. I have been shocked by hearing some of the most seemingly “in” and socially active classmates confide in me their frustration that they feel left out.

I am puzzled by this phenomenon and have no idea why it has happened. One contributing factor to it in my first year at the GSB could have been the sole media, The Reporter. It is only natural that the dozen regular contributors to The Reporter, in terms of articles or pictures, might frequently include their own friend. So you may get about 30 or so people who appear in face or name all the time. These people may have been perceived by everyone else as “in” Everyone else felt “out.”

Whatever the reasons might have been, I urge you to resist categorizing yourselves in the “out” category. There seem to be no mainstream life or group in the GSB. There are just many different groups. Some may seem more vocal or visible, but they are a small minority. If you feel comfortable with 5 or 6 people, consider yourself “in.”

RECRUITING:
Again, take it easy. Everyone who wanted a summer job got one. I ended up playing picky and landing my ideal job two weeks after the school was out. (most others had jobs long before then.)
If you want a non-traditional job or one that is very different from your past experiences, you may want to prepare yourself for a lot of rejections-something that you may not necessarily be used to. Summer jobs are much harder to find than permanent job, because there are fewer spots. If you just keep in mind that you will eventually have a job, you can take chances and experiment with the summer job search. This could be a very valuable experience for the permanent job search.

RESULTS:
It is easy to see your progress when learning new material daily. It is harder to see the more gradual internal changes in terms of your personality, confidence and attitude. These internal changes, I believe, are much more important than the specific academics you learn. Most people end up realizing how much they have changed only when they start their summer job. Going back to the real world is an amazing experience. We tend to forget that the GSB is a very unusual place, with extremely high standards. After a year here, these standards will become internalized in you. The real world often infested with mediocrity, will allow you to shine once again. This time much more brilliantly than ever before. It was worth all the pain, you may think. But remember, it can be as much pain and joy as you allow it to be.
