Responsive open minded or get defensive...

Responsive open minded
or get defensive against CONSRUCTIVE critisism
that's the questionÌý Ìý:)

Many tell stories about the second about Filipinos, who screw up by wanting to do their own way even when it's stupid. (I jump telling exceptions, I ssuppouse many know own examples.) Foor instance a friendÌý from back in Elementary school, who mooved to Phils 30+ years ago.Ìý He is basicly a chef but and tried to teach Filipinos to stop eat unhealthy mainly about how to fry, but he gave upÌý :)

BUT there are good examples of good exceptions of Filipinos, who want to learn the good parts from "western" countries:
/That friend of mine started daily jogging tours. In the beginning the Filipinos found him nuts, but Filipinos are good at copyingÌý :)Ìý Ìýand now many have copiied so rather many exersise in that small town.
/My business partner had learned things from an American before I found him and he continue to want to learn things which can reduce powerty.
/The goverment has copied Swedish "Ombusman"Ìý Ìý :)
/Recently I found a group with all Filipinos plus II and a German-AmericanÌý Ìý:)Ìý Ìý about rural businesses related to what I'm starttingÌý There I made a topic talking about a main problem for this business type and talked a bit about how much earning can be added to the Philippines by changing thinking and method in this business type.Ìý I thought most would get grumpy by I critisise Phils, but the CONTRARY. ALL agree to what I wrote and many told they wish to learn the effective "western" method. Except ONE who got grumpy and said this will be solved the Filipino way.Ìý But the Filipino way is proven crapÌý Ìý Ìý:)Ìý by hpw it has been screwed up at least 50 yearsÌý :)Ìý Ìýand faaaaarfrom solving any of the two main problems.Ìý And I got to know yesterday not even in college for such business type they teach a methiod suiting profesional handling!!!Ìý Ìý So perhaps I will start such courseÌý Ìý:)Ìý Ìýalthough foreigners are NOT allowed to be such teachers, BUT are allowed to "instruct" Filipino teachersÌý Ìý:)

I think it's best with a COMBINATION of FFilipino and "western" thinking.Ìý So I have asked Filipinos a lot before I made my oppinions and plans.

I use spell checker to correct me when I make errors so not to make the same mistakes
over and over. I would recommend using an external keyboard on your laptop. Maybe a big key and lighted keyboard.

Congratulations on being a higher boss I would think higher bosses realize and could afford to purchase a large key keyboard to solve a simple problem. I use a laptop also with external lighted keyboard, external mouse and external monitor.

I'm sure you can understand the meaning of measure twice cut once, so as with your posts, you have a chance to edit your posts. (reumatism, jkeyboard, stoped, fiunctioning, ssoon, collehe, normaly.)

There you made a second error.Ìý Not only higher boss - Highest boss.Ìý The middle and higher boss levels I were at allready as teenager....Ìý Ìý:)Ìý Ìý(First group boss in production and when they noticed my team got things done 1.5 times faster than the other groups, then they offered me (lomng ttime substitute) planning boss poisition in the second bigest in Sweden such type of distribution business. )
At age 24 I started own such business covering a province, because I had noticed I could do such both better and cheaper than themÌý Ìý:)Ìý Ìý(Grew it to 70 employees allready within a year, to 115 before I sold it.,)Ìý Ìý
Parallell I got elected chairman and main leader in a sports club, which were only 40 members and had bad results. It became close to 1000 members and second best in Sweden
before I moved and did close to similar in an other sports club.Ìý That was some funny.. When I moved members in the first club said:
-SoÌý now you will go and make them good too?
-No. Now I will relax and just start playing tennis and table tennis at club level myself.
But it took only a few months befoe I felt sorry for them, so I felt I "had to" assist themÌý :)Ìý Ìýso I made them 9th youth club national in only 2 years.

Now I¨m retired. Left to see if I will be satisfied with growing the new business in Phils just small,
but as a joke I have said to my business partner the goal is geting all such businessÌý productioin in that regionÌý Ìý:)

My original response to you is "do you use spell checker".

But your response is how great you are, we all know how great and benevolent you are from many previous posts.

People who are great and benevolent like you, shy away from letting the world know, they quietly carry on with their success and good deeds.

manwonder

I see/feel the passion....you can take away my spell checker but you cannot take away my freeeedddooom.

In your quote you had EXCLUDED an IMPORTANT part, showing you still don't get it, so I added it...Ìý :D
Of course you made a new error, missinterpreeting the REASON to my answer, still not understanding effective highest bosses don't bother about spelling we bother sbout CONTENT...Ìý Ìý
So I did write a part of my CV just to show positions I have reached WITHOUT using spell check...Ìý :lol:

Now I'm kind of retired, so during I wait for the new business to get started, I have time to coment such error in thinking as people as you have. Earlier I would just fire such people or never hired if it was I who made the employment...Ìý Except acountants. THEY better bother to make details exactÌý Ìý:)Ìý
(To add an other example of positions I have reached without using spell checkÌý :)Ìý ÌýI got a "company doctor" assignment for the third bigest nationaly in a type of business, when they had got crisis in the region where I lived.Ìý (I got it without even meeting any of them, I suppouse by they knew them, who gave me the Planning boss job when I were teenager.) They had fired the region boss allready because of the big mess, but I "inherited" all the other around 80 employees. I started with telling them both some benifits I added for them and:
-Forget all of how things have beenÌý done here before. There are so many system errors so weÌý start rebuilding from scratch. BeforeÌý any salary payout I will check if each of you have done the work for clients good enough.
Allready after 6 months the headquarter said we had gone ftom crisis to their best region, so we got the extra jobs for clients, who hesitated and wanted to do test before they did something national.
Then I found a new region boss material and tought him how to do, before I left for other challengesÌý :)

Off topic but I have used spell/grammar checker for near 30 years, my choice and surprised at times by my misspelling most times typing too quick and perhaps fat fingers.

I and I'm sure others understand the OP's posts, at times a second read but legible, his post was about this exact scenario, simply remember that english is not every ones first language and as we all well know here, tolerance and some patience can be a virtue and then some.

I am sure some people get annoyed with my lengthy posts at times but have had the decency to not condemn, pick holes or simply skip my at times lengthy input.
An open forum for all as long as we abide by the rules.

OMO.

Cheers, Steve.

Sorry coach 53 but to add to my previous post defending you I would now have to agree to the broken record insinuations, we all have long and at times boring life stories but this site is about expats in the Philippines and not about what we accomplished in previous lives or other countries, move on here with your new enterprise and advise accordingly per se.

Only an observation and don't take offence.

BTW no mistakes with spell checker. Woohoo.

Cheers, Steve.

I agree, you are the highest boss and and I'm just a bottom feeder. So, I'm finished with this pissing up a rope contest.

bigpearl

Only from my lowly plebeian existence and observations. I didn't stir the pot and as an open forum? I'm sure Filipinos care little whether we use spell check or how our previous lives evolved,,,,, here it is now, at best tomorrow. This is where we live or for many where they want to live and perhaps some good examples should be set,,,,,, my guess is the moderators will remove some posts or lock the topic and rightly so.

Yes.Ìý Remember IÌý started the topic about the Philipppines, but it BECAME off topic by Enzyte Bob's totaly off topic posts...Ìý Ìý:)Ìý Ìý and I wrote part of my CV just as example and PROOF of correctness ofÌý the conclusion the college made research made about spelling (and grammar) erors are most made buy high bosses. Well.Ìý To tell the truth I write such parts of my CVÌý to petimeters ,who complain about spelling or grammar INSTEAD of writing about the content, to show how small they are as persons, shown by they find it important to complain about spelling...Ìý :)

BtwÌý them with English as first language, who I have done business with, even when I were at the seller side, have never complained about my English, not even my terrible pronounsiationÌý Ìý:lol:
