Pom poko pom pom

It's been a hard day at work - it's very hard to watch incompetence even if it doesn't involve me directly. That - and a member of my team resigned today making me the second senior member in the team. This guy is really knowledgeable and I've learned so much from him - for us that are left in the team it's going to get harder before it gets any easier.

At least the wonderfully Japanese Pom Poko lifted my spirits a bit.

I have learned a long time ago the fact that it is not possible to build any normal enterprise on top talents. Actually you really must work with those people which are available, and they are ordinary people, from different parts of the normal distribution.

The problem (and solution) is to utilize each person's skills and avoid them causing too much damage. That makes the manager's role important.
