I used to admire Allen Iverson. He was the smallest, yet, the toughest player on the court. I didn't care much about his "Practice!" rant, cuz he delivered when it counted. I even bought his jersey.
Sadly, at the end of his illustrious career, he is now the definition of selfishness, an example of how not to approach the game, an afterthought, and what hurts me the most, a joke.
用了幾天的時間去準備今天要開的會議。過程原來是輕鬆的,跟大老闆說笑是快樂的,能回答所有的問題是充滿信心的,看上去準備十足是滿意的;但,每答對一條問題,再說『問得好,我正要說這個,請看看 slide #23 的圖。。。』時,心裡害怕風頭會蓋過我的直接上司。很多人都對市政府的大老闆 two thumbs up,經歷了今天的兩個小時,我都要給他兩隻手指公:十分謙虛,有禮,down to earth;十分聰明;十分的十分。(Note:市政府的大老闆不是市長。市長是人民選的,是政客。)
