Snakes.. yikes...

The boss sent this to the whole team.. hmm I don't think I did good this year... too many slacking off...

In our daily working on issue or project, the result is either the following 1,2,3 :

1. Keep bitting around the bushes
- lots of activities but issue remains unresolved, days after days, weeks after weeks, months after months. Just like the famous song " blame it on the star, blame it on the moon, blame it on the rain, but whatever it is, don't put the blame on me". Smart supervisor will not buy this song.

2. Caught the snake
- you got the containment action, but since you don't kill the snake, it will come back again.

3, Kill the snake
- you implement the permanent solution. It has never been easy. Smart supervisor know this and reward is yours.

You are equipped with the appropriate skill-set. It is yr own choice to behave as either 1, 2 or 3. Smart supervisor can judge accurately based on the evidence on seeing the dead snake. Today, pls take 15 mins to reflect/review yr past and present issue/project, tick them against 1,2,3. I am doing the same for mine. Thanks.
