Bear's Log

A great quote I just heard while listening to Merlin Mann’s latest video:

A knowledge worker has to figure out his or her own job every day and then do something about it.

That really made me sit up and take notice because it’s something I have to do every day myself when I switch between doing developer support, tools management, server support and operations - and that’s just the $dayjob.

I’ve often wondered why, as I sit at the end of the day, i’ve looked at my todo list and very few items have been worked on but yet i’ve done a full days work.

Again, just an observation about the obvious probably :) - have no idea if it’s needs fixing or not.
