through no ones fault but his own. Right now I'm feeling dumb as a pile of bricks 'cos I drifted away from this a bit, which I can't justify since I've been posting more than usual at the eye but mostly I feel like a deer in the headlights. For this I apologize. We all have other stuff going on but I totally lost the ball in the sun.
I think the three core contributors have done a ton of great stuff and I appreciate it so much. I'm not used to working on something asynchronously with so many folks, it just feels like too many chefs in the kitchen, and each chef has more than a little anarchist in him/her. I know I do which makes it difficult for me to contribute which is very ironic since I worked in organizational and leadership development for a few years and spearheaded self-directed (smoke and mirrors) teamwork. I still have flashbacks and post traumatic stress syndrome from it.
I guess what I'm hinting at is that I don't feel I have any value to add until the concrete hardens just a bit and promise not to try to undo anything that's been agreed upon. Give me a specific problem and I'll try to kill it for you. I might be able to work on the dead guy since his interaction is short lived.
I don't know why I'm struggling with this, but like I said I lost sight.
If you prefer to saw off my non-contributing branch I totally understand and respect you for it.
Thanks
John

Willie here,
ReplyDeleteAu Contraire John, you have already made important contributions. I tend to agree about too many anarchists, but that is why MissI has a big stick somewhere. We just do as we are told.
Don't you have a pet character you'd like to see in the mix? Is PeterLake too deeply attached to the eye?
