Some Rules to Live By ?

Once upon a time I worked for this really cool company in Norway.

We had a company handbook, like everywhere, but this one started a little differently.

Work:	You spend at least half of your waking time at work – get the most out of it!
Solutions:	Do not choose the easiest solution; choose the one you think is right!
Work pressure:	The reward is usually proportional to the difficulties.
Things you dislike:	Do something about them; improve them if they are important enough.
Work instructions:	Until you are certain someone else has taken over the responsibility, it is your own.
Colleagues:	Find out which ones are important to you (organizational chart disregarded) and treat them accordingly.
Instincts:	Be skeptical of some instincts, do some of the things you dislike the most, talk to some of the persons you dislike the most.
Performance:	If you are honest with yourself, you are the best judge.
Improvements:	You are allowed to propose improvements, even if you are not perfect yourself.
Obedience:	If you are convinced that you are right, stick to it.
Personality:	Be yourself. Like yourself. Improve yourself.
Mistakes:	Admit them.
Chances:	Take them
