My test was goood!! I think I did well, it wasn't easy, but I think I was able to solve the problems correctly. I hope I did REALLY good, coz I need the good grades.
I actually like the analogy you used, it fits perfectly...and it pleased the philosopher in me.
Politics and economics ARE games, if you know how to play, you can survive, and even win. But I am not really into politics all that much, I mean I like to know the theory behind all, like you said, and I watch the election debate when we have elections, just coz I like debates, but other than, actual and current politics don't really interest me all that much.
I understand your frustration completely with managers completely. Unfortonately, the ones who are supposed to be managing refuse to do the job, I don't know why, even tho they'll probably be more efficient at it because they experience in the field. Plato was right when he wrote his Allegory of the Cave; the wise usually refuse a position of power, when actually THEY should be the ones running things. I'm sure he said it in a much more eloquent way, but that sums it up lol
which reminds me, how are the readings going so far? and how did your long weekend? hopefully you got to relax?
