Some Weekend Thinking

SocialTwist Tell-a-Friend

OK, so my thoughts don't range too far outside my family and things like going to the park with my kids, grocery shopping, being with friends, gardening, cleaning and rearranging things in the house (which I'm sure is a perpetual thing for most normal folk with kids), BBQing, and generally enjoying the summer (even thought it has been cool and rainy here so far).

I guess it's no surprise that not too many blog on the weekends, but of all the news feeds I receive I kept on seeing one common theme, and had one common thought. Poor Jerry Yang. Not only was the co-founder and current CEO of Yahoo under the microscope, but with the official rejection of Microsoft's offer to acquire Yahoo coming through this past week, many are looking at him with scathing remarks as a buffoon.

Everyone is an armchair CEO, and we can all in hindsight make perfect decisions. We can also make great decisions if we don't have to be in the grind of the situation.

Through whatever difficulties I have been through with Trading Post, I have always been told by friends and acquaintances who are in business themselves that there are issues wherever you go - that doesn't change. It's how you approach them and resolve them that does matter.

I for one figure we'll see what happens. I never thought that a Microhoo company would necessarily be that harmonized anyway.
