Re-Tooling TBL

For several years TBL was a blog where I wrote about a wide variety of topics. Those postings are still in the Blog Archive and many are about professional development for engineers. I am now transitioning TBL to be a place where my current and former students can find information related to job searches.

And More

The temptation when traveling for work can be to spend days at work and evenings in the hotel. Don't do it. Get out and about and see the sites. Go for a hike, walk in the parks, go see the ocean, visit the monuments....

Tonite we are going out for lobster 20 miles away on the coast. We could get lobster around the corner, but we want to go see the ocean.

TBL: Somebody else is paying your travel expenses, build your life experiences at their expense.

This sure would be nice to have the time for, almost every work trip I have taken requires working the entire trip. My last position required about 1/2 of my time travel and it always seemed to be the smae "Work on the plane, work in the airport, and work at the hotel." Some times it is even meals ordered in to the hotel because the work has to be done for the next day to appease the customer. Jill
