They may not even have items from home, such as a photography from home, or stuffed toys or decor ornaments. So, they reveal very little about their private life and you can be sure that they are very objective and get things done very quickly.<BR/><BR/>Then, of course, there are those who clutter their desk with notes, books, publications etc. More or less, you can sense that they are the insecure type...who need all the information on hand before they make decisions etc. <BR/><BR/>Nevertheless, clutter is still seen to be unsightly and undesirable. It hampers productivity as time is oftne lost trying to find the file that you need of or that very important document for an urgent meeting.Fat Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05729083115071298492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134927702478343838.post-53602739430346073642007-05-06T20:28:00.000-07:002007-05-06T20:28:00.000-07:00Actually, many of the big co's just as bad.Actually, many of the big co's just as bad.Lam Chun Seehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01762020157703342970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134927702478343838.post-507446290849709762007-05-05T18:49:00.000-07:002007-05-05T18:49:00.000-07:00By looking at Chun See's pictures of bad 5S practi...By looking at Chun See's pictures of bad 5S practice, we should know why many fires occurred at SME workshops.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134927702478343838.post-57993562899913226702007-05-05T18:44:00.000-07:002007-05-05T18:44:00.000-07:00The recycling movement is now pretty strong in Sin...The recycling movement is now pretty strong in Singapore, because many waste products can be sold for money like old newspapers, clothings, electrical appliances, steel/aluminium articles and the likes. The disposal of these items are not much of a problem, provided owners of such items take trouble to pack them nicely and place them at appropriate places for cleaners to collect. As a result, owners practising good house-keeping, while cleaners and junk-collectors are able to carry out their jobs with less hazzle, making some extra money . Isn't such a practice good for everyone?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134927702478343838.post-82579432399232831952007-05-04T07:21:00.000-07:002007-05-04T07:21:00.000-07:00On Labour Day my family wanted to eat Indian Musli...On Labour Day my family wanted to eat Indian Muslim food for lunch and the nearest place was at Jln Leban, upper Thomson Road. We saw the popular Prata shop was packed to capacity, So we went to the next shop with less people. While eating, I noticed the owner of a seven-eleven type of shop next door happily serving a few customers with fruits from a large fridge outside his shop. Later we went into his shop to buy some sundry items. I was very impressed with the owner of this shop. If Chun See were to be there, he would have taken some photos of the shop that has good layout, clever display of his goods, and overall cleanliness. He may have copied the NTUC fair-price ways of doing things. Still I admire him because he is a one-man-operator. He acts as a cashier, a saleman, a sundry worker and a cheerful boss, all rolled into one. He is able to do this, because he is unknowingly practising 5S principles of good house-keeping.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
