This post will contain (potential) fixes to resolve that problem.

I use the Firefox (FF) browser. Perhaps if you install FF on your MAC, the "edit icons" might become visible.

Go to this site to download FF. It is 7.1 megs.

If the fix works, please add a comment to this post.

If you use a MAC and not FF, and you see teh edit icons, please add a comment with details about your MAC and browser.]]> <![CDATA[Additional information for my Career Convergence article about the Wikipedia article on career development 12/1/2008]]> http://lifeworkps.com/hubbard/weblog/3737.html http://lifeworkps.com/hubbard/weblog/3737.html Thu, 28 Aug 2008 16:25:33 GMT Thank you for reading my Career Convergence article entitled "WANTED: Co-editors for Wikipedia articles about career development and related topics".

]]> <![CDATA[I've had 13 jobs over 28 years]]> http://lifeworkps.com/hubbard/weblog/3539.html http://lifeworkps.com/hubbard/weblog/3539.html Thu, 24 Apr 2008 00:44:00 GMT I've had 13 jobs since I graduated from college; ten (10) while I worked for IBM.


I planned for seven (7) of these transitions and the rest were a total surprise - some good, some not so good.


I have been very happy with most of my jobs, but I will always wonder what my life would have been like had I know some simple career planning skills.


Life happens!


You never know when you will be offered a new job or you will have to start looking for one.


But the more you know about yourself, the better prepared you are for any eventuality.


Planning for a transition is never easy when you just found out about it or are in the middle of it. That is why the best time to plan for that eventual transition is when you are happy and secure in one.


If you agree, take a look at a roadmap for this blogging platform to see if it is right for you.

    GEORGE CARLIN (His wife     recently died...)
                          [] 

    Isn't it amazing that George Carlin - comedian of the 70's and 80's - could write something so very eloquent...and so very appropriate.

         A Message by George Carlin:

    The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider Freeways    , but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.

    We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.

    We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.

    We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better things.

    We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.

    These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete...

    Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.

    Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.

    Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.

    Remember, to say, "I love you" to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.

    Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again.

    Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.

    AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:

    Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

    If you don't send this to at least 8 people....Who cares?

                             George Carlin
