Denver Offsite

 Had a leadership offsite in Denver this past week... here are some random thoughts and nuggets.

  • First night arrival had dinner with my immediate team... we are not cohesive.  Too many awkward silences and forced-small-talk.  Dunno what to do
  • Forced my team to have seafood with me the first night... I think that was a mistake.  Or was it?
  • I've been through the mechanical manufacturing at least 3 times... this time, things finally made sense.  
  • Going through SEC... I also know so much more than I did the first 3-5x I went through the shop.
  • Sunnyvale is no where near Denver in terms of volume, action, opportunity.
  • Watching the Denver L4's and L5's give a tour... I don't think my 4's and 5's stand a lick
  • I should've moved to Denver 10+ years ago.  I might be Director or VP by now.
  • Shared a car with Tony...and he was the driver.  Dunno how I like having my legs cut off from underneath me.  I couldn't go anywhere.
  • I hate flying.
  • I won my turf war....for now.  Maybe it was a turf battle.  I was so happy when I celebrated.
  • I am blessed.
