Rands in Repose: Knee Jerks
- swombat 17y agoNo need to add the site name, since it's listed afterwards. However, the subtitle would be useful. I'd rename this to: Knee Jerks: Your instantaneous first reaction That will get more/better attention.
- roryokane 17y ago"Your instantaneous first reaction" sound redundant. I like the current title better. Also, I'm not sure if I would have noticed it was from Rands in Repose from looking at the URL – there are no spaces or capitals, so I might have just skipped over it without processing it enough.
- epochwolf 17y agoInteresting. My reaction tends to vary. I do seem to fall into either Dr. No or My Bad
- donaq 17y agoYes, it is interesting. I'm usually Still Water or My Bad, depending on how much I like the person handing out the surprise or whether I think he did it on purpose.
- andrewcooke 17y agothat was a very good article and i'd encourage people to read past the hockey bit. thanks. i don't normally get much from these "managementy" posts, but that really made me think. hmm. although maybe it's just because it connects with other issues today.
- samdk 17y agoI'll have to start paying more attention to what I'm doing when I'm surprised. I think that for surprises that don't affect me on a personal/emotional level I probably identify closest with the Distiller. But for surprises that do, I really have absolutely no clue. While I'd like to think that I behave just as intelligently when a surprise affects me directly, I know that that's not true.
