Corporate Barbarian Links: Corporate Re-Org Edition

My company is going through yet another reorganization in order to “rightsize” and position itself better in the marketplace.  Can layoffs be far behind?  Well, I don’t worry about layoffs, as I ‘ve alluded to in the past.  On a cheerier note, here are some good posts that I’ve read this week:

Jared at Technotheory shows us how he empties his inbox fast by learning from Google.  I think my foolproof file-naming system would work well with his approach.

Jonathan at Awake at the Wheel discusses the benefits of big hairy audacious goalsetting.  I’m more inclined to use the “baby steps” method, which allows me to break down large goals into small increments.

Jim at Bargaineering asks: What is your dream job?  Mine was always centerfield for the Yankees, but I just don’t have the wheels for it anymore. ;-)

Steve at Brip Blap believes that there is no cost to good health.  I agree.  Most people would rather take a pill after the fact than take care of themselves with a good diet and exercise.

In a guest post at Five Cent Nickel, Kevin offers some suggestions for when your job is in jeopardy.  Actually, these are good suggestions for even when your job is not in jeopardy.

Free Money Finance asks: Do you dread Mondays?  I’m usually pretty productive on Mondays, as I tackle my To-Do list (At least nobody can say I’m having a case of the Mondays).

Jacob at Early Retirement Extreme tells us to spend a little more for classics.  Well-made items last longer, and are cheaper in the long run than disposable junk.

Brett at The Art of Manliness gives us some motivational posters featuring George S. Patton.  I love how George C. Scott portrayed Old Blood & Guts in the movie.

Peter at Bible Money Matters wonders if schools should be required to teach personal finance classes.  I think it’s a great idea, just ask my son!

No Credit Needed talks about micro-goals and staying motivated.  I follow this thinking, and think even small progress is a positive thing.

Patrick at Cash Money Life and his wife received a special delivery from the stork.  Congratulations!

Happy reading!
