Office Politics
Last night I was invited by my colleagues join them for drinks after work to celebrate a couple's recent marriage. Both of them are our chief medical directors. I declined it for some personal reason.

Today my colleague told me that it was really bad since there were only 4 people showed up. I told her that people all have life after work, it's understandable that not many people can make it last night.

In reply, she said "office politics is very important since you never know when you will need their help, especially they are in the higher position". "We all should make time for it."

Honestly, I don't believe it's ALL THAT important if you do your work with competency and professional courtesy.

Manhattan isn't for me!!
Just took a walk, again, on Manhattan streets after my lunch.
It was a great walk. However, there are too many people smoking in Manhattan.
Every morning I got out of the subway statin in Manhattan, I smell smoke.
Lunch time, even more people smoking outside their work buildings. At Madison Sqare Park, it's precious to find a seat without people smoking next to you for just 5 minutes.
After work, I am dying for clean air. I still smell heavy smoke in this 2 blocks walk.

I don't know how people can live in Manhattan with all the cigarette smoke only for its convenience. Just not for me!! And it's not fair to people who don't smoke.
