For the past 48-72 hours I have had problems. Issues.
We all have problems and issues, of course and not all of them are easy to solve. Other issues take time to pan out but at least I can get the solution phase off to a good start, as a rule.
When I have problems that are particular vexing, I usually ask around by little network of friends and acquaintances. I’ll ask my “primary advisor” plus two there people as a rule: yes, a three-judge panel, if you want to call it that.
I occasionally try and include one person who has no very specific knowledge of the problem (that I may have been talking about for sometime).
I do have a rule that I do stick to: If I hear the same thing from two or more people, then I think that is usually the right thing to do...but not always
So this morning, when I was setting out on my journey to solve problems and issues, I started out with this:
And I ended it with problems...on the way to being solved
I guess that I wrote this because I am genuinely...nosy about the rough outlines of how others go about this process.
Comments below the fold.
TOP COMMENTS
Brillig's ObDisclaimer: The decision to publish each nomination lies with the evening's Diarist and/or Comment Formatter. My evenings at the helm, I try reeeeallllyy hard to publish everything without regard to content. I really do, even when I disagree personally with any given nomination. "TopCommentness" lies in the eyes of the nominator and of you, the reader - I leave the decision to you. I do not publish self-nominations (ie your own comments) and if I ruled the world, we'd all build community, supporting and uplifting instead of tearing our fellow Kossacks down. Please remember that comment inclusion in Top Comments does not constitute support or endorsement by diarist, formatter, Top Comments writers or DailyKos. Questions, complaints or comments?
