Today's meeting was COOL.. I bet none of the candidates expected it. Anyway, what nicholas said makes lots of sense. Thanks Nicholas. Read his tag on the tagboard. Simply, i think it is good to put meetings, training etc 3 mins earlier so that no one will be late. Although that feels like primary school, I believe it will somehow work well. Look at our 7mins rule. It contributes to our "sluggish culture of SAJC (as quoted by Mr Lim Chong Sheng)". During OCIP camp, the usual shout phrase was "Where's your sense of urgency!". Maybe we should add it to track use if our punctuality problem doesn't change.
