His company is not exempted from this economy crisis punishment. There will be closure for weeks. Rumor has it that next year gonna be worse. Company may opts for 3 or 4 days work. It is very uncertain life indeed. But Jesus say this: Do not worry about your life.....life is more than these..... So believe that God cares us.

Whose responsibility is it to develop a close knit community within the workplace ? Employers? Employees? We see many employers try to foster good relation among the employees by organizing family day, annual dinner and brain washing training. Does it work? Often time we get a niche group within the employees. It could be a lunch partner, a gossip mate or car-pooler. Well, after all, no man is an island. Wouldn't it be good if all employers can offer freebies at  workplace like what Google does?
