Have updated the blog layout (Again) so it looks neater and much easier to access. This layout is done after gathering information from comments. Hope you guys can comment on it.
About this blog, it's setup to let the members know of the happenings, because I'm running out of SMSes (I sound like an old man.) to send and
the different timetables that some members have. That is why there is a need to check here daily for any updates. Not only that,
all future events and any changes in meetings or plans will also be posted here.As to meetings and timings; it's towards the left side of this blog. These are compulsory meetings, no excuses. They are only the most common slots that most of us can meet up and discuss. You certainly don't want the weekends to burn in Mac and doing up the project right?Meetings are done because you update yourself with the group progress and
you yourself will contribute to the meeting, either by voicing out or doing whatever work you couldn't do over the days. More people, easier to work around for a solution.
'Every little small contributions count towards a project.'Unless you are sick/FYP/Valid reasons, otherwise don't anyhow excuse yourself for nothing.In the event you really cannot make it to any of the meetings, it would be best that you inform someone beforehand about it, either through me, or any other members.
You are doing it not for me, but for yourself by accounting for your own absence. It's not good, for people to wait for you and expecting you to come but didn't in the end. It's also not fair to those who are waiting for you.
Managing a 10 person team is definitely no small feat. I cannot keep trying to catch up on your attendance in meetings, it would be tiring if I have to do it for each and everyone.
That's why please take the initiative to inform me if you cannot make it. I'm not an asshole, I don't get angry just because you are really sick and couldn't even walk around properly. I mean, isn't it a waste of time if you come and you are sick, unhappy and not willing to do any work than staying at home and resting more? I would prefer the later choice. For one, I'm not burdened with abusing you guys and you can rest up more and get yourself in shape more quickly.
I deeply appreciate all those who have attended the meetings till now even with their busy timings and have taken the initiative to inform me that you cannot make it.I'm a demanding person, no doubt about it, because I felt that there are times to be serious and there are times to be funny.
In this project, you are going to do it for yourself, and the team. Not me. I'm just here to guide and make sure everyone have their own contributions to the project. In return, I will contribute as much as possible to the project.This post might be offending to some, or some might even don't like me or even hate the way I do things. But I don't care what are your feelings toward me, End of the day, we are
in as a group, out as a group.
