月曜日は嫌いだ、月曜日は嫌いと言うことも嫌いだ。

という訳で、再び月曜日。

ロブが出張(兼旅行)から帰ってきて、チームが生き返った。

ベルビンの「チームの役割」の理論に当てはめると、彼は「資源の調査役」だ。

なぜなら、彼は外交的で、熱心でコミュニケーションがうまい、しかし過度に楽観的で飽きっぽい(ロブ、別に僕の意見じゃないよ)。

さて、話が180度変わるけれど、

日本はいいかげんに世界政治の場でもっと大きな声をあげなくてはだめだ。

こちらで報道される日本のニュースといえば、会社のスキャンダルかトヨタがまたものすごい利益をあげたとかいったものだけだ。

政治でスポットライトが当てられることがめったにない。

まったく、ヨーロッパはどんどんと大きくなっていっているというのに、日本ももっと世界政治に影響を与えなくちゃだめだ。

中国と対立ばかりしてる場合じゃない、EUみたいに、関係を深めていかなくちゃだめだよ。

サムソン頼むよ!(あ、サムソンは韓国か、韓国でもいい!)

次回の選挙は、すくなくとも英語がしゃべれる人が当選してほしいよ。



I hate Monday, and I hate saying that I hate Monday.

Anyway, it's Monday.

Rob has come back from his business trip (and holiday), invigorating the whole team.

According to Belbin's team roles theory, he is definately the 'resource investigator' who is an extrovert,

enthusiastic and communicative, but who is over-optimistic and loses interest once initial enthusiasm has passed

(if you ever happen to read this Rob, complain to Belbin, not me).

Changing the topic radically, I think it's about time that Japan start raising voices over the world's political table,

I mean, Japan is such a big country (still the second biggest economy in the world after USA), but I hardly hear news

about Japanese prime minister doing some radically good things (or even bad things) on the news.

The only news about Japan I hear are either about some corporate scandal or Toyota making record profit and so on and so forth, rarely about politics.

I mean, Europe is becoming so big with USA, Japan is right in the middle, yeah, Japan should not only be geographically be in the middle but

also should take a leading role in politics.

Japan should stop fighting with China, but start building up relationship like the nations in the EU.

Come on Samsung! (well, Samsung is Korea, it doesn't matter)

I hope in the next general election, the Japanese people at least vote someone who can actually speak English.
