上星期和老細吵了一場架.數個月前他要求我去找幾個影印機牌子的機比較,以便他作出更改的決定.一開始我便對他說不如用用開的牌子,一來有名氣,二來一直問題不大,三來這是他的個人喜好,但他卻說我們應該公平地看一看其他牌子,以便我們作一個客觀的平估…
當我真的下了苦工找出幾隻牌子的優劣及價錢,我發覺有另一隻牌子無論在工能及價錢都比較優勝,可是都最後他卻選擇了原先的牌子,我問他原因為何,他答我說不出,只是其他牌子沒有另他改變初衷的理由.我說我以為我的工作是要找出最好的影印機,但我覺得他想的只是利用其他牌子的資料去證明他的想法!
一對情侶去找其他人時,到底是騎牛搵馬還是去引證現有的對方是正確的選擇呢?
Last week I had a fight with my boss. A few months ago he wanted me to compare several brands of copiers so that he could make some decisions on what to get. At the beginning I suggested to make things simple and just stick to the same brand as we’ve been using. After all, it’s a famous brand; it’s got few problems; and it’s really his personal choice to begin with. However, he said we should do our due diligence for an objective assessment…
When I really spent the effort to compare the brands I found that another brand was much better at cost and features…yet he chose the original brand still. I asked him why but he said he couldn’t tell me why except that he did not see any compelling reason to switch brands. I said I thought my task was to find the best copier. Instead I felt that he was just trying to use the information from other brands to prove his point about his favorite brand all along!
When a couple goes out to have affairs, are they looking for better partners or proofing that they’ve made the right choice all along?
