The Forcek Assignment

  I loved The Forcek Assignment! I’ve read most of Ray Adam’s books and this is by far my favorite so far. It’s short, at about 110 pages, but that means it’s fast paced. There are only a few characters, so you only really get to know Roo Raker, but that’s enough. It has a plot which would be at home in any The Original Series Star Trek film, a mysterious red head and a couple of twists I should have seen coming and didn’t. I’ll never understand Ray’s obsession with creating characters who smoke, but that’s no detractor, and I was left with just one question - well lots of questions, but one big one - why is Roo Raker’s name never shortened?! The Forcek Assignment! Is the first of a trilogy, and I have the second lined up already. Ray Adams ISBN-13: ‎ 979-8679926462

Stop! Shower Time!

Naked Element to reward team for taking showers. While there is a lot to be said for meeting a problem head on, research has shown that removing oneself from a difficult task, even for a few minutes, can make all the difference when it comes to finding a solution. Engaging in a less mentally challenging activity frees the mind and allows it to consider different pathways and directions. How many times have you struggled to remember the name of a contact, only for it to come to mind while putting the kettle on? Or been stood in the shower and come up with a new way to tackle that tricky code issue at work? Back in the dim and distant past, our director Paul Grenyer lived in Leeds and worked as a software engineer in Sheffield. It was an 80 mile round trip by car everyday, not something that he relished, but that turned out to be his best time for solving software problems (the copious amounts of Black and Symphonic Metal he listened to while driving may have also helped, but that’s anot...
