The Midyear Report

It's been more than 6 months since I last posted here (my bad).   Anyway, after welcoming 2011, we're now in the middle of it.  Time really does fly fast.  Ever since  I started work for MSL, my online work was pushed in the back burner (which is really a good thing).  I am now on my way to my 7th month (I started work officially on December 2010).  So far, am doing good.  Can't really complain.  Thus far, MSL saw four employees go.  The first one was Joseph (he found himself spread too thin.  Told him he should focus on what he should have been doing in the first place).  Then a new writer came in, her name was Isey.  She didn't last for a week!  She felt she didn't belong.  Then Lawrence was let go (creative differences).  Then Erwin had to resign and seek greener pastures in Singapore.  He's now successful finding work there.  Finally, May was let go.  Details on that to follow.
