My father passed away and the funeral was today, but it was crazy with my children, ages 3, 2, 2 and 0, at the funeral.
・A 2-year-old starts singing along to the Buddhist monks' sutras. ・A 3-year-old likes the incense and lines up multiple times. ・A 3-year-old who has just completed potty training starts crying because he can't make it to the toilet in time. ・The 3 older children start doing shuttle runs around the venue. ・A 0-year-old poops all over the place and gets covered in poop.

On TV, an Italian said, 'Short pasta is good for lunch. If you eat long pasta, the sauce can splash and stain your work clothes.' This contains two shocking insights.

1) Short pasta is good for lunch. 2) Even if you're Italian, the sauce on long pasta splashes.

Apparently I was under investigation for fraud, and if I didn't take action immediately, I would be in big trouble.

I didn't know what to do, so I put the speaker on and listened to the details with the person in charge.

In my previous department, there was a problem with many defects being overlooked, but after my boss changed and I found a defect and reported it, he said, 'The person who found it has already earned the credit, so the other members will share the work of correcting it,' and since then, the number of defects being overlooked or ignored has dropped dramatically. It was not good that this culture meant that people who noticed or spoke up were at a disadvantage.
