New Year’s Resolution

Posted in me, operations research by Francisco Marco-Serrano @ Dec 27, 2007

Again, it’s time for stupid New Year’s Resolution, it’s quitters time!. And, as it is so easy to lie to oneself (who actually accomplish to fulfill correctly his/hers resolutions?)… I’ll be writting more on this blog 

 

No, really, my New Year’s Resolution is to carry on with OR in my life. I’m proud of OR, and I won’t let it down!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Ethinomics/Ethonomics

Posted in business, economics, me, preferences by Francisco Marco-Serrano @ Dec 4, 2007

Once, during a seminar in Brazil I was questioned about ethics just because I said I didn’t want to (of course, anyone like myself would consider that a provocation for reaction…). Then, I said, I’m not a philosopher, but I won’t talk about it just because ethics and values are subjective so then not discussable.

 

Nowadays, trying to summarise my values and having read something about corporate responsibility I can say I’d have so a better anwser, based on ethinomics could be. I won’t discuss about my ethical views because they are probably so business-orientedly-distorted that everyone would consider them irrational. And I say: NO!, THEY AIN’T IT!. Why?: because of my value system, my moral code, and my view of making business. However, don’t get me wrong, I’m no angel (but no devil…).
