Found one flying bug today. Plus some ants.
Thinking about long-range planning at an old folks asylum. I understand that management should be thinking. planning and even acting long range. And, management pays lip service to resident involvement in the process. But, reality check: we are old people. I am not sure I need to buy a Five Year Diary. Or an extended warranty on anything.
So, management has meetings to “Report on the Strategic Plan”. Where they talk about how good it is going to be when…
Some day when… we implement/install the wonderful “Smart Apartment” hardware/software. Well, by the time management gets the “smart apartment” going it will be obsolete and in the meantime, one of my neighbors really wants an Alexa device but she has no smartphone and no amazon account. Instead of a grand “Smart Apartment” 5 years down the road, management should figure out how to deploy an AWS Enterprise Alexa system and just give the residents a Dot and Echo Connect to plug in and they would be good to go with no setup. And no ability to order a case of condoms.
After they deploy this stop-gap system – then start working on what might be the next big thing for the smart apartment (senior style).
But don’t tell me how good it is going to be after I am dead.
