Skunk works

3 + 3 is 6 and 3 x 3 is 9. If you can get factors to multiply togther rather than just add, you can be on to a winner. This has been the case since time immemorial - if you double the dimensions of a ship, you increase 8 fold the internal volume, allowing for a more powerful engine, more fuel, more cargo space and more passenger comfort.

What I learn in my work I can use for related hobby / leisure activities, and what I learn in my activities outside of Well House Consultants' requirements I can use as appropriate within. We're actively encouraging of this - the term "skunk works project"s has been used, and thus the title of this piece. Helps us and our staff develop, though with clear notes that the result needs to be neutral of for our interests, and that it's clear that such projects are not done under the auspices of the company, but are independent. See our posting policy if you want to read further how we're encouraging this form of staff (and our own) development.

This is a page archived from The Horse's Mouth at http://www.wellho.net/horse/ - the diary and writings of Graham Ellis. Every attempt was made to provide current information at the time the page was written, but things do move forward in our business - new software releases, price changes, new techniques. Please check back via our main site for current courses, prices, versions, etc - any mention of a price in "The Horse's Mouth" cannot be taken as an offer to supply at that price.
