Municipality of #Westland trying to make savings in the dark?
The Municipality of Westland has decided to only have street lighting in the rural areas where this benefits safety. I am very much in favor of cutbacks where possible, but this produces a very dark picture for us. Left towards the built area, where ample lighting is still on. It is dark with us, but to the right a lamp burns now and then. Is the traffic at our house safer than there? Pedestrians, cyclists and freight traffic use the same space over the entire length (and 3m width…)!

At the RAMIRI training (Realising and Managing International Research Infrastructure) I followed in Trieste this week, one sentence particularly resonated with me. It was by Kimo Koski (CSC Finland) who was remarking that it takes effort to keep an organization customer focused as it grows.
Starting at about 100 people an organization can keep it self fully busy without ever serving a customer.
While I was working for Bruker AXS, our Sales director Paul Ulrich Pennartz used to say something related sometimes when he was in a cynical mood:
Without those pesky customers we would finally be able to concentrate on our work.
If you've ever wondered why small companies are more responsive than large ones, I think these two people summarize the cause quite well.
(Note: both quotes were reproduced in essence, this is not literally what they said)
