Ethics and working events Now the fun part ^-^
Ethics and working events • Breaks • How long are your breaks? Do you remember them? Where were they? • Judge calls : answer or double check? • When you are not sure, what do you do? • Work or fun? • Is judging a job? Smiling? Chatting on the floor?
Ethics and working events • Feedback: • Do you write reviews? • Have you ever given feedback to another Judge? • Teamwork: • Have you ever switched jobs during a GP? • Judge dinner! • How many do you have during a GP?
Ethics and working events • Service • Is your country aware of customer service? • Chaos vs Hierarchy / Responsibility • If you are not sure, what do you do?
Culture, language, barriers • A more general look not about work ^-^
Culture, language, barriers • Are europeans good at English ? • Different jokes from one culture to another • Assertiveness • I’m agressive in Asia. • Assertive Judges (« Don’t do that. ») • Assertive players (« You shouldn't do that judge »)
Culture, language, barriers • A player slams the table. • Does it surprise you? • USC Minor ? • Are you part of a Judge Project ? • Have you seen a GP ending with a group hug ?
Travel costs (from Asia) • KL to Paris on Valentine’s Day : 470€ (but i think Sashi is a wizard) • KL to Moscow : 600€ • One day in Ireland : 50€?
What do I get? • Meeting new people • Challenge at communication and diplomacy • Learn new techniques (deck check, posting paper, 8-mans) • Some player / judges are coming to your region!
