SHORT WEEK
It's very indulgent to have both Monday and Friday off. I could say something about how that makes for a more stressful three days but really, who would I be kidding?
Got my Shuffle last night. It's a glorified memory stick but I'm still very pleased. Now if I can only update my OS, I can actually use the darn thing...
And my American Institute of Certified Planners certificate arrived today. Now I have something other than maps to put on my cubicle wall. Along with it came with an equally sized AICP Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct. It's unclear whether or not the Code is going up next to the Certificate. Here's the first principle:
The Planner's Responsibility to the Public
A planner's primary obligation is to serve the public interest. While the definition of the public interest is forumulated through continuous debate, a planner owes allegiance to a conscientiously attained concept of the public interest.
Sounds nice, doesnt it? I think I'm leaning towards yes.
