Balatonfüred From The Tower

Balaton is more than just the lake itself, which is known to everyone who like looking behind the scene and want to get a better overview of the things.

Balaton is not only the beach where you can swim, play balls with children, and not only the water where you can catch fish from or not only the lake in which you can sail, but the vineyards and the forests around, the horse riding schools, the churches, the museums with all their cultural heritage.

This is the same with IT. Information Technology is far more than installing Windows or solving Excel issues al the time.

Some very good HR consultants say that they know IT and they understand IT, which is ridiculous. After spending 12 years in the industry and gaining 10 years of deep experience in software development I cannot say that I know IT with all its details, either. At least, what I can say is I understand IT, as the cake is so big that you can be lucky to say that you understand that particular field enough you are specialized in.

What is a holiday good for, do you think?

Well, most people would say it is great for traveling, doing sports, sleeping enough, to be with family, meeting friends, drinking some wine, reading magazines, learning languages, twittering, bloging, etc., which is all very well doing. But I would add some more to it. Of course you will leave behind the stress of work, and if you are an IT recruiter you will forget about Development Managers, IT Project Managers, Business Analysts, J2EE and .NET developers, Delphi Developers, ANSI C Programmers, Embedded System Programmers, C++ Developers, Linux and Solaris Experts, Windows Server Experts, MS SQL DBAs, MOM 2005 specialists, Software QA Specialists, SAP Consultants, Remote Desktop Specialists and IT Helpdesk Agents, etc. You will stop thinking about generating revenue and making profit for the multis. And what else on earth can you do then? Well, again what you can do is not only swimming on the surface of the lake, but dive deeper. Not intensively only in the back of your mind. Build new strategies and make new quality relationships and maintain the existing ones. This not about doing business during your holidays. This more, this is about generating new ideas. And a great idea can save a thousand hours of working time. This not about talking about work with your friends. This more, this is about deepening your relationship with them, so that you can ask for help from them when you need it on weekdays.

So, spend your holidays with lots of sports and be with friends and your family but never forget that this is also the preparation for your next project.

What I can say though  is that I understand IT.
