Sorry
June 26, 2008 | Category: General | 2 Comments

Ah sorry guys I feel like a bum for not posting for so long. The worst is that after you leave it for a while you want to post something worth posting up. Then as you leave it longer and longer, the harder it is to post something which will at least be something which is worth saying or kewl or helpful or something rather than a sucké sorry post. BUT these things happen and do to me and after this much of a hiatus what can I say.
For the past year really, which is the time I changed my job I’ve been stuck in a little rat race. The rat race as most are familiar with is battling through the morning traffic, trying to make it on time to work. Then try to get noticed for your contribution/effort, for more money/raise better resources/team or working on something more exciting. Then returning trying to skip through traffic like someone who is wearing their new shoes walking along a path which has been, how can I say nicely, pampered by a dogs left overs. Obviously often we step incorrectly and suffer the consequences thankfully they’re only a little delay and not messy.
Truth is whilst we are trying to make our way to and from work, what we are really doing is helping someone else live better. Maybe not from the fumes of our car but by the fuel we put into it.
Esso £5.5bn ($10.89bn May 2008)
Shell £13.9bn ($27.6bn Jan 2008)
That bn mark next to the money is called billion, have you any idea how many zeros that is ?
Its 9 yes nine zeros more. But everyone needs to eat don’t they? except the third world country and well we could use less food we don’t want to get a full stomach now do we.
I actually bought a smaller car, the pleasure of paying so much to go to and from work isn’t the best after taste for the wallet out there.
My morning travel can be up to an hour sometimes a little more. So like always I partly upgraded the sound in the car just so I can listen to funky beats whilst I look out to the beautiful landscape in the morning. I was asked to show the speakers last time, this time I took a pic before I closed the door up. I actually used the ones from the last car, I didn’t sell them with it.

Not a very sexy image but that’s how the inside of my car doors look like.
And the music I listen to you ask?
