Morning Muchachos, from a sunny and temperate London. 2 more calls, 10 more emails, and I'm on my way to Cornwall. We will arrive late tonight, got a couple of calls tomorrow, and then off for a week.
.you know, groups that don't allow politics in them.
FB is weird and the US is so polarised at the moment, politics infiltrates everything. The amount of people I've snoozed over the last few months is amazing.
Better to be busy than the alternative.
Sort of. There's a fine line between being busy and at the centre of things, until you ask what the other 5 people are doing in the department apart from doing their hours and hittin' the showers.
but they literally throw rolls to you.
If you had kept up with the Keto, would they throw packets of butter at ya? I think in these times this could be accommodated. What about Gluten free people? Do they do a GF tossing option?
The public needs to know.
Double camel toe is never a good look.
Will be pilfering that particular analogy.
Just more of my random nonsense mate, so pilfer away. I think we all know there's plenty of nonsense in my head to go around.
What?! There's a Camel Toe Day?!
If thats what we are calling Birthday and Anniversaries, then sure....
The only real difference between now and then is that folks now say out loud (and with pride) things they used to say with but a wink and a nod (or when they were pretty sure the "group" or "club" they were hanging with at the time was in agreement).
Very much this. Over here it's like we've gone back to the 70s. I don't think it ever really changed. It just became less socially acceptable during the 90s. This however, has receded.
Doesn't matter if they screw over thousands of people, if they make their balance sheet look better, they get more. I've said for years...aside from a 2020 happening, when people are laid off, it's due to mis-management. Some can ask well what about when the industry goes away/dies. Sure that has an impact, but there are many examples where companies (good managers) modified their business model to adapt. The managers that don't care about their people just ride the gravy train until the end of the line and many have their golden parachute as well as take over another company.
I think your right mate, there is a ton of mis management and short sightedness, but I also think that there has been a race to the bottom on price, and therefore the only way to survive is to cut cost. As Westerners (in a global sense) we have been part of this with the rise of
Amazon and China from a manufacturing sense, who pay no tax or benefit from various nefarious schemes and have buying power or supply chains that others cannot get near, so those guys fall away, as on-one wants to pay more than they have to. And in some, the market just disappears. Would Apple have let Blockbuster into the Digital market, as iTunes and Video basically destroyed the Physical market, so there was literally no demand for the product. You could say they could have evolved or developed (maybe like Kodak should have) but the new markets are often driven by proprietary devices to disrupt. The only ones who have a chance is those that own content, like the Disney model. Maybe.
Well that got a bit hefty, who thinks Jasmine is pretty?
Have a great afternoon chaps.

They throw gluten-free rolls at you, obviously. 4 people have been hospitalized as a result.
