The Beginning

It all starts somewhere doesnt it. And usually where it starts is the most important and most interesting part of the story. I wish i had put this blog together from the beginning as i could have probably remembered the details better and written better accounts of what happened but im not really a writer i dont think i can even spell properly, im a techo, programmer type guy at heart so what happens is i occasionally forget that im writing in english and i write everything as if its a variable name, with this in mind, if i have spelling mistakes or grammatical mistakes dont be surprised OK.

So let me begin by letting you know how it all began ! At the moment i have 2 jobs one that is interesting and one that is not, one that pays and one that doesnt. One of my jobs causes me (during multiple instances of the day) to considered whether i should prick a pin in my eye to take away the pain, yes really... I think the main reason why i dont prick a pin in my eye is because for one, the pain caused from the pin pricking act wont take away the pain and the reason being is that the pain of being where i am for 8 hours of the day is worse ! For example you may complain to a friend that your leg hurts from last weekends gym session, he may then slap you across the head really hard so that you forget about the pain in your leg cause now your head hurts, it works right, ?!? cause your rubbing your head. In this case however, pin pricking the eye just wont do the trick !

My second reason why pin pricking the eye wont work is i have minus 3 vision and progressivly getting worse which means im blind anyway so really there is no point pricking a pin in my eye as i would achieve nothing on both accounts !

So lets look at my first job (the boring one) ... i am currently working as a Project Manager at a pretty big airlines company deploying a new system. Yes, thats correct, im a techo working as a Project Manager, simply because this is where the quick money is. We have meetings where we talk absolute crap, where simple issues that should be sorted in minutes causes the biggest confusion and where ego's are so big that the owners of those ego's should be driving home in mac trucks so they can carry home those ego's without getting pulled over by the police for over packing a standard class C family car. Its funny to see and i guess you can approach this situation in multiple ways.

Option 1:
You can argue and fight every point you dont agree with and pull out your *stick* PM's love the word *stick*

Option 2:
You can totally not give a rats arse and let things fly as they do

Option 3:
You can attempt to pre-empt alot of the work and do alot of it so you dont have to do the activity crappy activity of following up on people who dont want to be followed up on or worse dont want to do any work

Option 4:
You can take a tazer into meetings and start tazering people who arnt listening and not delivering on time

Option 4 seems best and most practical as it would solve many problems but i guess not exactly legal so i usually go with option 3 cause its easier for me.

Even through this daily grind and paper pushing there is some consolidation. My body might be in the office for 8 hours of the day but in spirit and in mind i am in my garage, yes my garage .... which leads me to my second job. The more interesting one ... CEO of the garage ...
