“I gotta roll, can't stand still
Got a flamin' heart, can't get my fill
Eyes that shine, burning red
Dreams of you all through my head.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah....”
Mannnn.
Busybusybusy.
I’ve been flat out at work.
Oh.
Don’t be silly.
I didn’t actually mean working.
No.
Hahahahaaaaa.
I meant designing beer labels for my latest brew:

Now when people come over for dinner I can tell them to get a big black dog in them.

Designing beer labels. That’d be a pretty cool job. But not as cool as beer-tasting. Or just staying home and drinking beer.
Heh. A master-taster.
Nevermind.
At one of my many past-life jobs I was in publishing management for a large magazine company.
We all had to wear identity tags on site, with your name and department. Mine got abbreviated. It said: Pub Man.
How freaking cool was that?
Oh, and the office population was 99%, Hot Babes; 1%, D-Man.
Why did I leave again?
Oh yeah.
Deportation.
I kept calling football “soccer”.
Fucking geezers.
HOW TO RECRUIT THE RIGHT PERSON FOR THE JOB?
Put about 100 bricks in some particular order in a closed room with an open window
Then send 2 or 3 candidates in the room and close the door
Leave them alone and come back after 6 hours and then analyze the situation
- If they are counting the bricks put them in the accounts department
- If they are recounting them put them in auditing
- If they have messed up the whole place with the bricks put them in engineering
- If they are arranging the bricks in some strange order put them in planning
- If they are throwing the bricks at each other put them in operations
- If they are sleeping put them in reception
- If they have broken the bricks into pieces put them in information technology
- If they are sitting idle put them in human resources
- If they say they have tried different combinations, yet not a brick has been moved, put them in sales
- If they have already left for the day put them in marketing
- If they are staring out of the window put them on strategic planning
And then last but not least -
If they are talking to each other and not a single brick has been moved, congratulate them and put them in top management .
Guess which field I’m technically in now?
Although, to be honest, over a six hour period I’d have done most of the above.
With the addition, perhaps, of jumping out the window…
