I think people should take responsibility for the leaders they vote into power to act on their behalf. After all a demoncratically elected gov. is 'for the people, by the people and of the people.'

Have changed the template. And it's just not going to work I know. But I'll fix it another day.
Right now I have to write a Stern Letter to employee who took money for petrol without asking.

1. Stupid people who say "at least CNNBBCSKYFOX[tripe] is 97% true"
What the fuck is that supposed to mean? That it is 3% lie. And the fact that they don't know which bit of nonsense is the 3% doesn't seem to bother them. Yes, these people exist. They sit in their living room and watch the one-sided tripe on television.

It's true, what I believed all along. Women make better managers and the world would be a better place if women were in charge.

Demonocracy
I think people should take responsibility for the leaders they vote into power to act on their behalf. After all a demoncratically elected gov. is 'for the people, by the people and of the people.' If it is put into power by the people, and is made up of the people, and is acting on behalf of the people, that makes the people responsible.

My God. Some ponce actually changed his name to Optimus Prime. And now he's off to Iraack. I don't know what the Iraackys will do when they find out but the thought of a berk like this with a weapon scares the shit out of me!

Am back. After finishing the business&budget plan. No body reads it anyway. But they look at the pictures, so I put loads of graphs in for the dumb politicians to look at. A bit worried that I didn't apply for enough grant. But it was a rushed job, what could I do. First I was told I had 2-3 weeks to write the thing, then they tell me hand it in tomorrow.

Shock, Awe and Shame
Can't stand any more CNNBBCSKYFOX tripe. Read this instead.
...there are other words that spring to mind watching this gruesome exercise of firepower live on television: shame, pity and helplessness.
Shame at the way in which the world has failed the innocent Iraqis who are being blown apart. Pity for the children who must tremble when the sunlight fades and Seldomhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15958144346049052018noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5055479.post-909128502003-03-18T11:08:00.000+02:002003-03-18T11:35:22.000+02:0018.03.03
"Why I had to leave the Cabinet"
This is what Robin Cook had to say for himself in todays' Guardian.
Iraq's military strength is now less than half its size at the time of the last Gulf war. Ironically, it is only because Iraq's military forces are so weak that we can even contemplate invasion. And some claim his forces are so weak, so demoralised and so badly equipped that the war Seldomhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15958144346049052018noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5055479.post-908544022003-03-17T16:17:00.000+02:002003-03-18T11:01:51.000+02:0018.03.03

I never thought I would be using such language on my blog. But I guess there is a lot of venom to be released. I have surprised my self.

Got to write poxy arsed Business and budget plan. Lost the stats page that the psychosubordinates handed in to me.

Book Keeping
Had to come up with a new trial balance for work. Been working on it since last year. Nearly had it completed.
Big assed middle boss (BAMB) had one of his genius moments. Phoned up the bookkeeper and told her to put the tea bags in the inventory. So if we bought a box of 100 teabags, then they should go into the inventory as 100 teas.

I religeously watch all the news channels I have. Read all the foreign online news papers I know about, read blogs by others. Keep abreast of the news that is bothering me. I want to know every detail, gossip, hint, turning tide, etc.
This is after about a month of absence from the news. I figured what's the point in knowing when you can't do anything about it. It was just too upsetting.

Why do these people give other people space to put blogs on the net?
What do they get out of it?
Isn't that a bit creepy.
Psycho-subordinate
You may have heard of the pointy haired boss. I would like to introduce you to the psycho-subordinate. This d*ck thinks that he cannot be fired for some strange reason that is lurking in his demented mind. (And its always a man).

Hello world......
So, this is a Blog.

Finally, something interesting to do at work.
It's 9:22 am, and it looks like it's going to be a hot day. (I'm in the middle of summer, guess where I live).
Let me post this now and see what it looks like.
