Best. Expression. Ever.
Better...
Been a bit busy, past few days.
Recent first-time employee changed to first-time job switch.
Working at a bank now. I'm a "banker", so to speak.
Slightly disappointed that I did not have a sudden explosion of knowledge(=power) turning me into a master of the any/all universe the instant I joined.
Hmph...
Rant..
I'm not usually one to rant about stuff. Really. If something bothers me, and I can avoid it, that's what I usually do. They have their own point of view, and if its not similar to mine or even something strikingly dissimilar, I don't believe in imposing my views. Unless you get in my face, of course.
Not this time. I have had enough. Enough of what, you ask? Enough of this.
The new Wrigley's Doublemint AD.
I am not even linking it to youtube. Don't look it up. You'll thank me later.
I didn't think the DOCOMO Irritant singing-in-the-"Friendship Express" makes-me-tear-the-hair-out-of-head AD could be so easily and so quickly topped off my irritant no. 1 spot. But now I feel grateful that it was only preparing me for this. The first time I saw this ad and heard it (the significance of both happening together is indeed significant), was the first time I almost choked on my own vomit. Yes, it is that bad.
I think I'd prefer being choked to death while my feet are being kept in burning oil, someone is kicking me in the nuts with spiked boots and some-other-one is taking a hammer to my teeth, to watching that ad again.
Just so that you can be saved, let me repeat. It is THAT bad.
Despair...
B was down, almost out.
"They're all corrupt, bleeding the company. I have only you to talk to.", he moaned over the STD line.
Next week, he called again. A Stranger picked the corporate number.
"Where's A?"
"He resigned."
"Did he leave a number?"
"No"
He disconnected. And wept. For a friend who never was.
