I have found some sites that I call ”slit your wrists. Dot com”. One site LayOffDaily.com is http://www.layoffdaily.com/. I thought that large companies wouldn’t layoff on weekends… but hey this is the ’09 Recession, tax breaks don’t wonk recession, Thank you George Bush Recession, Wall Street was so irresponsible recession, Greed is Bad Recession, What were we thinking recession or the Uranus opposing Saturn Recession.
Another site is http://www.fuckedstartups.com/. Remember the site we all loved fcompany no more.
What kind of trash do you put in a $1500 trash can?
So I thought it would be interesting to watch Fox News. MSNBC and CNN were pretty much the same.
I wanted to hear the spin. Major difference Fox cut away to hear George Bush speak in Midland. I turned back and neither MSNBC nor CNN was covering Bush.
I took the day off to watch the coverage and I am really glad I did. There were times it was a little boring but for the most part it was a great thing to do.
I know I hadn’t written for a long time but I didn’t realize how long when I checked my blog and my last entry was in October. There is no excuse except sometimes you need a break. Okay maybe the break is over.
I was speaking with someone and she said I was pragmatic. I thought that was a great word for me. Being pragmatic is looking at oil crisis and purchasing a hybrid. Being pragmatic I was able to see my last company was having issues and was able to find a new job before they closed the office.
Pragmatic people can see a problem or an issue and they want to figure out how to fix it. Pragmatic people don’t understand people who believe in The Secret. Yeah believe in positive thinking but shit happens and I will be a little more prepared to handle it.
