Merge deficient

Have you every found people who are merge deficient, you know those people on the highway that simply dont understand the you go I go mentally and have to squeeze in until the last possible millisecond as you both play chicken. He knows it is not his turn yet is focused on saving the one car length and the 4 seconds it would add to his trip if he was behind you. Life is like that sometimes as we try to squeeze everything into one day or one weekend, this may be contrary to what people believe but it is ok to let other things in and in some cases pass us by.

This is the word of biker boy "praise be to the bike"

MULTISLACKING

The term used when a co-worker is able to delay, procrastinate, goof off or mess up numerous tasks. Do you have one of these people perhaps sitting nect to you? or are you one of them. Me i take about 15 mintues each day to contemplate why in the world some people are able to draw a salary when ideally some people should be drawing two. Oh, well such is life, I should have been a doctor, or lawyer when the me first of billable hours all comes back. So there you go, stop surfing the next and dig yourself into that mutli tabbed excel spread sheet.

Brakelights ahead

So as I roll down the highways of northern california I cant help but think of that unnerving phrase brakelights ahead. My impending arrival now delayed by the bending infrastructure of our area. Sure we have nice weather, the mountains, the ocean, but lets face it we have a poor excuse for a mass transit system, and highways that seem functional yet are clogged with the hair of everyday communting. Each day the sounds of burning rubber and bending steel wake me from my comatose journey to the office. In my Tommy like state "feel me" "touch me" I sit behind 2 tons of steel and one quarter inch of glass manuevering my way to boxing match that has become the office. Look out your window people, wave to me as I glance your way....

Knuckleheads

I want to rant and rave about knuckleheads, those people who fail to comprehend what is up in the world. For example Drive thru windows are for quick purchases maybe 2 cups a coffee or a burger and fries, not for you to pull up and order a meal for 5 kids that takes 10-15 minutes to prepare. Nor is it a viable alternative for you to order 6 frappacinos from starbucks that have to be made one at a time. Have some compassion for the time sensitive commuter who is in a rush or someone who just worked his ass off and wants to get home. Do me a favor please if you are ordering for more than 2 people get you butt off the seat and go inside will you please.

So it goes today....May 7
