Why is there a man with a megaphone on the street outside my window?

Dubai Internet City

I saw a job posting today for a position in Dubai Internet City that I am qualified for and the bizarreness of it (and tax-free income) had me intrigued for a minute.

Look what I found.

I was looking back a old posts to find an old picture I had taken and found this quiz that I made in September 2001. I needed to update one question for changes since then.

I'm going home

Peter Gibbons: I uh, I don't like my job, and, uh, I don't think I'm gonna go anymore.

Joanna: You're just not gonna go?

Peter Gibbons: Yeah.

Joanna: Won't you get fired?

Peter Gibbons: I don't know, but I really don't like it, and, uh, I'm not gonna go.

Survey Says...

So we had a little survey at work today... on paper. They've actually got someone flying around to all the locations and getting people to fill out survey forms. I won't bother going into how expensive and backwards that is, let me just sum it all up with a couple of excepts from my answers:

Bored Bored Bored

At the moment I am sitting in the terminal at the Kelowna airport and I am bored out of my mind. There is only so much surfing I can do on my Blackberry. I've read my friends list repeatedly. The only television is in the bar area but the barmaid is unbelievably shrill and won't shut up.

I seem to be the only male here under 60 not wearing a baseball cap or a hoodie. And that's not to say there aren't men over 60 wearing baseball caps, just that there happens to be two that aren't.
