What’s The Point Of Banging On About The Sun?

Ah at last Autumn is here. Not that it has been a bad summer I suppose, what with the Olympics and all, but I do think that on the whole I prefer the autumn. For one thing in Britain, we are actually more likely to see the sun in the Autumn. Not that I’m particularly bothered about seeing the sun in the first place. Don’t get me wrong, I certainly don’t mind a bit if sun, I just think that we bang on about it to much. Yes it’s all very nice when it’s shinning, as long as it doesn’t get stifling that is, in which case it’s a bloody arse ache. What I really dislike though is not the sun itself, but the way in which the British go on and on about how they are going to get some of it.

Internet- reducing discord in families

An individual posted a comment on my blog and told me that I was committing a big mistake by using the Internet as an outlet for the frustrations I faced when dealing with my family members. In an ideal world, I would talk to my family members and continue talking until they understand what I am saying. However, we do not live in an ideal world. If I were to force my opinion upon my family members, chances are high that they would stop appreciating me completely. In such a scenario, using the internet as an outlet for my frustration can actually help me improve my relation with my family members.

Complaints of a whiner

Envy, it’s not an uncommon emotion to have. I’m sure you’ve felt it at one point this month. Come on you’re not a saint. I’m honest enough to admit I feel it most days. It can overcome me through a variety of ways. I might be watching TV and see some talentless nonentity presenting a programme or being handed an undeserved award. What goes through my mind after relentlessly mocking them is imagining myself in the same position and knowing I could do an infinitely better job of it. I might be browsing a newspaper website’s opinion page and notice how poor some of the supposed ‘polemics’ are being argued. I make clear my strong opinions on the matter via the comments section underneath, albeit using a pseudonym.

What really gets my goat though is what takes place at my workplace. I’ve been in my job for nearly four years now and unfortunately I got in at the wrong time, just as the financial crisis hit. The person I was replacing had been on a certain salary, which I was fully qualified for, but my employers (for what I can only assume were budgetary reasons) altered the job title and cut £5,000 off the annual wage. I had hoped this was only a temporary measure but several years on and another staff member gone and I’m still in the same boat. There’s only six of us in our department but I’m on an hourly pay rate similar to the youngest staff member. My dentist continually asks how my molars are so worn away, I lie to him but the real reason is that they’re grinding and gnashing away as I look on in envy at some of my colleagues. On a wage that I should be on they go about their daily work in a manner I would sum up as SLACKING!!!

Lazy people who just arse around the office for more money then most of us, just really get my goat! What makes them so special?

My eye is always on them as they fail to pass on important details to customers, e.g. regulations we expect clients to abide by. Then there’s the way they put to personal use printer paper meant solely for customers, their ease when it comes to customer service, etc. I could go on and on. I know they’re aware of my low opinion of them, which explains their hesitant interaction with me…OK basically non-existent interaction with me. I don’t care, I’m patient. I’ll outlast the lot of them all and get a wage at this company that matches up to my skills and my opinion of myself, which is quite substantial I have to say.

The blame game

The inquiry into the phone-hacking scandal has been seen as a major event in British journalism. It has brought down the News of the World and some high-level scalps including Rebekah Brooks and now News International chairman James Murdoch. What gets me about the whole thing is that people are in any way surprised. British tabloid newspapers over the last decade have routinely quoted phone calls or answering machine messages, including those of the royal family. Unless you think either Charles or Camilla gave tapes to the press, the only possible answer is that they were obtained through hacking! Now everyone acts stunned when they hear that such practices are commonplace. It seems to me like waiting until your house is swarming with cockroaches before calling an insect control firm, rather than stopping the problem at the start.

Relationships take dedication and hard work

It can be a very difficult thing, to try and work out the best way of how to get your ex boyfriend back. It really does depend on the individual situation, and in particular, whether you finished it with him or visa versa, whether there was any cheating involved, and how things were left between you. One thing is for sure though, it is never a good idea to play games and mess around if you are serious about getting him back. I learnt this the hard way…

Instead of sitting about feeling sorry for yourself, whilst flipping through kitchen catalogues looking at toasters and microwaves, why not read on…. and brush up on your relationship skills.

The Pension Problem

Why is it that people do not want to listen to me explain about the state of the economy? It seems as if people are more concerned with what soaps are on the TV or what Kate Middleton has been wearing this week. Sooner or later people will wish that they had listened to me instead, and then they might be a little more educated in the ways of the world.

Why does nobody care

I have had a huge awakening in my life recently, and it seems like I see everything in a completely different way, but when I try and share my thoughts, feelings and concerns with people they are either totally disinterested or they think that I am a nuissance for being different from the rest of them.

I am talking about the huge disregard for all forms of life that goes on each day on this planet, by man.

I just care too much

Why people never listen, why they never meet your expectations and never keep their promise. I am really starting to lose it guys, I am telling you. Currently I am organizing an origami workshop for kids and for the past week I have been banging my head to come up with an original idea, which will keep all kids entertained and make them happy. Yes, you can say that I am pretty devoted to the cause, but there is one slight problem. It appears to me that no one else is. I cannot do everything myself and I actually depend on several people, people who definitely care less than me. Some of them are alright, but others are like… yeah whatever I cannot be bothered. And as I have a small budged, I have to sacrifice a lot. I do things in my spare time, I had to go to several shops and buy origami paper, paper wire, tin packaging, pencils, scissors and what not. I do things that have nothing to do with my current position in the company, and so on. I guess that the whole problem comes from the fact that I care too much. I simply want everything to be perfect so each and every youngster can remember this day with a smile. Anyhow, the worst thing is that some people are having a pretty hard time following orders and remembering things. I have to repeat the same thing many times until everyone gets what they have to do. Oh my, I just hope that everything ends well. I will write to you in one week time to let you know how it went.

My Stay At February Point Resort Estates

So I stayed at a lovely place recently while I was in the Bahamas, it was the February Point Resort Estates. This hotel is made up of villas in a gated, residential resort, located on the Great Exuma island. This Island has been named one of the top five islands to inhabit in the world. There are 20 villas situated among the private homes, which makes it feel homier.

These are two-story villas so they have plenty of room for you to relax after a long day on the beach or sight seeing. Each of these villas are painted in a pretty pastel color and have great views of Elizabeth Harbour. They have anywhere from two to six spacious bedrooms, along with a dining room and kitchen area and each villa is cleaned once a day by a maid.

When staying at the February Point Resort Estates, you have full access to the amenities provided by the gated community. These include a waterfront restaurant and a private community center. The community center has many facilities including a pool and several sports areas. It is also very safe here so you can wear your silver jewellery wherever you want.

The serenity of the Exumas, the friendly people and the most beautiful waters you will ever find make this a perfect place to visit and get away from all your worries. Once you have stayed there, you will want to keep returning over and over again – possibly even buying a home there when you retire.
