Insignificant moment of the Day
May 24^th, 2017 at 7:21pm

Today, I thought I should share that my insignificant moment of the day was...

Working away and have a customer pop her head in,
seeing that I wasn't 'important-looking' like the other Employees and before I could say just a pleasant 'customer friendly' "Hello" - she had already moved on (not at all interested in the 'product' that I was working on compared to the others. Yep - I knew my place in the team. Most come in and have a look, or have a quick chat - nearly all just nod or say "Hi" at least. I just kept working as usual.

AIMLESS EXTENTION OF KNOWLEDGE HOWEVER, WHICH IS WHAT I THINK YOU REALLY MEAN BY THE TERM 'CURIOSITY', IS MERELY INEFFICIENCY. I AM DESIGNED TO AVOID INEFFICIENCY.

They're still going which is strange. Global warming perhaps? I'm fairly close to the coast so that helps. I'd say I've got a month left. A bit longer for the cherries.

The frost will get them unless your to far north for that.
I nearly washed my car today, looked like there was going to be a shower though so I wisely called it off.

We are still getting 10 degrees c at night and the days are warm so they are hanging in there.

I got squirted in the eye by ones acid piss one time. Nearly blinded me. We burn them with one of those long stove lighters. It's great fun. It's one of my favourite pastimes.
