This made my day ;)

Where to from here??!!!

This day is looking brighter by the moment.

I'm helpless to help my friends who have been fired from their jobs as a result of the recession.

I have no data whatsoever for this freaking direct cashflow, indirect I can handle, but direct means I have to dig deep, which - unfortunately - means I have to sit with the accountants so they'll give me their data.

I have no clue when I'm leaving work, which really pisses me off, it's like being tied up on a leash to the boss.

I'm tired of being cornered wherever I look.

Last but not least, I don't feel like working or going home. 

Piss me off

Nothing like an early morning coffee, with a nice smoke to entice the mind to wander off for a bit, today I was surfing through some blogs when I decided to write about stuff that pisses me off.

1. Meddling in people's affairs.

2. Passing judgement on people, when you obviously display the same symptoms of what you discriminate.

3. Total disregard of manners when it comes to conflicting views, it displays ill-breading, as well as an incurable childish nature.

4. How people believe they own you cause they employ you.

5. Focusing on details at the expense of the overall picture.

6. Trying to please everyone, I've paid too much of my mental stability trying to please everyone wherever I go, I simply can't carry on anymore, eventually I'll die out on everyone.

7. Selfishness, in whatever form gets to me, I simply can't understand how you can have peace of mind at someone else's expense.

I must admit of being guilty of some of the above, but I'm working on it.

The Swindler

By definition, the swindler is the one who screws you up while you're happy about it.

Unfortunately, that's part of my job, swindling people, my job, however, does not include the stealing part of a swindler's job.

Basically, what I do is try to keep everyone happy and convinced that they got away with what they wanted, when in fact, they got away with what I wanted them to get away with.

It doesn't really matter what they want, what really matters is does what they want fit within the whole context of what the business needs??

So, I convince them that they don't really need what they wanted, what they need is to fall within the overall context, someone's gotta lose at the end, it won't be me.

So, here I am, caught between 3 parties, with 3 different agendae:

A. Business Owner. (Max return on investment)

B. Top Management. (Play it Safe)

C. Individual Directors. (Smaller target with a higher Budget)

With poor little old me trying to please them all, no way, except, The Swindler.

Otherwise, they get someone else to do it for them and I'm on the streets.

Any0ne have anything to add??

This is too much

How come business owners believe they own their employees??!!!!

I mean, take today for example, "Shamel, we're changing some figures in the budget, so we'll be staying late"

I go, alter all my plans to be somewhere else tonight, cancel previous engagements.

Then at 8:30 P.M. "Shamel, let's make it tomorrow"

This is too much, how fucked up is hanging people on a wire, screwing up their day, just in case?!!!!

Jeeezzzz, it feels like I was bought in a slave market, next they'll ask me to cook or dance for them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Till Death Do Us Part

Today something special took place I finally got over my commitment phobia and decided I am ready to be in a serious relationship and hence came the decision to get engaged to the one and only my best friend and wife to be Sarah Yehia AKA Sou

To the utter surprise of both our families we tied the knot today in a family ceremony.

Wishing everyone our kind of happiness.

Take Care and wedding gifts are accepted from now on forward or Cash denotations are better.
