Just WTF in general

So awesome. So true. Even kids know better. :)

Okay okay...it was probably written by her parents, but still, good points to remember and I still refuse to jump on every "fuck the system!" bandwagon that seems to be the fad these days. I'd rather go to work and pay my way in society, thanks. Furthermore, most of the blame for the economic issues should be placed on bad government policies, not greedy bankers. But it's so much easier to get mad at rich people! Lol fuck off. Here's another good one:

Quit blocking traffic and annoying the rest of us, all while wearing corporate clothing and blogging to the world on your phones and laptops...which are all possible thanks to the "system" and companies you hate so much.

To new beginnings...

Well, it's been a long, mostly fun ride working with WIND Mobile in Vancouver. From the network launch and helping staff various locations around the city, it's been an awesome experience. But alas, all good things must come to an end.

As of next week I begin a new challenge, with a new and equally exciting company. Can't divulge details just yet, but all you stalkers on my Facebook/Twitter probably already know about it. All I'll say is HOLY FUCK I CAN'T WAIT!

It's rare that a job gets me horny enough to post about it on my blog haha. Stay tuned.
