Corporate Labotomy

Posted by David On May - 28 - 2005

What has become of this website? It’s a shadow of it’s former self, now lying in tatters of former glory. The main thing that I have neglected is not the html code, but you, dear reader. Oh I am sorry, but Dave has been a lazy ass bum and there is simply no excuse. It is just my way.

To give a full update, basically the status of things right now is this. I am working for Telstra, the main phone carrier in Australia. I am doing this not because I love telecommunications or because I have joined white collar suburbia. I have no inklings in either respect. No, I just need those Benjamins, or as we say in Australia, them plastic things.

My motivation has been down ever since I don’t know when. For a while there I was going through all these ideas and getting things done. Now I’m working and answering phones and all my creativity has been sapped. Corporate culture is something I really just can’t take. It’s not like it comes out. I CAN easily blend in and excel in that environment. I have so far. It’s just that the complete absence of personal initiative and creative flair which labotomizes me. I gotta get out to left field and play there.

Really, I do live in a beautiful country. It’s nice to be able to drive for five minutes and sit on the edge of a cliff looking out over the sea. It’s nice to have beautiful sights and glorious pink and blue sunsets to look at. It may have been my early starts, getting out of bed at 6am to really make me realize it, but boy somehow I’m just amazed at how fresh this place looks.
