Another year, another Christmas

Tuesday, December 25th, 2007

It’s that time of year again, and for only the second time I’m spending it at home. I wonder how much of a hash I’ll make of the turkey…

I cannot overestimate how great it is to not have any work to do (or at least, not be expected to do any). Beer, turkey and DVDs sound good to me.

Idiot Telemarketer

Monday, December 3rd, 2007

I hope this is some bizarre viral campaign, but it probably isn’t. A guy at a “world leading” UK-based web marketing firm - so “world leading” I’ve never heard of them - loses his rag after making what I’m guessing is one too many unsuccessful telemarketing calls to the U.S. If this guy was working for me he’d be fired and out of the door before he could think”George W. Bush” let alone say it. What makes this worse is that this isn’t some impatient jobsworth, he claims to be the director of the company! Absolutely shocking.

Have a listen.
