Grrrrrr.

2007-01-13

Good morning Boys and Girls.

During the night a fairly bright light was cast along the horizon over the south-eastern ridge at the back of the property. It lasted all night and has just faded with the coming dawn.

At first I thought it was the side of a distant bank of clouds reflecting moonlight blocked by heavier clouds directly overhead, but that's probably a bad guess as it would have meant the clouds staying in the same position all night long. Unlikely. No idea what it was, but it was certainly pretty.

Slept fitfully, probably because yesterday wasn't a great day work-wise. Some materials needed for a job I'd planned on doing this morning weren't ready for me to pick up when promised and now won't be till sometime Monday. Annoying, since I'd rearranged my schedule just to pick the stuff up and didn't find out till I got there that it wasn't ready, meaning it was a double whammy; time wasted going there PLUS time lost in which I could have been doing other work. A call from the company ahead of time would have been appreciated. Felt like leaving them an invoice for my time.

I hate dealing with any company that doesn't have direct competition in the market they serve.

Like "Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely," in business, it's "Little competition creates surly companies, absolutely no competition means ridiculously high prices, lousy service and a "You don't like it? Piss off," attitude amongst company employees, especially those in "Customer Service.""

Not that I have an opinion.


Be good to everyone.
