Imagine this scenario - you are doing the work, which is normally done by 20 people or so. You do this in 10 hours of what should be an 8 to 9 hour shift, stumbling home by 1:00 am every night and collapsing in your bed. I did this for a little over 3 months or so. Now I can do the same in a new software with about 5 or 6 clicks of the mouse. This is because our company moved to a new software which is supposed to make our work easier; the verdict is still out on that since it's way too early. Also since the work I did, might almos have to be done by more established people in he company, and there is no way that they are going to want to spend the time, energy & frustration that I did, this new software comes into place. Companies as big as the one I work for normally squeeze you till you are dry, devoid of all feeling and leave you cynically scarred for life. By the time you finally earn yourself a post that can see you hold your head high when you walk the streets, you are too emotinally dead to enjoy it. You make lots more money, but rarely do you spend it on things that would make you happy. Then you do the same thing to the juniors that come under you, in some kind of vicious corporate cycle.



Juventus beat AC Milan in a tough match, a still not fully fit David Treseguet scoring the only goal. With this win, the Turin club have a 3 point lead over Milan and stir the championship race strongly towards themselves. Milan have the tougher last three games when compared to Juventus, which means that the "Old Lady" of Italian football are now firm favourites to win the Scudetto.





Song for the day - "Lying Awake" - OUR LADY PEACE
