Push back at the machines, they don't mind. Never Mind the Outsourcing…. So with all the globalising efforts going on thesedays, we sometimes encounter people from other countries who are here in our workplace. They have come to our land, to learn our skills, and take them (and the work they embody) back to the foreign shores where they can be performed for a fraction of the price. I was speaking with one of the guys the other day, and telling him about the Oxfam Trailwalker event. Date : March 2, 2009.

So a guy calls Student Job Search, wanting someone to sort out why his server is running slow, for $20 per hour. I see the advert; and it’s either take some work on, or study for Friday’s test.

Push back at the machines, they don't mind. Nice shot along Takapuna Beach at Sunrise the other day…. 8230;and looking at it got me thinking…. Why are photographs rectangular? The scene I saw was not rectangular. And similarly why are books mostly rectangular or square? These formats seem to have been constrained by the limitations of flat paper, but if they had not been, what shape would these objects be? Comments : Leave a Comment. What’s on my bookcase now….

Push back at the machines, they don't mind. The Starters and The Finishers! Our Trailwalker team had the name “The Stationers.” More of a “Working Title” as anything, but it definitely worked for us. Here we are as the starters…. And here we are as the finishers…. If you look closely at the second shot, you may notice Trish, Veronica and Kevin managing to force smiles at the finish line. I managed to force “upright.”. Thanks too, to everyone who sponsored us. Laquo; Never Mind the Outsourcing…. You are c...

Push back at the machines, they don't mind. You may have seen this do the rounds a while back, under the subject “The Humna Brian.”. The cleverly-named hot water urn. So that explains why, despite its friendly name, I could never quite bring myself to drink out of one of these things…. Laquo; Reconfigure the Laws of Nature…. What’s on my bookcase now….

Push back at the machines, they don't mind. Let them keep on walking…. At the risk of sounding like a broken record, I’ve been walking a bit lately…. We’ve been training as a team for the Oxfam Trailwalker. Event, and the highlights have included:. Walking eight hours around the North Shore coast from Devonport to Castor Bay. Doing the 16-Kilometre Coast-to-Coast. Walk from Auckland Central to Mangere twice in eight hours or so. Comments : Leave a Comment. Overheard at the Gym…. Comments : Leave a Comment.

Push back at the machines, they don't mind. Reconfigure the Laws of Nature…. So this came up a while back, and I thought I’d post it since I found the idea quite amusing…. There’s a “ Will it Blend. 8221; clip on youtube for the new iPhone, which prompted my brother-in-law (an avid fisherman) to ask the question “Does it float? 8221; What use was any gadget if when dropped from a boat it just disappeared beyond retrieval? Kirstin said “The new Tamagotchi’s float.”. Laquo; The Starters and The Finishers!
