The reality is, i might actually be totally unemployable... what can i say, I'm a "glass half empty" kind of guy. It's odd because every job i have ever done people loved me in it. I taught high school Chemistry and Physics at a private school and they asked me to stay on over more qualified applicants because apparently my class was excellent. At the post office I actually got some people phone in and do the opposite of complain about my service. Tree planting and landscape jobs always wanted me back calling me "top shelf all the way". I have an Honours degree from a University and my wife, a world class researcher, picked me to stay home and mind her children. I was once voted Strata Council President ! As a musician i was always welcome back to establishments or events that i had played before...
Sure sure, this is me pumping my tires... usually i like to deflate my tires and then steal my rims which of course is the point of this exercise. Looking pro is not my bag... I find myself thinking "are you fucking kidding me! You really want me to write a resume for that shitty job... you don't think i could do that... i could do that and care for a few infants, prepare for a dinner party and write a song about how stupid your dumb job is".
My problem is probably that i am an expert cheater and swindler... it's not my style anymore, but there was a time in my life where i cheated and swindled my way into pretty much anything. In the end it created a religiously philosophical attitude where i learned you get what you give out of life, so i changed my ways. Since then life has been very good for me, I do what i do, cover my end of the bargains and then a bit extra to keep the karma flowing and all is good. I guess it's about the resume, it's just horse shit... years ago when i needed to find a job i just hired a guy to write the resume and boom i got into the interview... it was as easy as using old exams to study for University exams... just know the answers, who gives a fuck if you know or can do anything. Comes down to my main beef with society... far too many incompetent chuckelheads in positions of employment just gobbling away pecking at their seed and the ball is moved down the field.
It's the B.S. courtship game I'm not too crazy about... hey i just had an idea! I should just contact these bastards and say why don't i come and work for you for a little bit for free, and if your job doesn't irritate the shit out of me and you think i can do it in a competent manner, then lets do this. You see the problem is that i find engaging in phony behaviour hard on the soul, and of course the other problem is that i really have no skills... I can take care of kids, but I'd rather be harpooned than take care of some fools whiny brat... the parent would come and pick up the kid with a list of special treatment items they think their kid deserves, and i would have to tell them that their shitty parenting has created this ass hole child and so now their first order of business is to park their stupid ego and do what's right... I'll just pass.
I guess the thing is to stay away from classified job adds: You read them and you just want to give up automatically. I think about the world today... I just went on leave from a job, cancelled my phone, my gas and my hydro and in every one of these situations there was a major fuck up where somebody or some system was in place to over bill and then under bill and then refund, and then pay and then want money back, and I'm thinking all these people have jobs and nothing works, but maybe at one time their resumes danced to the right tune and they sounded competent. How can everything be fucked but yet resumes are shining somewhere? You can take a course on how to write a resume, but i haven't seen a course on how to be a good employee. Catch my drift?
I can't program a computer, i don't see that ever happening. but i have done things with computers that made people say "wow you are really good at computers, you should teach people" which made me think that "wow you really have no idea what you are talking about". I mean i could talk shit and pretend i know but for sure sooner or later i will be shown as the fool i am. I'm kind of at the stage in my life where I'm not interested in bullshitting... it's just kind of a life value. That's why i think the idea job for me would be a farmer... work real hard and use what you have, when and where you have and be judged on your product... except of course society is set up to punish farmers and favour corporate farms. Perhaps i mentioned before i was a useless salesman... somewhere in this blogoshpere there is probably a few stories about how i worked as a stereo salesman, and it turned out badly.
The problem is I'm not skilled enough to work on the high end of the corporate ladder and many people i know are... they are paid quite well and so insanity is part of the gig.. I would then be on the bottom end of the pay scale where suffering the lunacy is not as ideal. Insufferable perhaps... I think i want to be a farmer... maybe i can propagate blueberries and sell them to somebody who gives a damn.

one of the flaws of politics
OK so in Canada, the party that is the official opposition just chose a new leader due to a very unfortunate occurrence, but hey, that's what happens. It happens to be the left wing leaning party and the guy who won is a more central character... whatever the hell that means. You see these politicians have this ability to claim beliefs but then when in power their beliefs often wane in the face of corporate dollars... for some reason.
So the party that is in charge of the country, is actually a coalition of the two former right wing parties who were called the Conservatives and the Reform party... you see , what they figured out was that they couldn't win if they were splitting the vote all the time so they joined into a coalition and became one party. Then they won government and somehow manage to paint the idea that forming a coalition is an evil and savage game plan that will throw the country into sure peril, and a dangerous thing for democracy. Of course the idiot central and left wing party buy into this line of malarkey and spend all campaigns trying to reiterate that no, they will not in fact form a coalition in an effort to beat a coalition in the grand game of politics... only in humanity would things get so strange.
So the new guy from the left wing party gets elected and his first statement is that they will not form a coalition with the other party. I mean, fuck me up the ass with a rake backwards if that sounds like a good opening line. Let me open by giving my savage and wily political opponent some ammunition... perhaps there will be a new commercial out tomorrow with me beaking off on that clip, cause you have to know they will. Why not just take a moment to remind Canadians that the party in power is in fact a coalition and then just let that drift out there? Isn't the idea of a political party a group of people set to win an election? Remember the goal is to win the election, and once you get in you just serve your circle on the spoils, right?
You see it's important to win the election and when your first statement is the same statement that has been used to harpoon the last few opponents, you think you might learn. Why make that statement? Are you trying to say you are a politician of principle?
There was a guy who ran a few years ago and his platform was to get away from fossil fuel use and turn Canada into a leader in "green" technology... the idea being that eventually the world will have to turn that direction so Canada should be a leader at that time. From my perspective it was easily the most sane position i have ever heard a politician speak, and as so he was beaten like a rented mule... fell prey to "weak leader" ads and coalition fear mongering.
Is not is.
That statement makes more sense than the idea that political parties are set to serve Canadian taxpayer interests. To be honest i don't know much about this guy, who will now lead the opposition, but if his first statement is the same statement that has cost election losses to a coalition government, that forgot it was a coalition, but managed two times in a row to defeat the other parties by demonizing the concept of a coalition, because they know that if the other parties form a coalition as they did then they are surely doomed.
Kind of like playing chess and getting beaten by the same 7 step move to checkmate time and time again... How do you get that job? You get elected to lead and your first statement is a weak pass up the middle of the ice to a potent offensive player... a la Schneps to Mike Bossy in game one of the Stanley Cup final, overtime 1982.

It's kind of odd
When i start an old blogaroo, i don't know what the hell I'm going to chicken peck about... i think most people would have a plan. I'm OK with not having as plan... we need fluid boundaries, like a good jam that just finds a pocket nobody was expecting and stays there and explores the options. Either that or flips like a large mouthed bass in a canoe a few minutes after thinking "yea I'm eating that frog".
OK
So I was going up Mt. Tabor and i ran into a few neighbours... multiple sets and the word on the street was that it was cold up there and i was under dressed. I scoffed off that nonsense pointing out i had a sweater and a Scarb jacket... not to mention a Man orange long sleeve shirt... but you know the Americans always trying to be helpful, concerned i might get up there and change my tune. It kind of got to the point where i had to say "listen here, I'm Canadian and your sissy Yankee Chinook can't chill me"... things grew serious. I then pointed out that i have 4 inch sideburns, perhaps rather obvious, and that those sideburns would direct the wind like an experienced air traffic controller might guide a jumbo 757 to its approved path... more confusion... my point about my handle bar moustache hovering like a couple of imperial guards protecting my neck region never even really got made before i had to let them know this was my attempt at humour, or humor for that matter. Then we were Yucking it up... the old me would have parted and had that interaction coat our future relationship like a bad fungus.
In the end there was no cold... I'm from the old school, if it's cold walk faster, if it's still cold start air drumming... still cold air drum metal circus beats... still cold do it with leg kicks. In a consumer society we rely on gadgets too often... gadgets allow flawed minds to create excuses to fail to see what is right. Yes... this gadget will solve your problem... i didn't know i had one...
Then again i don't have a cell phone. 1) too cheap, 2) can't really work the damn things, 3) always break down when i need them, 4) don't want to be contacted when I'm on a mission.
My problem with the cell phone culture is the fact that people now have an excuse to be flaky on plans. I'll be there in Wednesday @ 7:20PM... well man give me your cell number and I'll call you at around 7 and see where I'm at... me I'm like, well I'll be there... I don't need to check in @ 7 because at that time i will be in transit, and to pay a company to dose myself with radiation to give somebody an out seems insane. If you can't make it, don't be there, i don't need to be on a phone hearing an excuse that is going to enrage me. I do see that i am one of "those" people that will never really be understood on issues like this.
Example: I don't watch T.V. , well i did watch "Hockey Night in Canada" until it stopped broadcasting an analogue signal... you can stream it now, provided you live in Canada. Not watching TV was a conscious decision... My wife felt the same way... one of our core values. This has been going on for over a decade, close to two actually, but yet every time I phone home, some family member asks me if i have seen a certain show, to which i reply "I don't watch TV", to which they reply "oh well you should because this show is really good"... maybe it is, but the point is i have consciously decided to live free of television programming, which is the key problem for me, and the docile sloth mentality of the average TV consumer. But it's like every fucking time somebody telling me what show i am missing... it's like it never registered in the first place and we just go back and have the same conversation over and over again... me calling watching TV bullshit, and them urging me to get with the program... I don't go over to vegetarians houses and cook up pans of bacon and say things like "you should try this it's really good", even though i do believe bacon is really good... i mean i know it's a shit food... bad fat, ridiculous sodium content... but i like the taste. Actually i did go to a vegetarian party one time and cook up a pile of sausages, but it was really funny, and i only did it once.
It's a human problem, when you don't do something that everybody does you become a weirdo, but the truth is i have probably replaced time wasting hours on television with time wasting hours on this blasted Internet... what do i think? I think if you have a purpose the Internet is great, if your are looking for purpose the Internet is a black hole. i have been both persons on many a nights, hear my hit song "internetting on chatroulette" by SR Jones for comedy if you want... it is what it is. The waitress at the bar down the street doesn't like that saying, neither did one of my former band mates. To me "it is what it is" means you are still in the process of observing. I find too often people try to define things before they know what the hell they are talking about, but perhaps they are just trying to shot those watching that they have things under control. We like control for some reason, perhaps it's ownership of the situation we strive for.
just another fork in the road, bed time in the city of fallen heroes

I watch running with the bulls...
I watch it because i think it's funny to see people gored because they wanted to prove that they were invincible. Dad and i would always watch the news highlights of the running with the bulls... just the vision of my father laughing and tears running down his cheeks made me note when it would happen so we could catch it on the news... and then of course catch it again on the late news.
I guess it's easy now, you just type in a search and voila you are lead to some bull running sales sites, a bunch of garbage sites, but if you know your way around the Internet you can view some good gores. Hey if you get in the ring and challenge a bull i have the right to laugh at you should you take a sever goring. Would i do it? I would say no, but then i could see my natural insanity moving me to a moment in time, a critical error, a hijacked line of judgement, a misinterpretation of manhood, or just a plain mental mistake throwing me in there should i be in the right spot at the right time. A couple bottles of wine with the wrong fellows in the wrong town, with the wrong conversations i could see myself getting all "shocked up" and leading the charge. I think if i got in there i would just go like hell from the get go to get to the finish line, but who knows i might think my wits and my reflexes are invincible, leading to some comedy for some sedentary slob to chuckle and cluck at looking at as computer screen.
Never been a big fan of puncture wounds on my own body, not to mention with non sterile compact animal keratin. But who knows in this world you could probably sell it... homeopathic organic keratin stimulation therapy... for only 80$ a session SR Jones is willing to clear you mind and body with this revolutionary keratin therapy. The α-helix and β-sheet motifs of the Keratin therapy provide basal stimulation to the pituitary and other essential organs, releasing adrenal hormones common to shock and regeneration.
With a simple regimented 40 session therapy you will find life a simple joy when it's all over... nursing your wounds from the comfort of a Robertson 6000 patented hospital home bed with rotating bed pan. Order now and get a free conservaphone... your only trusted line to vote. The conservaphone, attached to the Robertson 6000 patented hospital home bed allows you to enter your voting preference, and then it will direct you to when and where you should vote... a vital tool for any great countries blossoming democracy.
Am I off topic again? It's hard to know these days, what is right and what is wrong... well it's easy to know if you think, but that's not really a common human trait, makes you look like a weirdo, or a paranoid, as some like to put it. You go through school to learn how to learn but then when you start learning the truth you are dismissed as irrelevant, and then you notice that the education system is being consciously disassembled... why would that be? It's best if you have a short memory, or even better if you failed to digest it in the first place. Then you can just repeat your slogans and look the next hour of life in the face and survive it thinking you did OK.
People don't like to think they didn't do OK... it's like driving, nobody likes to admit they are a shitty driver, but yet clearly the road is full of them. I saw a story in the news about some school teaching failure, and the comments were all totally negative, as comments are... but i think that's a real good idea. I wrote a song called "i am a failure", released also as "failure" , that caused some controversy in certain circles of my life, but my point was exactly this. If i do something and fail to excel in the most important aspect (that being ,of course commerce, when thinking in modern human terms) then i have failed. The point is i still had fun, learned a lot, and did something working with people (band mates), to finish something... but i failed cause i didn't lay the golden goose, or it hasn't hatched yet.. but you need a good PR campaign for a hatching these days. None the less it is failure, and should be recognized as that, and celebrated.. The story goes that "Thomas Edison failed more than 1000 times when trying to create the light bulb... we are so fickle.
anyhoo, I'm looking for a job, and anybody who needs organic keratin stimulation therapy, i would be more than happy to gore into your schedule.

Not worth reading...
The amount of correspondence I have had with work, benefits and medical forms lately are absolutely mind-boggling. For the record there is nothing really wrong with me... besides the obvious... that being I do what I do because I think it is a good idea based on multiple factors having to do with my state of mind and what it is I want to learn. If I were a natural consumer, I would have an easier go of it... riding the highs of new products and buffered with the comfort of minimum credit card payments. Where was I... oh yes my point was to do with the insane bureaucracy of a few simple claims, THAT ARE LEGITIMATE IN THEIR ENTIRETY. It is my belief that we have spent far more man-hours on this issue than would justify in the claim in the first place. It's just an old-fashioned chess match now with the opposition believing “well perhaps we can just stall this into eternity by requesting other more irrelevant information, one letter at a time”, and the home team now believing "Fuck you! You are paying cause that's the deal". It's true that an incompetent supervisor who can't punch 4 digits into a computer correctly may have opened the window for denial, but right is right and wrong is wrong, probably why they hire supervisors who are dumb as a post. Somewhere in this shithole I have a plaque for perfect attendance, which apparently recognizes my ability to put my work ahead of other things... there were many a nights when I stayed a few pitcher of beers too late at the SRSS, but who the fuck was at work the next morning @ 6:30 taking care of business so the company wouldn't lose... it was the guy with hundreds of hours of sick time. For the record I don't think anybody should ever call in sick if they "do it to themselves", you should call in sick when you are sick so you don't go breathing on your goddamn co-workers fucking up their rhythm. It's no wonder people go mad, you hold up your end of the bargain, and then when it is your turn to be re-inbursed, new rules are added, quaint phrases are recited, lines blur, and your resolve is tested.
I can almost see it in the board room "OK boys, just go out and fuck everybody and we figure 40% won't even push back... and that's pure profit right there". Sure it's well known, but it's also mentally taxing, and it really fucks with one's ability to achieve completion, as well as having any faith in the system we live in.
I was reading in the news that we are just too damn stupid, as people, for democracy to work. This is something I have been telling anybody who will listen, and others who won't for years... When you have an analyst on television breaking down an election and they say things like "well so and so just talked too intelligently, which alienated the voters who felt more comfortable voting for somebody who talked like they did"... at the level of a grade 4 student, you have to wonder. If you were in a spaceship going to the moon and the guy driving the thing said a bunch of things that seemed intelligent and knowledgeable, you wouldn't say... hey wait a minute can we get that slang talking son of a bitch in her to drive this puppy. No you wouldn't, you would take comfort in the fact that the person with your life in their hands has a solid grasp on the issues that could spell an end.
I mean as a society we still argue over whether humans are in fact impacting the planet in a way that will make it difficult to sustain life, even though you can measure man made toxins in a fetus... and here we thought fetuses were worth protecting at all costs. Or is it protecting control of decisions... apparently there will be a "modernized" environmental assessment agency, that will do away with all of these nasty little problems that happen when man efficiently extracts valuable natural resources. Are we going to solve the problems, or just pass a rule that says you can ignore them? I think we know the answer... how are you to stay sane? You can't take drugs, that will cost you time in a prison paid for by the taxpayers, and essentially ruining your employability forever, not to mention other problems. Speaking of that, I think if you are going to make drug policy they you should have to experiment with the drug... just so you actually know, for sure what the hell you are talking about... Just an idea. It just seems like there are an incredible amount of people, working people, useful people, tax paying people, that smoke grass... and so to criminalize and jail all those people, it kind of seems bad for the economy. I was thinking, like if you let good people who smoke grass grow a few plants then they will have all the grass they need, you will solve your crime money problem, and you won't need to jail good people. Is it about the drug, or the choice? I mean I don't know, I have never smoked grass because it's illegal and I am afraid of the penalty, but I seems like some of the people who do aren't out to harm... yadda yadda
I guess I need a new point.
Then there is the guy running Canada at this moment... clearly not an idiot... not dumb at all, highly intelligent actually, but yet has been a leader on the climate change denying front for many years, he is swiftly progressing his agenda... but who for? Is there some chance that he and his children won't have to live in this planet? Or is there some weird guarantee that if you act in totally corporate interests then you will be promised the last glass of fresh water.
I don't know, perhaps I’m just totally insane, this human path we are on make no sense to me. Everything I have learned from listening and watching is essentially the same as some bizarre language rule... yes I always comes before e... oh but there is a c there... sorry you are Shit out of luck this time.
Oh yea and on the robocall issue- If you are dumb enough not to vote in 2011 because some automated call phoned you to tell you your polling station had changed, then you don’t deserve to vote. The idiot Conservative party won because it formed a coalition with the idiot Reform party, meanwhile the idiot Liberal party and the idiot NDP party refused to do so and got outfoxed on the issue. The also did well to deliver the senile vote.
In the end it’s all just memories, and deficits, and irreversible environmental catastrophes, and the elimination of the middle class consumers buying power, and the dumbing of society as a whole… just don’t smoke grass it will make you a dumb criminal.
