Vacation back philosophy

Have you noticed when you have loads to do, you don't do a singllllleeeeeee thing. Its like I anyway can't do it all, why bother with a few? Phew! I need another quiet vacation to get over this one.

Raise, guilt, happiness and happily ever afters..

When you get an unexpected increement after it is announced that nobody in the company is getting one since there was no inflation, but which only supposedly 25% in the organization have got, which only you have received in your team, which was not due to your performance alone but you are told was due to a combination of performance, your years in the company, your market value and all that jargon which basically translates to retention, what would your primary emotion be? Could it be guilt? Guilt for all the hours surfing the net, guilt for declining the early morning meetings, guilt for sleeping through the early morning meetings, guilt for watching TV while working from home, guilt in the knowledge that your boss lady worked much much harder than you and even worked during evening and weekends. It’s true, money cannot buy happiness. But, but , money is still very nice and now you no longer feel guilty for all the clothes you bought during the weekend. So, currently you make rash promises to yourself about working very hard and such like. You also think how you can put this money into your savings pool but know how your expenditure will raise up to meet your revenue.

B/w, boss lady really scared me. I get back from lunch and she tells me very seriously how she wants to talk to me alone and in a room! And I was just back from the lunch table discussing lay-offs and related matter! Jeez!
B/w 2., I need to get my visa to get all this money:)
B/w 3. if this sounds like a lot of money, its not! but hell, even if it is 100$, what clothes, what handbags, what shoes can be got!
It almost makes you want to believe in God.

This bothers me...

There is something very inhuman about this.What could he have seen of life?? This is like curing the cold when the body has cancer and he is only 22!

Not mine...

By the time you swear you're his,
Shivering and sighing,
And he vows his passion is
Infinite, undying –
Lady, make a note of this:
One of you is lying.

Lol, lovely, no?
