Customer call

I ask again how many light years will pass before all James, Joe, Michael, and Other Racism, Homophobia, and Chauvinism Pervading men will realize that the fact that a stranger knows the difference between Prada and Gucci. Is it a ninth world wonder? 

It happened at work: calling, answering.

James: I would like to speak to salesman knowledgeable in FILA label field, please.
Me: What queries do you have? - Considering that my company always collaborate with FILA and the sells a limited collection, its question sounds very daunting, wanted to ask where he feels like calling to Google? If it is so sorry, but our supervisor who answers such calls is now out for cigarette break.
James: I have a FILA limited collection question.
Gets funny!

Me: Yes?
James: I need FILA limited collection pair of sock shoes
Ohohoho as surprised! FILA question, great!

Me: anything specific?
James: Are you sure you'll be able to help me out?
No dear, nobody will be able to help you anymore.

Afternoon thoughts

Here's how I feel when most people turn off their eyes after five minutes of my luck theory lecture, though I can't even finish of the introductions. Every day like a big zoo around :) but it's all right, better than you think.   If others feel the same about me, it is all uber :)

Information Accessibility Overdose

I think I am exhausted because I often stumble and I am just frustrated by others and I have long forgotten about quiet sleep. Frequent frequency and the current time.  And my fatigue is chronical, and is probably incurable, leaving me in the environment where I am today.

But I'm so tired and in my head sounds Gregorian chanting, while all the knowledge and all the information just rub around and sleeps on the mat, begging for a long-term residence permit in my brain. And where is the need to remind the world that I exist here? Even writing this blog is worthless. My buddy hinted that it was difficult for him to talk in real life because if Google is unreachable it feels unsafe. I have noticed that I do not even try to memorize anything, because I can get everything by fingers allowing me to write down the keyboard maze, and in the worst case, just check the history of the web browser.

Coffee in your cornflakes

Once I had a lecture by Professor Ian Robertson about forgetfulness, distraction and inattention. Why do we sometimes pour coffee in our cornflakes instead of milk? Why don't we remember how we find ourselves somewhere else? Leaving home with slippers, etc. The answer to all the questions is automation, which is the result of routine and loos of the joy of life. Despite the fact that one of the most sophisticated mechanisms in the world is installed between our ears, a normal statistical person on the way to work does not look around, he does not know how many and what buildings are around, do not look at people, can not even tell the colour of the co-workers' eyes. Most of our behavioural complexes are habits. It's like a soft which w e will gradually install ourselves. Looks like we look, but we don't see it because we don't pay attention. To sum up, we control only a small part of our actions, and we leave the rest of the controls in the brain. So we tur...
