Mission Bay

Waitress, "Im sorry maam, I know you ordered Chai Latte but we're actually out of Chai"
Bitchy blonde lady, without looking up from cellphone, "Thats ridiculous. What sort of cafe runs out of Chai. Well I guess I'll just have to order something else."

Ewwww.... Mission Bay is SO Auckland. Its actually pretty amusing, Rick and I sitting there and making bitchy comments about all the poofs and their hairdresser cars (orange convertable new Beetle, anyone?) walking past sneering middle-class prats sitting in Cafe Riva with their DoubleDecafSoyMochaLatteInABowls... The toilets were pretty disappointing too, i thought those public loos were supposed to be full of deviants but when we went in we were the only deviants there. *sigh*...

Had to go back home and keep the the flatmates awake. Lifes tough sometimes.

Outsourcing

For some reason its okay to buy cheap Nikes made in indonesia, GAP clothing made in Pakistan, automotive components assembled in Mexico, but NOT okay to have your coding and IT work sent to India.

Greed is when youve got everything you need and you still want more. In the name of greed you've given your country to capitalism, turned over control of your lives to corporations and urged them to Grow, Grow, Grow!! But now the corporations are leaving you behind, feeding their own greed quite successfully, and somehow its not okay any more.

make own bed ---> sleep in it.
