The Contingency Plan

so what have you been up to lately?

forget the question of occupation, this is how we're being judged. i mean, how can nine to five cut it when you consider moments of freedom?

travelling is the ultimate of answers here. anyone who's familiar with our culture knows the young flee (usually to london) with backpacks full of desire for undetermined periods of time, and our travel shows always receive high ratings. perhaps it's to do with being so far away from the rest of the world.

and work is definitely the most pathetic of answers. recovering from work is even more disgraceful.

so let's take a quick kazumi toll of the office today to see the status of things:

88% of my office had a relaxing weekend - they did things like slept in, went out with friends for brunch/coffee, blah blah blah.

16% got drunk. that's four people out of 25. the company has the medium age of 24 so this disconcerting, surely the percentage should be higher.

16% worked. thankfully i'm not included in this number. this week.. hopefully those who worked did so drunk.

8% experienced a show (theatre + cirque du soleil).

interesting.... not really.
