h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I was pondering today at work and it occured to me there's a lot of what if,s in life.What if when leaving school I went to work in my present job would I be up the evoluntionary chain of command or stuck in still in the same level.What if I didn't go to the Phlippines in 1987 or even 1985 and went somewhere else would my life be any different.To be honest I'm glad I didn't.My life would have been less richer for all the things I done and seen.
Another bee in my bonnet today was pay rises the ceo of our company voted himself a whopping 15% payrise bringing him to £2.8million a year.If having asked why?,no doubt the reply would be because he make important descisions.In that case we all should be on £2.8 million as we make some descisions that affect ourselves and other people around us.This year we will get our 2.5% and be told to like or lump it the union(USDAW) are to weak to brew a cup of tea.
Thats another bee in my bonnet why bother having unions when they can't even get you a decent pay rise.I was briefly shop steward to USDAW when working at TVAM with union help I manged 7% it took four years to top that.Yes I know blowing my own trumpet(If we men could blow our own trumpet would we get out of bed every day???).Well I got that of my chest I'll come and talk to myself tommorow??!!>
