I spent most of the day talking and working with a telecom technician who works for a company that provides spanking fast DSL internet connection. <\/p>\n
That is if ‘spanking fast’ is defined as the urge to apply a quick blow in the arse to the person next to you every time you get annoyed with the speed. But seriously it is faster than my 56<\/font>K dial-up internet connection at home.<\/p>\n I even had the chance to ride on their service mobile and talk about life with him, talk about food, the sea and raising children. He accompanied me to a computer hardware retailer, gave me a discount after the owner allowed us to test the component first before even paying for it.<\/p>\n Sometimes we often hear the word ‘sucks’ being added to something. Company-001<\/font> sucks. TechBlahBlah sucks.<\/p>\n The world sucks.<\/p>\n Most often we add this word because we’re dissatisfied… or probably because seeing the negative side is inherent to our human traits.<\/p>\n And we do this without even considering the reasons behind such thing.<\/p>\n This technician (I won’t name names nor I would name the company since I don’t like saying negative stuff to a Philippine-based company even if it is already owned by a foreign entity), works with his partner (yup just the two of them) servicing 100<\/font>++ (or even greater) clients covering an area which is nTechnicians(raised to the power of 32(<\/font>square miles)). <\/p>\n The company holds N number of employees nationwide five years ago, now they’re down to N\/4<\/font> and N here is a five digit number having a val(substr(alltrim(str(N)), 2<\/font>, 1<\/font>)) > 6<\/font>. They’re even planning to trim down even more.<\/p>\n Indeed… it is a sucky world out there.<\/p>\n But there’s nothing we could do to improve things by re-stating the obvious.<\/p>\n One must unload(TheSuckinessState).<\/p>\n How?<\/p>\n There are tons of ways really.<\/p>\n But none of them includes including the word ‘sucks’ in anything that disappoints a first person’s pathetic self centered soul.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I spent most of the day talking and working with a telecom technician who works for a company that provides spanking fast DSL internet connection.
