Call of the Wild
Welcome to 2006, fellow underling corporate slave monkeys. It's belated I admit, but I've been busy cleaning my cave and shoveling monkeyshit for #4 and #8,362,261,192.85EXP15 as of late.
So an interesting wrinkle unfolds in el-blogosphere today. This morning, as I was sitting in my smelly coach seat of a US Air deathtrap 914 at 6 in the morning, I stumbled across a NYTimes article about business traveller bloggers.
So basically, there are a bunch of people just like your favorite corporate soulmate, who have special bloggo outlets for their business travel, consulting, white-collar woe-is me tales. Great shit. Tales of airplanes, high-thread count sheets, airline security puffer machines, dumbass primates at the hotel bar, psuedo-anonymous internet lifesytles. Resting pulse...62. (except for Alex, who seems to have a pulse)
I'm fighting off all el-blogosphere instincts to throw shit and make enemies here. But lets face the facts. By 2010, there will be roughly 2 blogs for every human on the planet. And about 1 out of 10000 people might actually give a monkey crap about 'business blogs'. I reckon if these el-business bloggers funnelled their true 'anonymous' feelings towards this blog, we'd be throwing some serious shit.

I am one of the NY Times folks... if you hate being a corporate whore, quick your damn job and work for yourself. I did it and it rocks, although the CEO is still an asshole, but he is devilishly handsome.

Right on! That's the plan...however my goal is to fully understand how to navigate the corporate system first, then capitalize on that knowledge as an independent in a few years.
I'm not 'Corporate Whore' an angry poster to this site (that's an anonymous pal who's pissed).
The intent of this blog is to make light of the silly games that people take way too seriously. Thanks for posting!
