1924

I can still like you know totally hardly believe that it really happened. I was like sitting there at the back of the McKinlay Room last Tuesday? and listening to Jerry Fisher giving us a talk on why it is important to upscale and downsize at the same time while also making some ‘cost cuttings’ in those areas that we like never bother to even to look? when I felt this pair of eyes looking at me and I like so didn’t want it to be Phil that was doing it but it turned out to be not him at all but Jim Fraser from the other place who was giving me like a total glare all the time and I like never knew which way to look any time, you know? like I knew I was told that he had it for women like me but I like never knew what this red-faced shitbag was trying to pull? so I shot him one back and he sort of like just went red and looked away but I like knew he was still looking at me so I ignored him because fat and sweating white guys don’t do it for me. Anyways so I was listening to Fisher bang on about money and shit like that and I was so totally not really listening but just taking notes down because my boss Carol-Lynn didn’t want to go so she forced me to go only but I said only if I was going to get out of that course in Seattle she was trying to send me on and anyways I know about her and know-you-who and she wears those shoes he bought for her when we were in Denver? So I was like not really listening and watching out for that pale fat slob Fraser when there was a sort of commotion at the front like some sort of fight or arguing or something and words were exchanged and even Ward was on his feet which made me wonder? and some people were looking up for like the first time that day – totally not like Fraser, though – and I look up and see these like totally unbelievable words up on the PowerPoint screen in front of all of us hundreds of people and then the place fell y’know like sort of silent and Fisher tries to lose the screen but can’t and then says some thing like ‘Uhhhhh…that wasn’t really supposed to happen right now’ as though like he was planning it to happen later and we are all like totally about to walk out and I see that Heave-Ho has missed it all so far because he’s staring at me and there are already like people walking right out of there and shouting and stuff and there’s a real fight going on and it’s all like so weird because of all that section eighty-three stuff they were giving us over the last weeks and then it all like goes and totally blows up on them like that and anyways I get up to leave and shoots fat man a look like I am disgusted with all his types which like I totally am anyway and then I pick up my stuff and laugh inside and leave because it’s all so strange to fight two battles in one day and win them both so easily and anyway it’s such a strange paradigm.
