Best. Title. Ever.
I need to write more. More stories.
And I need to shift my focus towards humour.
So much shit has been happening lately, man.
So much.
I feel so very tired.
Like, down-to-the-bone tired,
despite downing two cups of coffee for the pre-dawn meal about 3 hours ago.
I'm working on a LinkedIn post,
about small businesses and location intelligence.
And it is taking way, waaaay too long.
The research part is probably what's holding me back.
Free data?
OK just took a second to Google it.
Meh. I suppose a single example within Singapore ought to do it.
Later today,
I'll have to attend a lunch event held by IBM.
There'll be great networking opportunities.
Except, I won't be eating or drinking.
But it's cool, though. I've got a plan.
Instead of walking up to strangers who are having lunch,
with nothing but air in my hands,
like I'm a little off and just wandered in from the streets looking to talk to random strangers,
I'll be holding a... wait for it... wait for it... an empty coffee cup!!!
Oh yes.
I know... I know... brilliant plan.
It'll look like I'm either having coffee (or tea)(or coke)(or whatever),
or I've just finished my drink.
Man, I need this to go well.
Especially after pissing off the IT guy at MOM,
even though I'd checked with him first if it's OK for me to approach the end-users to get their feedback.
Nooooo!
When they begin checking in with him,
suddenly this asshole starts getting annoyed,
and gives me a call and rudely tells me to stop,
after implying that he expected me to approach only one or two people.
Seriously?
You're looking at an enterprise GIS,
and wanted to ensure that it would be widely adopted.
If you'd wanted me to just speak with two people...
YOU SHOULD HAVE TOLD ME SO.
Not just when it became inconvenient for your lazy ass.
Anyway, the baby' back from her walk,
and I've got a ton of shit to get done before the event.
Feels like I need to climb a mountain at top speed,
while wearing a heavy backpack containing two billy goats,
a bowling ball,
and 9 munchkins.
It's going to be an exhausting climb.
Well enough of that.
