Well its been a couple of days....

I was on my way to work this morning at o-dark-thirty when my cell phone rang and seeing as how I had just left My Judy, and I knew I had everything, or at least I thought I did who would be calling me at this time of day, as I reached for my phone, inside my shirt pocket, I mentally went through the check list, lets see, I have not forgotten anything have I : Lunch - check,-wallet - check, sunglasses - check , phone - ring- 0 duh, pants? I finally got the phone clear of the flaps on the pocket and low and behold it was my supervisor. I answered with a song in my voice, and his comment was....no blog, Armfield, Why is there no blog? He hung up.

Its not that I have not written anything new here in a couple of days, its just that there is only 24 hours in any given day, I know, for a lot of us that is not enough, but don't blame me. Blame the Romans, I think, they come up with the twelve month calender. Lately I have been running out of hours just about the time I have to start all over again. So not having enough hours in the day got me to thinking. If we made each hour last 45 minutes, that would give us another 6 hours in the day to get things done. six more hours of family time, six more hours of play time, six more hours of sleep. WoW, that is a lot to think about!. Now if that was accomplished we would have to be careful, after all, when the government, by an act of Congress, can change the date of Memorial Day, Labor Day, Fourth of July and Christmas to get a three day weekend we ought to be able to get them to change and hour from 60 minutes to 45. The being careful part plays in with keeping them to working at least a few hours a week at their jobs. If we give Congress any excuse to not be at work they will take it and then some, I'm off topic, I will digress.
I really feel that most employers would appreciate changing the minutes in an hour. After all if they all agree, we would be paid an hourly wadge for less time on the job and overtime would kick in faster. IRS would be able to collect more taxes on hours worked. Contractors would make more money for doing less work. Shoot, it might be the best thing that ever happened to the economy.
WAIT, isn't that what is going on now? People all over are getting paid good money for doing less and less. Just look at the stupid stares you get in a grocery store when you ask where they put the dill pickles. Last night on the news I watched a story about a new company that does GPS type tracking on products in the grocery store. If you get lost or need to find the disposable diapers, you call a number, and a mechanical voice leads you to them.
When is the last time you had someone pump gas in your car? Helped you carry something to your car? Showed up on time for an appointment or your appointment was on time? Of course my all time favorite is weather people, never in the history of pay days have so many people in one industry been paid so much money for being wrong.....over 70% of the time!

If I have accomplished the goal of today's entry you have already forgotten that I have not entered anything for a couple of days and your off thinking of all the people that don't do their jobs which makes yours harder to do, and all of the weathermen with their styled hairdos and designer clothes getting paid for being WRONG......

Oh all right, I'll try to do better......
