Corporate Manipulation

Working in the top management of a corporation, I realized that success is not only tied with how much you can contribute in the company nor how extremely good looking you are (which btw is a major plus factor) but on how you manipulate the people around you.

Sometimes, you do not even realize that you are already part of the game. It's all about how you flaunt your way in. Little by little, everyone becomes a subject of your little dirty trick. The good thing, besides the fact that you get what you want, your colleagues think highly of you because they feel that you are always by their side. The question is, are you really? Or you're just trying to be to get that promotion or to grab that project wherein the decision is not within your turf.

I wonder if this all sounds unjust, i honestly think that it's a form of survival. The corporate world is a jungle, preys and predators living in the same world, you can't be in the middle, you have to choose one or manipulate the animals around you so you can be of both roles at the same time.

Penis Worship

What happens when you bring all the top executives of the company in one room? They all get bored. And when these people are bored, there's not much to talk about but sex. Let's face it, put them all together in one room with different nationalities, the only language that will be common for everyone is in fact sex.

I just found out today, that in India, they have a GOD where it's phallic symbol is the male's penis. Shiviling is what it's called.

I'm not really sure if it's a god of fertility or libido, whatever it is, it made me now realize that people who worship dicks actually have a GOD to call their own.

Brain Surgery

In a room full of the upper executives for a quarterly business review, one of our directors presented a project that she mirrored from her india counterpart.

She was asked by the Vice President if what was the success measure of the project in India?

Her answer,with full of enthusiasm and energy, "Because we are confident that the project will be successful!" followed by a grin that could even drive leprechauns away.

Our Chinese Vice President, could only open his half closed lid and said nothing and turned his head to our American Country President.

The American Country President who's well known for his sarcasm, uttered - and that fellow bloggers would find that very moment a quotable history - responded:

Pointing to one of the Senior Managers, "I am confident that I can operate your brain, would you allow me to do a brain surgery on your head?"

And the Senior Manager could only say, "NOOO!!!'

And the Business Review ends.

Presidential Election 60% of votes

At the latest, Noynoy is still leading!! THank God! No, that he is winning but because of Villar's minimal chance of winning. ANd I was scared that he'd won at first due to his sooo many political ads that even the daughter of Kris could only shout Villar's name on a political rally! I guess Pinoys have already learned their lesson of not trusting people like him. Honestly, i get annoyed everytime i see him, he looks a hell like a money grabber bitch!

Owl City

Adam young must be the most talented artist in his time!! Did you know he started producing his own music in his basement and publish them on his myspace page?? As his fans grew, everything was just history!!

According to wikipedia, his genre is called synthpop, whatever that is...

Chocoholics!

I got home today and the size of this chocolate caught my attention!! BEsides the fact that it's extremely huge, it's also phenomenally tasteful. Must be the weather but it literally melts in your fingers and mouth!

(Btw, that's not me on the photo above, just found it online)

Just look at how biggie this junk is: Check out how much I've nibbled so far:

It's crazy! I swear I'm feeling dizzy as I write!

May 2010 Presidential Elections

As of around 8pm, Comelec released the partial results of the May 2010 Philippine Elections and it turned out that 25% of the total votes, Noynoy Aquino is leading. Not that I'm disappointed but somehow it's a relief than having Villar as President. I think Villar is a smart thief, he knows how to strategize on how he can gain profit without being directly related to corruption. He thinks like a businessman, which he is!

On the other hand, Ninoy may be of good moral, clean background, in fact, he's too clean that he hasn't done anything in the past. But, I would still prefer Nonoy as the President over Villar. Who knows, he might have the leadership we all have been waiting.

Foot Spa

(photo below is not the actual branch but they all look the same)

I had my first ever foot spa today! At a cheap price of 99.00 pesos at one of the salons (Index Salon) nearby. I ended up having bruises on both of my feet due to the aggressive rubbing.

They started with a warm foot bath, followed by the rubbing and a massage. Painted my foot with pink liquid to make it look healthy and glowing.

I'm not really a foot fetish person, which means I never really look at people's feet. So, this isn't really something that I would have done on a regular basis. I was more after with the relaxing after feel. But that didn't happen.

I don't know, maybe because it's below standards (considering the price), I wasn't convinced that they did justice to my ugly feet. In fact, I think the sole of my feet looks darker now and I have red bruises all over. Tell me, does the picture below tells you, I was just at a foot spa?

I need Alcohol, 100% Ethyl!!

Happiness Theory

I have a stong gut feel that happiness is not created permanent. I think people who claim that they've been happy for the rest of their lives are just contented but not necessarily happy.

Try to remember the last time where you really felt happy where you literally jump in your feet because of joy and excitement. It doesn't last long, right? On a few occassion, that emotional joy will cross your mind and you smile silently.

I think that I should focus on how to be contented rather than trying to be happy. Because really, being happy doesn't really last very long.

Let's celebrate if we are happy now, bring down the drinks!!

Wedding Blues

It must be that month where you hear the wedding bells. ANd I thought it's June? I have two invites for this month and I plan not to show up to any. In fact, I really won't.

The ceremony sucks, the priests are boring, the only consolation is the food. Being on the church with half of the guests I've never met in my entire life will only make me feel worse on an event that will never happen to me. Why waste a day to make myself more miserable?

Instead, I ignored all the invitations and pretended I'm busy and I will just simply not bother talking to them until they will forget that I never showed up.

Then we could all sit in a bar and order drinks.

On Mothers Day

I opened my facebook account and I saw all the greetings for the moms out there. Not once, i bothered to reply or post to any greeting. Not that I do not appreciate my mother, in fact, the only reason why I am still grounded is because of her.

But I choose not to hear all the greetings, i choose not to greet my own mother, i choose to pretend that I do not know what day is today.

I do not have anything for her, I'm broke and pretending that you don't know is the easiest escape of showing not to care.

I need another drink.

My First Alibi

I do not think I am a liar. I think I'm just making excuses to all the failures of this world, the failures of my life, the failures of this country, the failures of my career, the failures of my social life, the failures of showbusiness, and the failures of everything!

THis is a blog that complaints and make alibi of the imperfections in my world. An extension of my subconcious mind, brought out in the open for everyone to read.

I need a drink.
