@catseye3 Fun tibit - cardboard box manufacturing is a highly regional industry. Because of the slim margin on boxes, it doesn't make sense to make them centrally and ship them around the world (ahead of being used).
P.S. definitions of "fun" vary person to person

Speaking of bean-counters - my son works in a department store, and they allocate the hours based on the payroll allocated by central office. Central office allocate the monthly payroll based on the turnover from the previous year. So this month, it was completely in the toilet, so they didn't call any staff in, so the poor bastards who are working are completely overwhelmed.
A moron with a computer is a dangerous thing.
I was only joking

Every Monday morning I am in a manager meeting where we go over activity for the past week and compare to prior year... This week I might have caused a bit of a ruckus by asking why we were comparing this week vs this week last year, and perhaps we should compare with 19? And that for the next three months, comparisons might be pointless.

I suspect that pretty much everybody wanks, or has at some time, but not everybody is a wanker.

@mik said in Third Wave Here?:
Yeah, they pretty much are, in one way or another.
To paraphrase a great man...
If you meet somebody and think they are a wanker, they’re probably a wanker. If you think everybody you meet is a wanker, chances are that you are the wanker...

I don't think Mr. Twain lived in Massachusetts.
Also, I don't think Mr. Twain said that quote about assholes.

Beethoven was known to count out coffee beans obsessively in preparing his morning waker upper.
And yes, he had a reputation of being something of a disagreeable wanker.

Funny you should mention. Years ago, I listened to Greenberg's biography of Ludwig. He (Beethoven, not Greenberg) was such a horrible, horrible person. The account of his dealing with his sister-in-law and the custody of his nephew made me really, really dislike the man. Granted, it was an emotional response, but it was a long time before I could enjoy his music without thinking of what an asshole he was.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
