    Inspirational stuff

    In this world of woe is me and negativity I saw a place today that put a bloody big smile on my dial.
    The Central Depot for Mainfreight in Otahuhu has a bloody great big glass atrium its about 3 stories high with the staircase near the middle of it.
    All round the windows are really cool sayings that I wish I could remember all of
    Stuff like NEGATIVITY DRAINS ENERGY POSITIVITY ADDS ENERGY
    and ---IMPOSSIBLE IS JUST A POINT OF VIEW.


    If you get a chance go have a looksee its really good stuff

    Basicly I WANT to believe that this recession is in the minds of the poweres that be.
    Hows about we spread some POSITIVITY????
    To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?

    I actually got a real giggle out of one of there slogans one day. Driving past the Mainfreight Depot, one of their trucks pulled out right in front of me. Hitting the brakes, I muttered a few choice words.

    As the truck moved off in front of me, I noticed the slogan on the back:

    "Mistakes are just learning experiences."

    They also, as a group, make enormous amounts of money. Could be something in it, eh?

    Now I hate chicks AND inspirational stuff.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Some people just can't seem to comprehend that they do not have the right to be unoffended in their lives.

    Nope, short to medium term, we're fucked.

    But the good news is things will be much better in the longer term.
    Redefining slow since 2006...

    Not from an individual standard of living perspective. It will get better for most of the world. It will decrease in "Western" societies.

    The overall effect will be a decrease in life expectancy, education and health standards, mobility both physical and social, and probably a radical change in Governmental systems.

    Where once you thought a car was a necessary form of transport, you will probably be happy with a pair of enclosed shoes and a sturdy backpack.

    just a little fly in the ointment

    ... inspirational slogans ... magnificent corporate ethos... fantastic atrium ..... but service is shit and rates exorbitant... if only painting a twee slogan on your truck was an adequate substitute for customer care

    I agree; tell that to mainstream media, the fuckers. If it weren't for mainstream media negativity the property market would probably be intact, the world economy would be intact and motorcycle tyre prices would not have gone through the roof.

    Grrrrr.

    So, to be positive; regardless of the 'inflated' tyre prices we are still buying them, just to be safe before winter, and we can still put gas in the tank. Yee har.
