    Current mood: geeky

    Just two things...
    There's one thing to be said about debates over e-mail, the considerable time lag between responses presents an opportunity to really ruminate over the other persons point of view... I've been having a most enlightening discussion on the nature of relationships, these past two weeks, with thea... I don't think either of us have managed to completely convince the other about the validity of our arguments... Which gives us an opportunity to keep the discussion going... Over time I'm sure she'll warm up to my point of view... ;)

    ~~

    It's funny how a prospective employer purports to be a fair remunerator and then promptly gets down to petty haggling when it comes to actually discussing money...! That's another thing I've seen plenty of, these last two weeks... Talking, pfaffing, negotiating and counter-negotiating... Desperately trying to sell myself to anyone who'll buy... Yup, working towards a job switch can become pretty sleazy business...!

    Thankfully, sanity prevailed in the end...! Negotiated the tempting labyrinth of moolah spinners and emerged almost unscathed... And, the job switch happened as well... So there...!

    The 8th of this month I bid adieu to NID and leave to do my own thing... No clients telling me what to do, or when, or how... Just me, my sketchpad and a fully equipped workshop to muck around and have fun in...

    Beware world, loose cannon cometh...!

ghalib's words in a situation -exactly- opposite to yours.
but then what's context to a man hell bent on quoting him. :)

and ghalib in gulzar's voice, must have been some evening. :(
