Dissertation on Business Ethics

I had a whole 4 and a half hours sleep today before I got called in to work, which pretty much means selling a LOT of dodgy fish to unsuspecting customers. Those who spend time with me know that I have been unashamedly vocal about the quality of the seafood Action Southlands sells, so when once again, when my boss asked me to put out some really old fillets, I once again spoke my mind on this matter. Here is an excerpt from the conversation (may be slightly paraphrased):

Jase: Dear Beloved Employer, I would like to voice my concern over the quality of this seafood product.

Boss: PUT THEM OUT, PEON!

Jase: Esteemed manager, are you engaging in and/or condoning unethical business practices in regards to the seafood item we are currently selling?

Boss: RARRG I AM EVIL END BOSS WITH SUPER MEGA POWER!!11!oneoneone! PUT THEM OUT SAYS I !! OBEY ME OR DIE IN MANY PAINFUL WAYS INVOLVING VIN DIESEL MOVIES!!1one!

Jase: EEK! I shall have to transform into SUPER UBER AWESOME POWER PERSON OF MUCH SMITING.

and to cut the long story short he cast a whole bunch of status ailments on me and I died, and since I couldn't be bothered reverting to a previous save, I put the fillets out.

Moral of the story: Don't buy seafood unless you can see the fish is fresh. Stay away from gourmet stuff that isn't frozen, and always ask if you can get the frozen stuff.

Anyway, beside working, went to the movies on Tues, with Dan, Bec, Rebbecca and Nic. Oh yeah, and Andrew. We were at Nic's to watch Bourne Identity, then went to watch Bourne Supremacy. It was a pretty good movie actually, so I was satisfied. After that Dan drove me back to mine, where we talked about stuff (which I might talk about later), till 4 in the morning :o . Yeah, the conversation was that good.

Anyway, to wrap things up, here is (the much anticipated, to be sure) Top 5 List;

Top 5 Things Women Say But DON'T Really Mean:

5. I'll be ready in a minute.
Translation: Go watch the entire Lord of the Rings, I might just about be ready halfway through the third movie.

4. Do what you want.
Translation: Go ahead, you'll pay for it later

3. Lets not talk about it.
Translation: I DO want to talk about it, but only 2 weeks later, and at the worst most inconvenient time for you.

2. Its a good size.
Translation: hahahahahahahahahaah

and the number one thing women say, but don't really mean IS (Oh the suspense)....

1. I'm sorry.

I think most guys already know the translation for this, but here it is for the benefit of the girls....
Translation: YOU will be sorry.

Anyway, thats the end of tonights episode, please cue "My Girl" for ending song, thank you, come again!
