If no-one else cares, neither will I. Not a good attitude and not a good position to get into to. In fact it fucking sucks if you’ll pardon my French. I asked earlier “Why should I”? well isn’t the fact that no-one else does good enough, well no its not the one simple reason is because it matters. If we are going to let all of the little problems slip by pretty soon they are going to add up and they are going to cause a major problem. So how am I going to fix this, what will I do to solve this which is not my problem? Well, I can’t fix it directly…that’s not true I could go in and do it now and you know that idea has a lot of merit but I suspect in the long run that would be a bad thing to do.
So given there is no formal method of moving forward on little things like this, I’m gonna cover it another way. It is within my purview to ask for something to be tested to see if it works as expected and hell I can also define what is working as expected. Nice huh? So that’s the plan I’m going to note all of these and I’m fucking well going to make sure that someone else notes them down aswell and then lets assign the fuckers to them to fix them.
A good plan yes? No, its a shit plan and its not really the way anything should work. (Something is broken, you should just tell the person responsible and then they should go fix it. Unfortunately the real world does not work like that, in fact it just plain does not work.) But its all I have and I’ve gotta work with what I have.
World Leader Pretend by R.E.M.
I sit at my table and wage war on myself
It seems like it’s all…it’s all for nothing
I know the barricades, and
I know the mortar in the wall breaks
I recognize the weapons, I used them well
This is my mistake. Let me make it good
I raised the wall, and I will be the one to knock it down
I’ve a rich understanding of my finest defenses
I proclaim that claims are left unstated,
I demand a rematch
I decree a stalemate
I divine my deeper motives
I recognize the weapons
I’ve practiced them well. I fitted them myself
It’s amazing what devices you can sympathize…empathize
This is my mistake. Let me make it good
I raised the walls, and I will be the one to knock it down
Reach out for me and hold me tight. Hold that memory
Let my machine talk to me. Let my machine talk to me
This is my world
And I am the world leader pretend
This is my life
And this is my time
I have been given the freedom
To do as I see fit
It’s high time I’ve razed the walls
That I’ve constructed
It’s amazing what devices you can sympathize…emapathize
This is my mistake. Let me make it good
I raised the walls, and I will be the one to knock it down
You fill in the mortar. You fill in the harmony
You fill in the mortar. I raised the walls
And I’m the only one
I will be the one to knock it down
