biometrics and accounting and drugs (oh GAAP!)

gee toto, i don't think we're in kansas anymore... i wonder if modern economics is against the law there too... but this entry is not about the backwards educational systems in certain states that shall remain nameless, at least in this run on sentence, noooooo, this entry is about biometrics and accounting and drugs, i mean, in case you were sleeping at the title sequence...

yeah, so biometrics are coming up in a bit, but first we (my boss and i and other brass from other companies) went to a seminar on cost factors in managing facilities like the one i manage... i was second lowest on the brass totem pole in the room of six brasses getting tutored by our accounting firm, one was a cfo and another a ceo and another an accountant and another was an unknown and then there was my VP boss and i don't think they knew much more than i did about what was being taught even though their jobs depended on it much more than i do because they are supposed to be insuring the accounting is done for people like me... yeah, it's good to be an administrator... until the axe falls (administrators make for easy scapegoats when things go wrong for any company who employs the scapegoat method of responding to things going wrong... i am hoping this is not one of those companies, but only time will tell)...

so the morning was woozy... not so much due to the subject matter though, it was woozy cuz of the drugs... an herbal mixture sold under the brand calms forte as a sleep aid... yes, they recommend a tablet or two before bed... i took those... then another six or eight throughout the morning... it is preparation for the biometrics coming up when i get back to the house (facility)... i'd say wish me luck, but there's little luck involved... the game is rigged in favor of the insurance company who is doing the biometric tests to determine how much discount on premiums i get... yes, the fox is checking the hens for body mass...

life in the capitalistic dystopia...

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)
