Life's Hard in High Tech

Thursday, July 3, 13:23 squint central. High Tech companies spend millions brain washing their employees. These poor, under-appreciated, over-worked techies fight a day by day struggle for light, food and shelter. Their unwashed bodies cramped into tiny cubicles, all individuality wiped out, they sweat and toil writing line after line of object oriented code. Their days are long as they burn the candle at both ends late into the night, often going days without sleep or sushi. Its a tough life, but for a dedicated few the payoffs are enormous. For others, the misery never ends. In the above picture the persecuted engineers of one silicon wadi company are forced to play the company anthem, over and over, till they get it right.

...why are there socks on the drums?

Its a long story, but picture this. The blackfamilyo household of an evening. The exhausted parents trying to rest their weary heads for a few moments. All you hear is the annoying tap, tap, tap, tap for the "rock band" drumset. Its enough to make you want to go insane. Not to mention that blackpetero has had to repair (by dismantling the top and resoldering the sensor pad) these a million times.

How observant of scarlet to notice the socks. I am surprised that they are still there, seeing rock band now lives with the suffering techies and not in the blackhousehold-o.
