Sep. 16th, 2008 10:19 amMe at BOC in 1996 - yes clutching proudly my recently found second-hand Donkey Kong. First temp job, and not the last time I wore a suit but certainly I hated wearing it.
This was shot on large microfiche card, I was microfiching A1 plans.

Sep. 16th, 2008 02:54 pm I know very little about After Dark apart from it was a mostly-gay theatre magazine.
Very interesting to see someone has posted scans of them on Fickr...
esp the 70's ones where men had beards and quite now-fashionable fashions...

Song that gives me hope
Sep. 16th, 2008 03:57 pmIt's the lyrics:
Successful people look down and sneer at you
Just cos they have a brilliant career or two
Mostly you have nowt but contempt for them
They might be rich but it don't make em gentlemen
20 telegrams from your Aunt Dahlia
Insinuating that you are a failure
And your parents they pinned all their hopes on you
As if you failing would make them failures too
You try and try til at last you don't succeed
You work your hands and your fingers til they bleed
You gave years of your life to the company
Who left you screaming 'WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?'
Work is no reason to eat yourself up
Work has no reason at all
Work is no reason to eat yourself up
Work has no reason at all
Brilliant...and it gets better :-D
Interestingly the next track was Communist Cooking by Eric Idle. Maybe my iPod is telling my something.
