The Corporation

Before i say more , or indeed to much on this one, i feel the need for a mindlessly dull disclaimer , for i`m no hippy people , not in the slightest, i will go on record as having never hugged a tree, ever.

As some of you may be familiar with a past trait of mine as being a label whore ( yes past trait, good people as i have been finding it all tirelessly pointless in my married 30 something incarnation ), a wandering billboard for others has been getting very `92 for me in recent years.

But , having said that the pursuit of profit, both personal and professional has had a strong hold on my work ethic for the last 17 years. I must also say that after watching "The Corporation", i`m kinda envious of my lovely wife as she has a blossoming career within the non-profit sector.

I`m also struggling with my ideals of ambition and prosperity for the wife and i, as "The Corporation" turns the high street on its head, and about time too.

does wanting a new flat screen monitor make me a bad guy ?

and i find myself wishing that i didn`t crave starbuck`s lattes so damn much , and there was a convenient alternative but hey thats another issue .

but i`m just a cook , right ? . one that has been favouring independent business as an employer.


anyway enough of my hang ups go watch the damn film for your selves, and a big thank you to the great fava bean philosopher himself for recommending this as essential viewing , cheers GB
