the gaslight anthem

been listening to the gaslight anthem the last couple of days. it reminds me of being somewhere else and not here, and i really want to be somewhere else these days. they play very american music heavily influenced by early springsteen but thats no surprise as they are from new jersey. lots of songs about cars and girls.

anyways decided to check out their website and saw they are playing in london at the astoria2 in about 3 weeks, so i bought tickets to go see them. its a great little venue to see a band play in.

work is the same as always though saying that i have actually done a little bit of work today, which makes a change. it was trivial by the way and appears as it will be from here on. oh well. have noticed a couple of other things whilst sat at my desk about people in the office. there is one guy here thats sits at his desk with his suit jacket on all the time. who sits with their jacket on all day?. at the end of the day its all creased up and looks like he has slept in it. its weird but there was someone who did the exact same thing at my last bank.

there are also a few people here that have put listed their qualifications or degrees on their email signatures. i can't stand that shit. its just petty point scoring and wanting to make yourself look clever or some shit. do they think we are going to be impressed or think they are really clever?. can you stop it please because actually i think it makes you look like a bigheaded egotistical asshole. idiot tech boss in my previous job used to do the exact same thing of listing his titles and qualifications and we all know that having worked with him, he was the biggest dumbass i have ever come across despite his doctorate, which i still can't believe he had.

anyways thats all i have to say about that.

keep smiling cali girl
