I’m so excited! I’ve been waiting for this day for three years now. January 23, 2020. Some people know it as Thursday. I know it as the day of Window Con. A convention all about windows that happens once every three years. It’s so much fun. 2017 was my first ever Window Con, and I …
People always say the world is getting smaller, and I think that’s a real shame. We used to have such a desire for adventure and discovery as a species, but it just seems to have gone away. Humanity went to the moon, and then we kind of just gave up, decided there wasn’t anything else …
If I had a dollar for every time I’ve had to go to the hardware store this month, I’d have exactly one dollar. Now, if I had a dollar for every time I’ve tried to go to the hardware store this month, I’d have… more than that. Significantly more. I’ve been meaning to head down …
I can’t believe they’re getting us to install hyperbaric chambers in our offices. This season of Australia’s Next Top Office has honestly gone off the rails. We haven’t done anything actually relating to offices when you think about it. They got us to build kitchens, bathrooms and laundries (what kind of office has a laundry …
You know those days when your to-do list is completely out of control? Like, you tick one thing off and two more new additions crop up in its place, like some kind of administrative hydra? That’s what I’ve been experiencing all week. I don’t even know where it’s all coming from – it’s as though …
“How do you think the others are doing?” I asked, looking toward the glass bottle that Space Wizard sat within. His bottle was inside the new office’s refrigerator as I was setting up the air conditioner. Melbourne had decided to give us a blistering forty-degree day in the middle of winter and although Space Wizard …
Do you ever wonder where they get steel from? I know what the official story is, about mining, ore and factories, but I just find it a bit suspicious. Maybe it’s because I’ve been playing a lot of Space Zone, the old video game, but its plot got me wondering if there’s more to the …
The Dirge is going to thrash the other competition on Next Top Office. He – that is to say, the one writing this blog post – has such a huge advantage that he probably shouldn’t even be on the show. And now that Space Wizard has been liquified, his biggest rival is the Glass Smashing …
Oh man, is it that time of the year again? Ever since I was twelve my parents have made me go to a career counsellor once a year to make sure I don’t want to adjust my career plan. Every time I tell them that I haven’t changed my mind but they never listen. Why …
I’m the owner of a wedding car company in Melbourne. Having successfully run this business for over twenty years, I’ve been fortunate enough to experience some of the happiest moments of hundreds of people’s lives. I think in twenty years, I can count on one hand the amount of times anything has gone wrong. Unfortunately, …
