Yay, we get a long weekend. Some guy named Charles is the reason. I'll take it. Kerrie and I are going up to Glouster to freeze my ass off. See you next week once we get back to a lower altitude.

Forgive me if you think I'm getting political, but these clowns are ruining lives all over Australia. Kerrie and I are fine as we chose a simple business strategy with just the 2 of us. That can only work for a small number of people in business. Most businesses can only work with many employees. For some mysterious reason, these guys don't care about those millions of people. Multiply those millions of people by their family members, and you have the entire country. The numbers listed below are our quarterly electricity bills just 2 years apart. Usage was almost the same.

Albo isn't looking too good. He turned up at 8am this morning for his first day on the job since he bought into our business, but just on the quiet, I think he is regretting taking on so much at once. In just this last week, I have seen him smiling at hundreds of new roles that he has taken on. This photo is not very flattering but also it should be a message to our new business partner to slow up and pace yourself. Your not the young university student you once where. The real world is brutal sometimes.

I never thought an Australian Government could even do this. As just an average bloke, I thought I was safe to start a business 20 years ago and feel safe that maybe one day, if I work hard enough, I could sell it and retire without putting too much pressure on the pension system. In 20 years, Kerrie and I have had about 20 weeks of holidays, but they are at Christmas and over long weekends, so pretty much no holidays. These Uni students want to take my retirement from me. I'm just being selfish. I should be more worried about what my grandkids will never have. At least I experienced freedom for most of my life. Being Political used to be a bad move for business. I have no doubt at the moment that about 99.9 per cent agree with me.
