We have all been there. You spend half an hour on the phone with an over-confident, obnoxiously chatty, twenty-something HR bimbo reading from her script and then in a few days you receive one of those highly impersonal automated rejection emails. But I thought we had a such a great connection. I mean, she asked … Continue reading The Dreaded Automated HR Rejection Email
I thought it was high time that I posted the resignation email I sent to my manager at my consulting gig last summer documented in my previous post. All names have been changed to protect the privacy of the innocent―as well as the guilty. Cheers. .... Dear Boss, I would like to thank you for … Continue reading A Proper Resignation Email
Week six at the new consulting gig has started and I’m trying to keep myself busy since the boss fails to give me anything to do. It is quite strange that the consultant has to keep asking for work considering the hourly rate that he is billing. Chilling and billing. As long as I’m sitting … Continue reading The Repressive Reign of the Rainbow
Buda Castle District (Fisherman's Bastion, Mathias Church, Royal Palace, Hungarian National Gallery)—The historic and beautiful Castle District is a must visit.

Another new year, another outrage in the office. I have held back from documenting every bit of ridiculousness I have witnessed over the course of the past six months, but today beckoned for an entry. Raptor swings by the aisle toward the end of the day to announce our reward of getting out a couple … Continue reading A Day in the Life of a Corporate Desk Jockey: Episode 13

He walks over to our cubicles and announces that Eduardo and another individual with a Spanish first name I can’t recall are here from South America. I look up and ask him with little to no … Continue reading A Day in the Life of a Corporate Desk Jockey: Episode 12
If you want the single best introduction to the concept of the Red Pill, look no further than The Rational Male (2013) by Rollo Tomassi. The description below from Amazon is an apt summary of what this book is about and I will not attempt to steal Mr. Tomassi's thunder by rewording his explanation. "The … Continue reading The Rational Male and the Red Pill
I was sent down to the other main corporate office about 15 miles further south for three weeks to be the back-up for a manager who went to London and Italy for vacation. The hellish commute of an extra 30 miles round-trip goes unthanked by the Raptor upon my return. That is all right. Par … Continue reading A Day in the Life of a Corporate Desk Jockey: Episode 11
Purge the feminist mindset and indoctrination from your approach to women. You are the man. You set the pace. You pursue and you lead. Women still look to you take charge despite phony protestations to the contrary. Possess confidence. Or get started developing confidence. This needs to come naturally from the core of your being, … Continue reading Seri’s 13 Cardinal Dating Rules for Men
I'm back from a great vacation in Denver just in time to attend the company’s bi-annual employee town hall meeting/pep rally. Lucky me. I show up ten minutes late and walk in while one of the senior executives is giving his spiel. The CEO later gets on stage in a double-breasted suit worth at least … Continue reading A Day in the Life of a Corporate Desk Jockey: Episode 10
