Bike Dreams

I’ve never worked for a company that provided free beer before, I’ve heard of it. I mean if it was London or something and ok ok its only light beer and yes at Samsung they did have a tab at one of the local bars every month so you could get really really drunk and insult your boss and he wouldnt remember the next day. But I mean I am sitting at my desk drinking beer and apparently that is ok.

Picsel was great because of the free curry every friday lunchtime and sometimes they would order out for pizza. I noticed they have vodka in some of the meeting rooms there too, if its a really bad day I think I will book one of those. Of course alcohol was strictly forbidden at Picsel due to religious reasons and we respected that, only I do seem to remember that beer looks very much like tea without milk if you put it in a mug.

There’s a lot of discussion about Picsel now and there is even a website for disgruntled ex-employees here http://expicsel.ning.com/ but I have to admit I loved working there, once they got in a massive load of Mecca Cola they have a brilliant website here http://mecca-cola.com although I have to admit it tasted pretty horrible. The funniest thing was when they went on a pilgramige hmmm can’t spell that one, well anyway they came back with loads of containers of holy water and it was sitting in the kitchen for a while. One of the containers was leaking all over the place, so I asked ‘were they holy containers?’ the guy that answered me wasn’t the brightest button and didnt get the joke obviously as he just said ‘no they are ordinary plastic ones’ and I didn’t press it as obvioulsy i respect their religion well ok i respect that they believe in something and i don’t want to upset them or something like that. The fact that they obviously embezzled a lot of money out of the company, got into trouble for illegal donations to the labour party, took money from the Malaysian government which is a poor country and I guess will never be paid back… as I said on the forum… what do you expect there is corruption everywhere if you dont like it then quit, you cant carry on working for a company and complain anout their morals, by working for them you are an accomplice to their crimes
