What Tomas An Buile Said In a Pub...

[aristophanes]

I *am* 'The Supervisor'.

The department is completely dysfunctional...but hey, all the more stunning it will be when we rise up from the ashes and self destruct in a completely different manner. Now I just have to push someone out, bring someone in and I can make this train wreck completely my own.

Notes:

• When you know someone is waiting at home, life moves differently
• Regardless of the company I work for, things were always better/crazier 8 to 12 years ago
• Apparently not all old Irish poetry should be ignored, just most of it

I SAW God. Do you doubt it?    
  Do you dare to doubt it?    
I saw the Almighty Man. His hand    
Was resting on a mountain, and    
He looked upon the World and all about it:           
I saw him plainer than you see me now,    
  You mustn't doubt it.

He was not satisfied;    
  His look was all dissatisfied.    
His beard swung on a wind far out of sight     
Behind the world's curve, and there was light    
Most fearful from His forehead, and He sighed,    
"That star went always wrong, and from the start    
  I was dissatisfied."

He lifted up His hand-     
  I say He heaved a dreadful hand    
Over the spinning Earth. Then I said, "Stay,    
You must not strike it, God; I'm in the way;    
And I will never move from where I stand."    
He said, "Dear child, I feared that you were dead,"     
  And stayed His hand.
