I have only one more week left with the corrupt bourgeois pigs otherwise known as VANOC. (I serve primarily VANOC employees where I work) It's really quite fascinating to see them spend hours a day gossiping in a coffee shops and spending 14 dollars in a 8 hours shift on luxury items such as cappuccinos and cookies. It's also fascinating to listen to their conversations, things most tax paying citizens wont normally hear. Things like "We have to get the natives involved in volunteering. The natives will then feel like they're helping out and then cause less trouble," patronizing much? Or "Which Olympic mascot will look better as a Christmas ornament?" I'm on my break right now and the guys beside me are talking about going to school during the Olympics and how amazing it was to witness the torch relay through downtown Calgary.
