Ordinary man stuff.

I hate being ripped off by these wise guys who prey on peoples hopes and desires.

Yestrerday I looked at getting some work driving ,and advertised on one of these jobsites was the promise of work. All you had to do was text Your name, address, postal code with the word DRIVER before it.

Cost £1,50 for the text . linked to a website http://www.driverconnection.co.uk/ .

As an ordinary man I thought the very least I would get back a response.

No No No, obviously a scam to catch out the ordinary man again .

Don't you just hate these smart arses. Have now seen on google other ordinary men been caught out by them.

Watch out for them , they prey on peoples hopes, Bas****s

Football Season Starts

Well the start of the Football season today for real.
Seems an anti-climax after the world cup ,and England's less than ordinary showing.
Can't seem to get excited for this.
Used to like football an ordinary mans sport , a few jars before the game and curry after with the missus, but now too Hollywood for me.
Used to play rugby in the past myself and feel like following that now more than Football. Trouble with football now overpaid players acting like primadona's .
Fall over with slightest touch,and roll around in agony. Pathetic.
The ordinary man's verdict: Follow Rugby played by real ordinary men.

Corporate speak

Why has the world gone crazy for corporate speak.
I forget who it was that said 'lets put all the lawyers in a big room and throw away the key', but for me I have to say the real ####holes are the 'marketing guys' .I say this way because this is the way they would love to be refered to 'Guys'. They even try to change the way we speak.
As an ordinary man I see every day where these types of been. they and there offshots 'spin doctors' seem to be everywhere. Spin Doctors what are they making better?
'The company is 'downsizing' ? .They even try to make things sound cute. By saying we are getting smaller makes it sound nice they think. 'We're going to have run leaner' ? like it means we've been a diet and we are now healthier .
Let me give you an ordinary mans take on this . These idiotic sayings hide the idiots who ruin ordinary mans lifes,but by somehow dressing this up to sound cute and healthy makes it all alright they think.
Marketing People have ruined this world ,and continue to do so on a daily basis, telling people what they need and embarrassing them into ways of life they don't need to adopt , telling them they won't fit in unless they comply and buy .
You need a Blackberry or an i-phone ? why? what's wrong with a phone you just talk on? why do I need to text? if it's that important write a letter?  ( No sorry we've all forgot to how to ).No wonder the latest results from school say leavers are worse at english and mathematics, but the overall results are higher???? (Marketing Man)
Give me some marketing speak and I will give you an ordinary mans take on it.
Even if the girlfriend/boyfriend/wife or husband says 'I like you, but we've grown apart' Ordinary man defination : They don't like you ,and they found someone else.
Let's all try to be straight and cut the marketing bull. Let's all try to start to think again, (inside or outside the box) it doesn't matter so long as we start to drop the stupid talk.
Anyway end of my little rant, (lets car park that) dooooah.
