Being in charge of manufacturing aircraft would be cool.


Like this aircraft?

Yes! We will sell them to the USA.

My specifications are that you fit them with cruise missiles and anti-missile lasers, and make them capable of very high speeds.

None. I'm a nanny/teacher.

But actually, for manufacturing jobs (such as silicon wafer manufacturing) managers usually prefer to hire people with no experience in that particular field, so the employees don't bring in preconceived notions about how to do things. Someone who is used to working in a plant making a very high quality product will have a hard time adjusting to the pace of a plant that produces a lower quality product, but faster.

All this talk reminds me of this music video:

Nice video.

Well, I didn't know that. But it does make sense.

Brrr, cold here.
For weeks it was nice and warm and now it feels like the damn antarctic to me, not that I have ever been there and would know what it would feel like.

I love this sort of weather. It makes me feel all cosy inside. I love frost and fog, whereas I hate hot, sunny weather.

I love it when it rains at night, and you wake up at four in the morning feeling all cozy and smelling rain.

Hi Quatermass!

I watched a documentary about Ted Bundy the late serial killer. He was a real nutcase.
