Tis the season

Posted on December 12th, 2009 by hamstar

Well, looks like Christmas has rolled around again. I would just like to take this time to remind everyone that Jesus Christ was not born on the 25th of December. He was actually born nearer the middle of the year.

What you are celebrating is actually an ancient pagan ritual called Yule-tide, stolen and renamed by christianity in order to try and get rid of paganism in Northern Europe.

So this year I will be wishing people Happy Yule-tide in protest of this christian bullshit takeover.

HAPPY YULE-TIDE!!

Obama’s Nobel Peace prize undeserved?

Posted on December 12th, 2009 by hamstar

OK, I like Obama… he looks like a dude you could trust to runa country, and I’m going to give him the benefit of the doubt here. If he’s not corrupt then he is definitely a pawn for the big corporations.

I don’t understand why he got a peace prize? For taking troops out of Iraq and putting them into Afghanistan? That doesn’t really equal peace does it? Especially because doing this is completely self serving for OPEC and other corrupt organisations.

You see, now that they have stopped Saddam drilling his own oil to use for his own country (like he watched the UAE do), they need to secure Afghanistan to allow a oil and gas pipeline to run through the country.

To run a pipeline through the country they need to get rid of the Taliban because they’re not really down with a pipeline. That is one of the supporting factors of 9/11 being a false flag operation. Talks with the Taliban about putting a pipeline through were breaking down before 9/11. A war on terror (and the Taliban) was a perfect excuse to take out those standing in the way of the pipeline. Not to mention the fact that the Taliban had destroyed all the poppy fields slowing the supply of heroin into America, and thus slowing the need for drug war spending (this is bad, the law enforcement agencies would lose their jobs with no drugs/users to confiscate/apprehend).

So back to the point of the of the story… it would seem Obama is sending US troops back into Afghanistan to make sure the Taliban are kept down. This in turn allows for a stable country for a pipeline to carry oil and gas from the resource rich countries north of Afghanistan, down to the sea for American ships to take as they please.

The problem here is that the country is not stable. Even if the Taliban are kept down, the country is in pretty bad shape since America invaded. Infrastructure and housing are needed and all promised aid has not arrived. This makes for desperate people living in poverty, and they are going to grow up angry at America because they dropped bombs on their houses and didn’t repair them.

Which is completely understandable right? If America invaded my country I would be fighting back. Some would label that being a terrorist, but I would label that being terrorized. America are the real terrorists in this world.

So basically it all comes back to greedy oil companies taking valuable resources from smaller countries that can’t protect themselves, with the help of the American Government/Army (aka Terrorists/Bullies), under the veil of The War On Terror. With utter disregard for the deaths of soldiers and civilians – they just want their money.

You got that? The only terrorist threat comes from America… everyone else is just a desperate patriot trying to fight back against the military industrial complex that has targeted their country and is stealing their resources.

Patriots exist in places other than the USA you know…

First day at new job…

Posted on December 7th, 2009 by hamstar

So was my first day today, was so much fun. I’ve got my own container bay to work on usually 2 containers at a time. I’ve also got my own gas MIG welder, and a whole bunch of brand new shit in my own toolbox. Got like, a grinder, a drill, and a super-heavy-duty grinder (all DeWalt stuff), brand new vice grips, welding helmet, gas cutting helmet, clear helmet, earmuffs, spraygun, air-powered rivet gun, welding gloves, grinding gloves, welding jacket… it’s awesome! And gas MIG is so easy to weld with, don’t even need to weave just gung ho and you get mean welds.

Today I managed to get 4 containers done and fixed, thats gotta be a pretty shit number though. Usually have to use the grinder with a sanding attachment on it (which kicks ass) to sand the plywood floors of the container, then blow all the dust out with an air hose, reattach with rivets and silicon up the door seals, and on one of them I had to reweld a bit that wasn’t welded properly.

I saw a dude replacing a corner post though, apparently any damage on them and they have to be replaced. Cut out the whole corner post with a gas axe then welded a new one in. Can’t wait till I get to do that.

However, AirNZ have already called me back about my application for the Business Analyst role, which could be worth up to 70k I reckon, I’ll find out tomorrow if I get an interview with them, then I’ll have to take a sickie to go to it.

Employment

Posted on December 4th, 2009 by hamstar

Well, I finally got a job after a 9 month holiday. Container repairing all the way in Otahuhu. Until January 5th I’m on dayshift 7am to 5pm, and then its nightshift 530pm to 330am. I’m worried about the traffic getting from Otahuhu to home at 5pm when I leave dayshift, and at 530pm when I start nightshift.

I’ll be doing sanding and painting mostly by the sounds of things, with the occasional cutting out and welding in new sheets of steel. Luckily its sanding with an electric sander and painting with a spraygun.

So I start monday, damn its going to be hard getting up at 5am again… Also, everyone else I saw there was black, so I’m gonna be a white computer geek blinding everyone. Will have to take my iPod too cos they crank some gay RnB station there.

Its a 3month trial, that standard thing that Labour bought in so I’m going to keep looking for IT jobs in the meantime but if I don’t get one this job sounds pretty fun, and its nightshift.
