Business Plans

Well, it looks like my business empire is finally going to become a reality. As I've said before, a former colleague is all fired up about the business idea I put to him. He is going to pull together all the numerous strands of thought, scraps of information and ad hoc research that I've been doing for months. Regular updates as to the progress of our budding enterprise will follow.

How long have I dreamed of quitting the rat race? Too long. How much do I hate the incompetence of managers that are a blight on the face of British industry? Too much. The time has come to stop digging other people holes and dig some for myself. The saddest part of the whole thing is that my business idea is not engineering related. Engineering skills are no longer appreciated in this country and we will all suffer in the long run for it. Mark my words, I remember a comment made on the Money Programme years ago from a respected foreign economist who when asked to comment on Thatcher's (spit) insane drive to turn Britain into a service economy was to ask "How long can you hope to do other peoples dirty washing?" Bitch Thatcher destroyed the vast majority of our manufacturing industry and now her tory boy, MBA waving, managers are destroying what little remains.
