Unable to Post for Health and Safety Reasons
Posted in Funny, Blogs, Wireless on July 25, 2008 at 9:18 am
I won’t be blogging for a week or so as I’m off on my hols. Last year I was told the place I was going had WiFi so I bought a wifi adaptor especially to surf whilst away. However, when I got there they said “We were putting it in but weren’t allowed because of health and safety”.
I recently heard that the first step to wisdom was to stop blaming others and to accept the blame yourself. The second step is to realise no one is to blame. Wise words (except when obviously someone IS to blame) but I can’t remember where I heard them - possibly Kung Fu Panda!
Anyway, my point is that Heath and Safety has taken over from computers as the excuse of choice. Something we love to hate and are powerless against makes the best scapegoat. I guess we should be glad we have them to blame, in less technical times and places it has been the Jews or the Hutus…
Maybe Kung Fu Panda had a point.
