Trials and tribulations: two old problems revisited

摘要

I was recently surfing the www. Well, maybe not quite what you would expect, I'm referring to my own geriatric version, the world wide wireless which I find far less stressful. You do occasionally get the odd loony banging on but on the whole it's fairly peaceful stuff. Interesting none the less and quite amazing the snippets of information you can glean with no personal effort whatsoever. Two items recently caught my attention. One was about the changes in employment practices. It seems that increasingly people no longer work for one organisation but in effect loosely combine employment with a number to give them full time employment. There must be quite a lot of it about as someone's even given it a name. Portfolio Worker. That's me I thought, now I know what I am, I'm a portfolio worker. Quite a revelation. I'm official. I thought I just did a bit of this for that one and a bit of that for the other but no, it's a real phenomenon. See what benefits you get from the www. Following that there was half an hour on the workings of one's bowels. So if you require any information on constipation, in the strictest of confidence, of course, do let me know. By some strange concatenation of thoughts I'm led to suggest that for this month it might be appropriate to lightly review what has passed through the Problem Page in the last 12 months or so. If it doesn't help you it certainly gives me some relief. This is the 81 st Problem Page and even you don't have that many problems, despite what you sometimes think. So I declare February as a semi holiday from problems or at least from new ones.
