Just thinking in print

I was recently given a wee MP3 player thingy as a gift at the end of one of these totally unnecessary training courses that you get sent on these days. The ones where you half learn things that have no relevance to your job, but which keep auditors who either cant read or cant properly interpret regulations, bulleteins and resolutions happy , because you can now wave this irrelevant certificate at them. Anyway, I digress. It came with those wee earbud headphones which are marked L and R and which Im told is for Left and Right. Well, Ive used the thing, with total disregard for this convention, Ive just stuck them in to any of my two lugs, regardless of its position on my head, and the tunes dont sound any different. None of them, Ive tried it with The Pierces, Seasick Steve, Peter Greens Fleetwood Mac, John Mayall, Patti Smith, Mumford and Sons and Show of Hands and they all sound just fine regardless of which earhole I put the headphone buds in. Im left wondering, why bother marking them L and R , and Im also wondering if other people actually look carefully before sticking them in their lugholes making sure that they locate them properly in case something bad happens

I always check. That way, JM Jarre's helicopters don't catch me unawares.

The earphones I have on my mp3 player are asymetric and have to be put in the correct ears or they tend to fall out !

As far as MP3 players go, auditors, including the ones at my place of work, are odd indeed. The assymetrical design of the buds, tends to keep them spanking off, in a complete non job, which means nothing to a normal person.
I would reccomend sea sick Steve, Mumford and sons and punching ALL auditors, square in the face.

There are some MP3 players available, that auto adjust their volume. The thing about this, is that the auditor will most definitely have sex, with the light off, and wear polyester, provided by his wife called doreen. As far as music is concerned, i never thought i would like this particular album, but i can reccomend Plan B. A very clever, well written album, that any auditor would never listen too. They are far too busy, listening to Black Lace and Russ Abboot, and sweating in their cheap shirts.

When are you coming up for a visit?
