How To Lower Your Petrol Prices

So Below is an email I got from this lady I work with who insists on sending me at least four pointless joke emails a day and I only let her keep doing it because she has no life and I feel sorry for her.  Todays email was a little different in that it actually bought up a pretty good point- to my surprise. I did however feel kind of let down by the fact that it ended with one of those "Send this to 1 billion people and you will get lots and lots of sex" kind of deals because it would have otherwise been a half decent proposal.  Consider the below email for me and let me know what you think. Personally I think it is a great idea (only I took out the bullshit at the end for your benefit-fuck Im good to you!). THIS IS NOT THE 'DON'T BUY' PETROL FOR ONE DAY, BUT IT WILL SHOW YOU HOW WE CAN GET PETROL BACK DOWN TO $1.00 PER Litre.... This was originally sent by Phillip Hollsworth, a retired Coca Colaexecutive. If you are tired of the gas prices going up AND they will continue to rise this winter, take time to read this, PLEASE.  Phillip offered this good idea.This makes MUCH MORE SENSE than the 'don't buy petrol on a certain day' campaign that was going around last April or May! It is worth your consideration. Join the resistance!!!! We are going to hit $ 2.00 a litre and it might go higher!! Want petrol prices to come down? We need to take some intelligent, united action. The oil companies just laughed at last year’s action because they knew we would not continue to 'hurt' ourselves by refusing to buy petrol.  It was more of an inconvenience to us than it was a problem for them.  BUT whoever thought of this idea, has come up with a plan that can really work. Please read on and join with us! By now, you're probably thinking petrol priced at about $1.50 is cheap. It is currently $1.90 for regular unleaded. Now that the oil companies and the OPEC nations have conditioned us to think that the cost of a liter of gas is CHEAP at $1.50, we need to take aggressive action to teach them that BUYERS control the market place...not sellers. With the price of gasoline going up more each day, we consumers need to take action. The only way we are going to see the price of petrol come down is if we hit someone in the pocketbook by not purchasing their petrol! And, we can do that WITHOUT hurting ourselves. How? Since we all rely on our cars, we can't just stop buying petrol. But we CAN have an impact on petrol prices if we all act together to force a price war. Here's the idea: For the rest of this year, DON'T purchase ANY petrol from  BP the biggest price-up driver company. If they are not selling any petrol, they will be inclined to reduce their prices. If they reduce their prices, the other companies will have to follow suit. But to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of BP petrol buyers. It's SO simple!

No Really... Go Fuck Yourself

Okay so I have drafted the email to this hopeless she bitch and her useless team of "Marketers and Communicators" and it goes a little something like this:

Dear She-Cunt,

Forgive the lateness of this email. I had planned to bring up this point should I have been given the chance for an interview. However I feel that it is only sporting for a young Communications Graduate, whom has hands on experience in developing successful social media campaigns, to point out to you that the current Facebook page that your shitty attempt at a Museum employs is currently in violation of this platforms' 'Statement of Rights and Responsibilities'. 

To save you the hassle of trying to figure out where exactly this page has gone wrong I have taken an excerpt from Facebook's Help Center/FAQ's  page:

"The account I created to promote my business, band or other organization is now disabled.

Per our Statement of Rights and Responsibilities, Facebook profiles must represent an individual. Users aren't permitted to maintain an account under the name of their organization, or use personal accounts to advertise or promote themselves professionally. If your profile was listed under a non-individual name, or was used primarily for professional promotion, this is probably why it was removed."

(Please refer to: http://www.facebook.com/help/?search=can%20personal%20profiles%20be%20used%20to%20promote%20a%20business?)

In simple terms, this means that in signing up with Facebook all users agree that "Profile" pages are to represent individuals only and Facebook actually reserves the right to close any page without notice should there be any violation. Facebook also states in their 'Statement of Rights and Responsibilities' that accounts closed at their discretion may not be reopened without express permission.

I hope this information helps to clarify this problem for your Communications team. Now the challenge has been identified I am sure your team will be more than capable of rectifying this simple Social Media faux pas. If you have any further queries regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to get in contact with with me.

New Beginnings

So I have committed myself to believing that 2011 is the year of change for me! 

I have spent the last week writing a "new and improved" CV - (How can something be Improved if its New right?). I am now laboriously poring over a cover letter for a job I am going to apply for - and I'm going to get!

(I call on the power of the secret!)

I have decided that I really need to get my shit sorted for saving for this trip with Paz. I have worked it out that I will need to tuck away about $200 a week which means that after rent and food I am going to have NO money for myself.... Lifes hard but it will be worth it!

The last and probably biggest change for 2011 is the health kick that Paz and I have decided to go on. So I'm 6ft and 110kg and Im looking to slim down and tone up. The first mile stone to my new sexy life is the half marathon in March. 

Paz and I are cutting out Booze, Coffee, Cigarettes and Takeaways for two months to help us get to the peak of physical condition for this mad long run! Im hoping this will stem over to our lives after the detox. My goal behind this is to makes this a life thing rather than a 2 month goal. Im doing it big. Iv gotten so serous about it a Google imaged "6ft 110kg male" and this is what I came up with:

Im by no means in to wrestling but I want to look like John Cena one day. First thing tomorrow Im going for a run then Im going to shoot into town and buy a planner so that I can mark out my weeks- For any of this to be a success I need to have it in writing somewhere... This is where this blog come in!

I will use this as an outlet. As a progress report. As a support network. I am going to blog 5 times a week- even if its just to check in an tell you all how exhausted I am or how much I am hating eating healthy. I decided the other night that I need to keep a structure- the planner helps me to do that and getting into the habit of blogging about my experiences will make it something that I am forced to think about every day!

If ANYONE out there in blog land has managed to successfully go on a health kick that has remained permanent it would be great to hear from you. Similarly- and possibly more importantly- if there is ANYONE out there in blog land who has decided to make it a New Years resolution to maybe slim down and tone up or just make healthier decisions I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to hear from you... I may be pushing it a bit but if there are any fitness guru's or nutritionists in the house that would like to lend a helping hand I would basically love you forever and promise you my first born child (failing that a vial of my sperm).

Anywho- this post was more for me than you. Putting all of my plans out there on my blog adds some sort of finality to it but as always I would still love to hear from you- comments, emails, more followers... what ever!

Peace out my little sex kittens!

PS I just realised that I have asked people to get in touch with me in more than one post but i havent even given you any email address to do it- you can find it in my profile now but its thedawnrave@hotmail.com for those who cant be bothered going to look (I know I would be one of those people)

Work Emails

So funny story for you guys... This is a tale that to all should learn from!!! So when I got
my job as a manager I got a new work email address which I was excited about (I know... Geeky right?) so what's the first thong I do??? I txt my friends who work to he their work emails... So I start emailing my friend Shaneinei casually as for a few months and I get a few joke emails here and there which keepse entertained when I feel like doing fuck all. Anyway since then I have been moved to manage a different team and get a new email address. As part of this transition I had to train my replacement. I have to show her to how access her emails and ofcourse iv forgotten to tell all my friends my new address. I go to the in-box and there's a message from Shaneinei entitled "your first christmas card" - I jokingly explained to my replacemt that this was all I did all day and ... So I open this email expecting some kind of sweet email wishing me merry Xmas (albeit early) and I get a picture of some ripped hottie in undies and a Santa hat... Awkward!!!


Thankgod she is the kind of person who can take a joke

in other news- went to a local club last night that had a singing comp to support my friend Alana and THE cutest guy in the world won. he was so adorable like an amazing voice and he was hot plus he was a really sweet guy. I kind of melted every time he went on stage. He cried when he won (I love the sensitive types). I think I'm in love :S

hope you're all well xoxox
