Time Travel

By avoidingwork

Tim says:
man, i oughta be running this company

James says:
if you stick around till you’re old enough you will

Tim says:
i told them that this project would be way past deadline and they didn’t listen. but was i right? yes.

James says:
that’s because you spend all day on MSN

Tim says:
hahaha

Tim says:
nah, the programming part

Tim says:
i’m not involved with that

James says:
oh right- well that’s always either over budget or over schedule anyway right?

Tim says:
but they were in a fantasy world

Tim says:
this thing was clearly clearly not even close to being close to being finished

James says:
I read an interesting thing once that said if estimates for big jobs were accurate, they’d never be finished. Things like St Paul’s Cathedral, Real Madrid’s stadium, Sydney Opera House etc. would just not exist

James says:
sorry I mean they’d never be given the green light

Tim says:
oh yeah

Tim says:
yeah that’s true

James says:
the last proper project I worked on only finished on time because everybody on it worked 12 hour days for 3 months

Tim says:
even you? haha

James says:
at one point I worked a straight 11 days

James says:
yeah it was bonkers, the hottest summer in years and I couldn’t even see a window

Tim says:
the last time i was working hard was when they thought they’d get this thing done by december 1st

James says:
no chance of that now eh?

Tim says:
uh…not without the old time machine

Tim says:
but the time machine project is also delayed

James says:
bastard!

Tim says:
these time machine guys are lazy

James says:
now see

Tim says:
they’re like “once we finish it we’ll go back in time and erase this reality”

James says:
they’ll never finish it, because otherwise they’d have already gone back in time and changed the finish date

Tim says:
woah, now you’re blowing my mind

James says:
some people say it’s proof that we’ll never master time travel- cos if we did, we’d already know about it

James says:
then other people say that orange juice without bits in it tastes better

Tim says:
i know that i personally will never master time travel. otherwise, i’d be sitting on a throne of solid gold smoking a big spliff and getting a double blowjob from 2 japanese twins

James says:
that’d be a good afternoon

Tim says:
wait a minute…

Tim says:
there’s a bright light…it’s a like a door is opening in middle of the air…

James says:
what is it! what is it!!

Tim says:
oh damnit! it’s future version of the guy from marketing. he’s a got a sports almanac with him. lucky bastard!

James says:
hahaha
