Swiss Gold referendum...

I must say, this year...2014 has been the most interesting year so far. Back in September, we, The Scots had to decide whether to stay as part of the UK or go independent. Thankfully in the end, people saw sense and we're STILL part of the UK.
I grew up in Scotland BEING part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain...this in many respects is a huge privilege. Just for starters, the British Passport provides hassle free passage to most countries most of the time. Being part of a bigger country is more stable than being in a small country full of elderly and benefit (welfare) sponges...my reasons go on but I shall not dwell on it.

BACK to the main reason to this small post!

It is currently Sunday 1:06am and the Gold price is £745.56 per troy ounce and Silver price is £9.88 per troy ounce.

By this time tomorrow, there will be a decision on whether or not the Swiss banks will need to buy back 1500 TONNES of Gold at the tune of several Billion dollars at the current price.

I do hope the turn out will be a "Yes" and that Gold will need to be bought back and repatriated...I believe that any country wanting financial/economical stability should have gold reserves and that their currency is also backed by gold. This ensures that you can't just print paper "money" without more gold to back it...(if I've perked your interest...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyV0OfU3-FU)

On top of that I hope for two more things, the manipulation of Gold and Silver prices to implode and their prices to go to the point of where it should be. Equilibrium for the demand of these metals and the price has been offset...

My flat!

I was suppose to put this up eons ago! These are the photos of the flat that is mine! Haha. Of course it looks a little basic but it's for renting out and not myself! Here they are!

Drained...

It has been over a year and a bit since my last proper break. Yeah sure I get a day off per week but that isn't enough to allow the fatigued body of mine to rest up fully. I'm already a full time short and by this time on Wednesday...I'll be one full time and a part time shorter... Don't get me wrong...i WANT to have a break but the functioning of the business has high priority too. It is one of these horrible situations where one must give up something for the greater good. I can put food on the table, pay my bills on time and purchase whatever I want with relative ease but my body is crying out in pain for rest...resting would be luxurious yet it is an option I do not have for the time being...sometimes I wonder if the plave will run without me for a week... Then again, I strongly believe that a manager is suppose to be someone who creates a system that can run itself smoothly...with OR without the person. I guess I want it to be like that juat now... Fingers cr...

Ballocking from the manager...

It was Sunday 1st September... Work usually starts at 12pm on Sunday but because it was the first day of the new reg plates for cars, everyone came into work early. As my colleagues were very busy with delivering cars to their clients on a tight schedule...I was left to do odds and ends such as greeting customers and taking them out for test drives. A couple came into the showroom and wanted to test drive a Seat Ibiza....my mentor told me to grab the company's trade plates and the keys for the requested car. So off I went to grab both items...I've been here for just over a month and know pretty much where things are or where they should be...however...I not able to find the trade plates... What happened earlier was another colleague of mine had done a test drive with a customer and left the trade plates in that car...long story short, he didn't put the keys back onto the board where they're usually kept, I couldn't find them, my manager gave me a ballocking for n...
