Another day!

Looking at the Sunday Papers one cannot help but notice the number of vehicles and properties for sale in the increase and job opportunities ads on the decrease. There are like a huge number of people who have been layed off from big companies looking for jobs. Then of course there is the kotelawala scam which had many employees resigning.

All the main markets are not as crowded. New years sales in shops are not really booming. We have crazy rains in the evenings. No bonus. Fairly depressive way to start the new year. This is the start of a drop and is expected to keep going down in the next few months.

Was at a seminar a few months back and apparently a leading Bank abroad had predicted that the recession would come and hit in this way and done graphs and stuff like one year back. No body took notice of the analysis in the developed countries.

One of our warehouse manager had invested all his savings in sakvithi and golden. How do u even give encouragement to people who have lost so much? I am at a loss seriously........

But then again Odel is always packed, there is a mad rush at house of fashion... people are going nuts over new donuts and its just another day in paradise!
