Bureaucrap &Raquo; Notes To Self By Mark Obrien

Once a bureaucracy grows beyond a certain size, it exists only to sustain itself and to grow. No bureaucracy ever recognizes its inefficient dysfunction, nor do the people who serve it ever examine it, seek to improve it, apply logic and reason to it, or say no to it. If the people who suffer its abuses are lucky, the monolith may one day collapse of its own weight. But until then, everyone who suffers by it is stuck with it. Case in point: the United States Postal Service (USPS). On September 3rd, I ordered a cap from a hat shop in San Diego, California. The graphic on the left shows the circuitous... Continue Reading

All About Eve &Raquo; Notes To Self By Mark Obrien

Author’s Note: People ask me fairly routinely, “What the hell do you think about?” I don’t know why they do that. And I’m not at all sure they really want to know. In any case, this is what I was thinking about after I read a recent headline in a local business journal. Read it at your own peril. If you want to know how long the financial-services industry has been around — and if you want to know how long women have been involved in that industry — check out this headline from the Hartford Business Journal (HBJ): “First woman becomes head of Northwest Community Bank”. The first... Continue Reading

First-World Problems &Raquo; Notes To Self By Mark Obrien

Do you ever wonder how many people living first-world lives might be compelled to change their behaviors on any given day, all of those behaviors likely to be superficial or trivial? Me, too. The question occurred to me yesterday when I came across three things in my Apple News feed. For openers, we could have read about the fact that things are so bad The Washington Post ran an article entitled, “5th Circuit finds Biden White House, CDC likely violated First Amendment”. If we’d done so, we would have found this: The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit on Friday ruled that the Biden... Continue Reading
