It is with great regret that I have to start this blog with very sad news. It has been my pleasure for several years now to know a young man called Stephen. I have watched him be rejected from pillar to post in his employment, I have seen him with the young lady who a year ago became his wife, and it’s embarrassing they appear so in love).
He left the general round of trying to find a natural home for his undoubted talents when he joined our department, in the front office of all places, but soon moved into the room where we keep the creatures from the dark side. The Bitch from Hell, the lady from Planet Zanussi and the only 24 hour wind machine.
He has been suffering for the past few weeks, going downhill, forgetting things. Wondering around the corridors talking to himself, pressing the wrong buttons on his computer. It has even been alleged by one person (who is not always honest and truthful) that he has been seen working; now I do not believe this. It would be the first time it has ever been seen. There are vauge non substantiated rumours, more like urban myths, that back in the last century he was seen working, but no live witnesses have ever been found.
As he was fond of saying one of his brain cells was equal to the rest of humanity’s intelligence combined.
Well Yesterday the 12th April 2006. His one and only brain cell died. Now he is as thick as the rest from the dark side.
