Work, work, work, work and drink


Working at 21.00 at a friday night.... fun. Titten is ready to go out and have fun!

Most people in Tittens company in Manila, worked and worked and worked and worked and guess what worked some more. Just so it is said Crunch hours does not work. It is inefficient. After 8 weeks with 60 hours week gives the same output as 8 with 40 hours. Still Kristin not so much Ole Brum any more (Norwegian finance minister) I do not think six hour work day is a good idea eigther.




Luckily did some of Tittens workmates still show him around at night!

Bowling


Titten has not played a lot of bowling in his life. And the times he has he sucked big time. Two weekends he joined the company and played some set with bowling. 114 as the best score came as a big surprise for the handsome but often clumpsy Titten.

The ear thar hear

Elmers perception:
Mmmm nice dancing, wonder what Titten thinks about that girl.
"Hey Titten"
"yeah" titten answer
Oh now Titten drinks some beer again elmer thinks to himself .
"What do you think about ...."
He drinks again, he must be drunk by now.
"Nice boobs" Titten says. what elemer thinks to hoimself.
"you are very direct"
" hmmmm maybe" Titten says.


Tittens perception
Mmmm beers tast good. Nice evening. Little tired and loads of jetleg.
Elmer is talking again.
"Hey Titten"
"yeah"
I drink some more beer, nothing for me, wonder why asians turn out drunk so fast.
"What do you think about that girl"
He point at a girl, not completly Tittens type, but she moved nice to the music.
"Nice moves" Titten answer
"you are very direct" Elmer says
" hmmmm maybe" Titten says and wonder about what was so direct about his statement. The girl was not completly his type, but she could dance, so to say nice moves sounded like a positive way to see the situation. Why does everybody think i am so drunk

On monday everybody knows the situation, and unde rone of many snacks. So many snacks in the philippines, one of the crazy woman in Titten office asks him.
" So why do you like .... boobs"
Titten is abig questionmark
"Boobs?....... I did not say boobs I said MOVES!"

at least it all made sense now.

Western sin's

"Choose a girl, for you, enjoy" The hooker mom says
"no I am just here to watch", Titten says for time number 99.
The guy next to Tittens table said the same. A half hour later he was in one of the VIP rooms together with a girl that was beautiful once, before all here smiles and happiness disappeared. Titten has had enough. He plays a last song on his souenir guitar for 3 US$ earlier the same night, and manage to get a couple of the poor naked girls to smile. It makes him happy and hope his music can take away some of the sin's the western world do to the east.

Titten have never been in a country with so many ugly western people with such a beautiful girl on they arm. The chemistry though, is non existing. Some of them are even married to the Phillipino. Actually the western guy is often married to the whole family.It is like here, you need to support them all. Since the girl is married to the guys wallet, and not his carisma. This especially happens out in the provinces. Stories tells about weddings where the fathe rholds the gun toward the westerner. If you first has tkaen her inecent, then you shall marry her.

It clubs here where girls dance naked, and sell themself in smal VIP rooms, where it normally say "Occupied". They do not want to but they do it to support family and often their own studies. Manila seems to be even dirtier when it comes to sex industry than Bangkok. Is Manila clse to tak eover? Somehow it makes sense. The girls here are prettier and the country is poorer.

The girls live on western sins, they go against the strong catholic religion and open their legs to old ugly men, from europe, the states, and japanese business men, and the local rich men (politician etc) to get some of their black corrupt money back to socity through closing their eyes and hoping for a better tommorow.

Summer outing



Last weekend did Titten go with his firm to a summer outing. It was just Titten and philippinos so Titten had a blast. Beach, 32 degrees water, funny and hospital people, great food and free drinks makes Titten happy.

The night ended with that Titten managed to convince a bunch of people to join in on a night swim. Earlier he had gotten injured under the firms summer outing games, been singing karoke just as ugly as Titten can in both english and the local language ( a song about a black bikini).
Tittn and his team The Vikingos with their cheer, singing about beer. Unfrotunalty did the tema just end on third spot, one point behind the second spot. Titten blames the judges, and if it had been a fair game with fair rules, his team should maybe have been on the top. but fun it was!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Titten enjoying one of many beers with view over the fantastic hot and warm ocean
