When America sneeze, the entire world catches cold!

Arab: First, we sell you our oil for $100 a barrel. Then, we can name one of our sewage treatment plant after you! ‘Al-Bush Sewage’
Bush: Du’oh! We’re americans, we’re rich, make it $180 per barrel.
The naming of a sewerage treatment plant story can be found at San Francisco Chronicle. The summary of the story is San Francisco voters will be asked to decide whether to name a city sewage plant in honor of President Bush.
With so many new records by the father and son presidential tag team, not to mention the current credit crisis that is sending the world into chaos at the time of writing, we ought to name every treatment plant in each country after each republican senator. The old saying is so true, when America sneeze, the entire world catches cold.
Let me what is installed for me in year 2009 when I graduate:
- Recession
- Jobless
- A weak Australian dollar, 2.2 against Malaysian Ringgit (10/08/08)
The trouble with unemployment is that the minute you wake up in the morning you’re on the job – Slappy White
Why are those in the construction industry always the first to be effected by recession? We’re so F***ed! Such an ideal time to graduate. Hopefully everything recovers in the fourth quarter of 2009.

Architects Say They Are ‘Very Happy’ With Their Job
According to Time Magazine’s survey on Job Happiness, 53.5% out of an unknown numbers of architects surveyed appears to be very happy with their job, I wonder what happen to the 46.5%?
Draftsman on the other hand happens to be the worst in the architecture industry, under paid for their knowledge and capabilities, I believe draftsman deserve more, no wonder they are sober, Mr.Architect can’t run an office without a draftsperson, can he/she?
A friend of my once told me, an architect does not draft or toy around with AutoCAD, it’s the draftsperson’s job. Graduate architects should be humble because working life and studying life are totally different, truth is, and we tend to think that the world revolves around us.
Anyway, what defines happiness? The idea of being underpaid and loyal to your boss? Or the fact that your very own design framed itself onto the cityscape? My colleague once told me, happiness in architecture is when you’re paid according to your skills and capabilities with your works being appreciated.
As for me, happiness is where the monies are. There is an old saying and it goes: ‘money can’t buy love’, but remember this, money has the potential to create a window of opportunity for love to blossom. Pretty much like happiness, money can’t buy happiness, but at least it gives you the opportunity to be artificially happy for a short period.
