The last deliveries to the usual are the most acrobatic. Then it's raining (bad weather), and mica in the car I can use all four wheels to the services last minute. Thank goodness I have the bike shop. And here's the pink jersey wine store delivery, in the district, on behalf of clients laggards. Oh, if this economy is not recession, I do not know what else is. It 'also very ecological, downsizing, downshifting, those stuff there. Ready for 2011.
Questo Natale fa freddo (la fine del mondo in 80 giorni)
At the end of summer I do the budget existential Christmas finance. It is now a constant, and if you read back in this blog know that more or less always the case. And so here's a quasi-quasi-punctual and precise attempt to make some kind of budget.
In a nutshell, the night is dark and without lights, even small ones like the houses in the woods in a fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm: you do not see a chip. Excuse me if I lose the fooling around, but honestly I wonder how far it is right to weep on the word crisis, as the constant in the last five years is a slow down of the level of consumption: as I wrote, this does not seem but a steadily declining economy, unstoppable, a kind of riassestamento (in peggio) dei livelli collettivi socio-economico-qualchecosa. Come dice Phastidio.net , è un problema di crescita insufficiente: anche io mi accorgo di essere incastrato in un meccanismo perverso nel quale non sviluppo maggiore lavoro, anzi, questo si riduce. Produco meno, guadagno meno, consumo di conseguenza: e via così, tutti quanti.
Esempio concreto: quando gestisco l'omaggistica natalizia di un'azienda (poniamo: la spedizione di cinquanta regali ad altrettanti destinatari italiani) il fattore tempo impiegato-soluzione dei problemi-packaging è identico sia nel caso che la confezione costi, esempio, venti euro, o duecento. La differenza in termini produttivi should be evident, with the same commitment. Well, a constant in recent years has been the decline in sales for, by companies, this omaggistica, in poor words, shipments are made by twenty euro, first when the same company had an average cost, if not two hundred, at least to forty. And this is just one aspect, the marginal, the story that is still more complicated than that. Actually my point of view is considerably limited by the size and characteristics of my business, for example, in recent years I have given up all customers who had the habit of paying maturing "never" which is a great cutting I also have given the turnover in this way. In short, there is no pretense of describing the economic megatrends and I'm just limiting to look out of my lane. The show is what it is, no positive signal in sight.
So, this Christmas it's cold. It's so cold that I have betrayed my mission and I dropped the scooter and I have come to his shop by car. It's cold, the sales are frozen and the chilling weather. So what is, come the end of the world in eighty days. That arrivals' I flood, I just want to see how.
SenzaTrucco is the new blog wine (yes, there is always a need for new bog eno, se sono così) ad opera di Giulia Graglia, un'assaggiatrice-cinefila-unsaccodialtrerobe che ho conosciuto col team Dissapore. Dal questo post prendo il filmato che vedete, relativo a San Fereolo. Esempio tipico di fornitore "mio".
"Oggi coltivare la terra in modo contadino è eversivo. Di fatto non a parole. Ed è eversivo in quanto atto, non per la fede politica. Staccarsi dalla chimica, dalle banche del seme, dalla meccanizzazione selvaggia, è eversione. Né di destra né di sinistra. Solo eversione. Non aderire ad un modello è eversivo. Proporre and practice is another subversion. Submit a cheese that can be done only 2 months of the year is subversion. A closed-loop agriculture is subversion. Although it does not carry any flag, and no slogan. The dependence today is not subversion. Disseminating knowledge peasants is subversion. Cut ties with banks, with the official knowledge is subversion. produce and eat salad without pesticides and full of flavor is subversion. Bread of plastic, it is mainstream. I confess I am a dangerous terrorist, the bread that I bake in the oven, the wine that I've done, the vegetables are very dangerous companion of my smoking guns. "
