I get up in the morning. I clean my teeth. I spread jam on a slice of bread in the kitchen. I eat it up. I take my backpack. I am leaving. I am waiting for a lift on 11th floor. I am hurrying to a bus stop. I arrive to work. I sit down at my work place. I turn the pc on. I work. I am sending work tasks to others. I don’t know my colleagues. They only contact me via an electronic communication software. I go to the toilet. There are people standing next to me, I don’t know them. I return to my work place. I go to have lunch. I am surrounded by people. I am afraid to ask them anything. It is only allowed to speak via the electronic communication software. I leave work. I arrive at home. I watch TV. They say everything has gone bad. There is another scandal again. I go to bed and fall asleep.

There is a next day. I get up in the morning. I clean my teeth. I spread jam on a slice of bread in the kitchen. I eat it up. I take my backpack. I am leaving. I am waiting for a lift on 11th floor. I am hurrying to a bus stop. I arrive to work. I sit down at my work place. I turn the pc on. I work. I am sending work tasks to others. I don’t know my colleagues. They only contact me via an electronic communication software. I go to the toilet. There are people standing next to me, I don’t know them. I return to my work place. I go to have lunch. I am surrounded by people. I am afraid to ask them anything. It is only allowed to speak via the electronic communication software. I leave work. I arrive at home. I watch TV. They say everything has gone bad. There is another scandal again. I go to bed and fall asleep.

27 375 days have passed. I don’t get up anymore. I was a loyal corporate employee.

Note: In British Telecom, a big drawing hanged on the wall. It might have been around 3×1.5 metres. There was written: “You’re not another cog in the wheel.” British Telecom has around 105 300 employees worldwide.

Břetislav Sobek

My name is Bretislav Sobek. I am curious and don’t understand new things. That is the reason why I ask, I write it down and post it.

I have written hundreds of emails to newspaper’s editorial offices. They have answered me once. They wrote me that if I wanted to write I should study journalism including a link to the right faculty. They said it was supposed to be the right place for me.

Others answered with a suspicion that I was a PR manager of a political party. I just wanted to inform my fellow citizens about what I think was important to them.

I applied for Journalists unions. They didn’t accept me and weren’t able to explain me why. The same went for another ten candidates.

And that’s the reason why I decided to set up my own newspaper and named myself a chief editor.
