Essential musings

The funny thing about working in a shop is you get to learn all about people's eating habits...

Today I served people around supper time: one guy bought a massive piece of steak, and someone else got 2 things of pot noodles and a can of red bull!

Earlier this week, I had something published in the Kentish Gazette, which I sent to them after writing the story for inQuire. I rang the KM group and asked them if they'd be interested in the stor, and they were. :-) So p18, and on the web with my name at the top.

The story was about Kent Union gaining Sunday Times best 100 companies recognition.

Elections are on the way here in the world of Kent: elections for the Student Union Vice President roles, as well as the President him/her self and part time positions. (Bored yet?)

Well, actually its not boring!

I think not enough people vote in these elections, and I think the outcome is very important. It will direct what happens to Kent Union over the next year, and as KU is currently one of the biggest in the country (in terms of people employed and activities undertaken) there is a lot that could go wrong!

There are a few people who are running under a similar banner, the socialist one, and they say they will give part of their earnings to a learning fund which doesn't have very much money.

I'm not sure about some of them though, do they have a trustworthy attitude, and the respectability to run the Union? Will people listen to them, and will they make a difference?
