Petrol price spam

It would appear once again “bob” – failing to find a sense of worth in his current job in middle management and exhausted from freely issuing his intellectual gems on his own employees has broken out and constructed a chain mail showing insight and intellect so progressive that had he been born in the Palaeolithic period apes might have considered him above average intelligence. “bob” ‘s latest endeavour is to take on the fuel companies *hysterical laughter and rolling on the floor* excerpts from this masterpiece entitled National campaign to reduce petrol price (doesn’t it just inspire you to go running through the streets with a piece of cardboard or chain yourself to a petrol pump ) include :

“an invitation to join the resistance” can you see them all dressed in black diving and rolling from the diesel pump to the 97 and then leopard crawling across the forecourt in order to place slanderous flyer on the bill board

“we all need to take some intelligent, united action” apparently “bob” finally realized the vital flaw in his previous plan “don’t buy petrol day” ….although very intelligent it was somewhat not united – for some reason (which bob just couldn’t understand) everyone didn’t band together and take to the streets on their bicycles in a united effort to show the fuel companies who is boss. I mean have you ever heard of a more ridiculous notion – about as futile as taking zyban to give up smoking (apparently )

now “bobs” latest idea – what devilish wisdom - what sheer hand rubbing evil cackle inducing brilliance - you can’t not buy petrol ……….. you just can’t buy it from the one particular company (apparently bob only studied economics for a couple of months before dropping out - he remembers the supply and demand curve but little else - including the fact the petrol price is controlled by the Department of Minerals and Energy) so as much fun as it does sound bankrupting a fuel company bob , the only bias I will ever apply in my choice of filling up will be the station that happens to be closest when my petrol gauge hits the red (simplistic I know – but you can’t imagine how effective )

BRAVO BOB – don’t pull a brain muscle

footnote : The price of petrol is expected to go up by 36 cents a litre on Wednesday, June 2, the Department of Minerals and Energy announced on Thursday
