Fleeting

Sometimes I wonder if the people who design treads for Tyres go around looking at car wheels to see if their Tread is on there.  I wonder if they see the tread from a competing company and sneer at it.  Their children have to spend long car journeys listening to how amazing dad is and how his tread design is so much better than anyone else's.  He probably goes to get tyres from Kwik Fit and insists they put his tyre design on the car.

I think people over inflate their own potency at work.  I once knew a guy who would tell me huge stories about what he achieved at his job and how unbelievably awesome he was.  It turned out he only worked there for about 8 months.  I don't care who you are - you don't end up wearing snake skin boots and get covered in Elvis dust in any job in under a year.

My dad always said that, no matter how good you think you are, there is always someone better.  This is definitely true; and it its not true one day, it might be the next.  It also weirds me out that someone's brilliance can be undone by simply walking into a lamp post or falling out with a Doberman.  Everything is so Fleeting.

I couldn't find a picture for the word "fleeting", so here's an Elvis picture from the '68 Comeback Special. A-hu-hu.
