Sorry I’ve not been around for a few days, I’ll do some catching up on my blog reading in a minute. I hope you’ve all been keeping out of mischief; or in mischief, if that’s your thing. I spent the weekend finishing a draft of the book I’m writing, oh and watching the film Us it was great.
Today our robot mower was causing trouble, although that’s not so much Momo’s fault as Mike stirring up trouble because he thinks Momo is trying to take his job. Last week Mike set up the sprinkler in the bit of lawn being mowed to get Momo to explode (didn’t work), and then today he was trying to grass up (pun!) the mower to management. I over heard this conversation between a boss and Mike:
‘Look, Momo has done a terrible job,’ said Mike. ‘It’s killed that lawn. I’d be sent home if I did that.’
‘It’s fine, it looks fine,’ said the boss.
‘And it’s always sitting around, doing nothing for hours on end,’ said Mike.
‘It’s his lunchbreak, he’s allowed a break.’
‘And it keeps vaping on the job!’
Poor old Momo.

Momo’s also been spending time with a sexy drone that flys by from time to time. Only been on the job a short time and Momo has picked up bad habits. Tell Mike his job is safe.

Brilliant! A disadvantage to robots that we didn’t forsee! A Russian colleague was telling me today that Robot comes from robotnik (don’t know how it’s spelt) the Russian word for worker. But maybe they created a new workforce as emotional and unreliable as humans?
Mike will be relieved anyway 😀
