    Hi,
    today I was at Tesco Walton again, around 9 PM.

    Today you were sold out of Everyday Value Pizza’s. (The ones that costs 60 pence).

    You are quite often sold out of this product, I’ve noticed.


    (And I’ve also complained to you about this, a few days ago, if I remember it right).

    These pizzas are good as a kind of ‘second dinner’ I think. So I first make some chicken steaks or something like that.
    And then the pizza to get full. Then I get a balanced diet, I think. But this store is ‘always’ sold out. I think I told you more than a year ago, that there is a bit few shelves in this store.

    (Or shop is a better word perhaps, because you don’t really store the goods that much I think.

    At least you don’t store enough of the pizza’s.

    I think you order to little almost all the time of them.
    You order like 10 pizzas. Then they’re sold out. And you order ten pizzas again.

    Something like this. Can one call it a store then? Surely a store would have had a minimum order for these pizzas, so that you would have more than e.g. half a days sales, of these pizzas in your store/shop).

    When I worked as a store manager in Rimi. I would stock up on popular products. In Norway we have Pizza Grandiosa which is very popular. I would have like ten boxes, (of ten pizzas), of this product, on the freezer-storage. So that if we were sold out, we could just go to the freezer-storage and find a box of Pizza Grandiosas there. This isn’t exactly rocket science I think.
    So it shouldn’t really be necessary for me to explain about this routine, for you, in this e-mail.

    Hi,
    ok, I don’t understand why you don’t fill up the self-service check out machines with enough coins at the start of the day? Or why don’t you refill one machine at the time?
    (In stead of closing the whole department?). This seems strange to me.

    If you have a self service department, then that should be open, when the store is open, I think.

    I used to shop at the big Sainsbury in Kensington, (the one with a Starbucks cafe), for around a week, in February, in 2005.

    And they didn’t tell me then that these types of departments weren’t going to be open for all the hours the store is open. This seems strange, I think.

    And in the staffed till that day some boys with bikes, (I think it was), forgot a plastic-bottle of milk.

    When they were in that till before me.

    (Because that was the till with the shortest queue). I thought this was strange. And the female Cashier was  unaware so I had to tell her that someone had forgotten their milk.


    And she ran after the boys. So it’s easier to shop in the self-service tills I think. I’m from Norway and there they use a kind of divider, so that customers have longer time, to pack their goods, in the staffed tills.

    That’s one of the reasons I like the self-service-tills, because then you don’t get the next customers goods mixed with your own goods.

    So I think it’s strange that you sometimes close the self service department early.


    If you have a department like that it should be open as long as the store is open, I think.

    I’ve never seen this at Asda, that they close the self-service-department early. Erik Ribsskog
    PS. I send a copy e-mail to Tesco, since they haven’t replied yet, to my complaint about them. Tesco Walton doesn’t have a self-service department, for some reason. So there it’s a bit stressing to shop, I think.

    And your cashiers, at Sainsburys Rice Lane, they don’t stand in their tills, like the cashiers at Tesco Walton. Since you have chairs, in your tills, I guess the reason is.

    And you at Sainsbury’s only have one type of shopping-baskets.

    Where as Tesco Walton has three different types, (which doesn’t mix/stock, even if they are more or less the same size). They have some dark blue baskets, some less dark blue baskets, and some metal-baskets, which looks more or less like Sainsbury’s baskets in Rice Lane, I think. So I think enough ‘strange stuff’ is going on, at Tesco Walton. So I don’t like it when Sainsbury’s Rice Lane starts to do ‘strange stuff’ as well. Just as an update.

    Dear Mr Ribsskog


    Thank you for your email.  I am sorry that when you visited our Rice Lane store recently our self scanner checkouts closed early and you were wondering why this happens.


    We always aim to exceed our customers’ expectations and we use customers’ feedback to continually improve our products and services.


    I called the store and spoke to Diane Colligan, Checkout Team Leader.  Diane explained that the reason the self scanner checkouts were switched off was to allow them to remove the money cassettes as they were empty and refill them.  Diane apologises for any inconvenience caused.


    I hope this information is helpful.  We appreciate you taking the time to email us and we hope to see you in store again soon.


    Yours sincerely

    Hi,

    today I was at Tesco Walton again, (and also a Sainsbury-shop).

    Budget chicken nuggets were sold out at Tesco Walton today, for the second day in a row.

    When I walked in to the shop, a security guard placed himself between me and the shopping-baskets, with his behind towards me.

    He was completely un-aware of that I wanted a basket.

    (Or he pretended to be unaware).

    Is it right that security-guards in Tesco tidy the shopping-baskets?

    Isn’t that a ‘normal’ Tesco-staff-job?

    I ask that because the security guard seemed to lack basic customer-service skills, like being aware of a customer that walks into the shop, (of whom half of them wants a basket, or something like that).

    It’s hard for me to belive this security-guard.

    Was he acting in-polite and provocing me, I’m wondering.

    Also you have changed packaging on your budget orange juice which you sell from the ‘milk-department’, (that is the type you sell from a fridge).

    Also, I tried to complain to the woman in the check-out that the chicken nuggets were sold out.

    But she didn’t answer me at all.

    Before she waited for a long time, before giving me the receipt.

    (This was at 21.13, it says on the receipt).

    Also, most of your cashiers are standing in their tills.

    As an experienced cashier I wonder why they don’t want to sit on their chairs.

    Is this something cultural, I’m wondering.

    Regards,

    Erik Ribsskog PS. And to Sainsbury’s in Rice Lane. You closed your self-service tills at around 21.15, (I think it was), on Wednesday.


    Why do you close them early, I’m wondering.

And Storebrand had a profit of NOK 1471 million, in 2010, it says. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storebrand And Tesco had a net income of £124 million, it says. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesco So Tesco had a lower profit, even if Tesco has 537 784 employees. And Storebrand has 2160 employees. That says something about that Tesco aren’t that well run, I think. Could it be the problem with the baskets? Erik Ribsskog

    Hi, I’ve studied Information Management in Norway, for two years, in the late
    80’s and early 90’s. And as part of a Management/Organisation-module there, I contacted the big
    Norwegian insurance-company UNI Storebrand, and they sent me their
    organisation-map. They are also a big company, so I don’t buy this. I don’t need a very detailed organisation-map. A general one would be ok, then I would at least get the overview on how

    Hi,
    ok, I’ve noticed that the staff in this Post Office doesn’t always give you all the receipts, if you buy both buy electricity and e.g. pay a giro.

    So I sometimes only try to do one errand per visit, at that post office.


    And that’s why I ended up in the other Post Office, in County Rd., some weeks ago. (After they have now refurbished, and gotten a proper sign, etc.

    Because a part of their Post Office-sign had fallen down.


    And it said Pet Shop, (or something), since it used to be a shop there earlier, one could see, around the time I moved back to Walton, in May last year). And then a guy was standing outside this Post Office drinking a can of beer.


    And he suddenly went inside the Post Office, and right to a window, not caring about the queue.
    So this was odd, I think.

    Maybe this was what they call street theater?

    This incident seemed strange to me, at least. Why don’t they manage the queue, at that Post Office? And I’ve worked in retail for many years, and haven’t seen customers acting like that in the shops I’ve worked in.

    If they drink they usually drink after they’ve done they’re errands, (and not before), I think, (as a type of general rule), if I’m not mistaking. But none of the Post Office-staff told this beer-drinking-guy to stand in line.

    This was a bit strange incident, I think.

    Aren’t the Post Office supposed to manage the queue? And why doesn’t the Post Office e.g. call the Police when someone are standing drinking outside their branch in the afternoon?

    Hi,
    yes, the woman who didn’t do the certificates rights, was named Sue, by the
    way, her college said. I was there at around 5 PM, and at the same time Royal Mail was there to
    collect the post, so when I complained, the packets had been collected
    already, I think. Perhaps that’s why they couldn’t make the certificates again. I haven’t seen the Sue-woman there before. Normally it’s the woman who has been to Western Norway on a cruise from
    Southampton, (she told me once, probably since I sent a lot of post to
    Norway), and also another woman with amputated fingers, for some reason. I started going to this post office, (and not the other one in County
    Road), because the other Post Office’s sign, had fallen down, when I moved
    to Walton again, a bit more than a year ago. Just something more I thought about after reading your e-mail from today. Best regards, Erik Ribsskog

    Hi,
    ok, I don’t understand why you don’t fill up the self-service check out machines with enough coins at the start of the day? Or why don’t you refill one machine at the time?

    (In stead of closing the whole department?). This seems strange to me.

    If you have a self service department, then that should be open, when the store is open, I think.

    I used to shop at the big Sainsbury in Kensington, (the one with a Starbucks cafe), for around a week, in February, in 2005.

    And they didn’t tell me then that these types of departments weren’t going to be open for all the hours the store is open. This seems strange, I think.

    And in the staffed till that day some boys with bikes, (I think it was), forgot a plastic-bottle of milk.

    When they were in that till before me.

    (Because that was the till with the shortest queue). I thought this was strange. And the female Cashier was  unaware so I had to tell her that someone had forgotten their milk.


    And she ran after the boys. So it’s easier to shop in the self-service tills I think. I’m from Norway and there they use a kind of divider, so that customers have longer time, to pack their goods, in the staffed tills.

    That’s one of the reasons I like the self-service-tills, because then you don’t get the next customers goods mixed with your own goods.

    So I think it’s strange that you sometimes close the self service department early.


    If you have a department like that it should be open as long as the store is open, I think.

    I’ve never seen this at Asda, that they close the self-service-department early. Erik Ribsskog
    PS. I send a copy e-mail to Tesco, since they haven’t replied yet, to my complaint about them. Tesco Walton doesn’t have a self-service department, for some reason. So there it’s a bit stressing to shop, I think.

    And your cashiers, at Sainsburys Rice Lane, they don’t stand in their tills, like the cashiers at Tesco Walton. Since you have chairs, in your tills, I guess the reason is.

    And you at Sainsbury’s only have one type of shopping-baskets.

    Where as Tesco Walton has three different types, (which doesn’t mix/stock, even if they are more or less the same size). They have some dark blue baskets, some less dark blue baskets, and some metal-baskets, which looks more or less like Sainsbury’s baskets in Rice Lane, I think. So I think enough ‘strange stuff’ is going on, at Tesco Walton. So I don’t like it when Sainsbury’s Rice Lane starts to do ‘strange stuff’ as well. Just as an update.

    Dear Mr Ribsskog


    Thank you for your email.  I am sorry that when you visited our Rice Lane store recently our self scanner checkouts closed early and you were wondering why this happens.


    We always aim to exceed our customers’ expectations and we use customers’ feedback to continually improve our products and services.


    I called the store and spoke to Diane Colligan, Checkout Team Leader.  Diane explained that the reason the self scanner checkouts were switched off was to allow them to remove the money cassettes as they were empty and refill them.  Diane apologises for any inconvenience caused.


    I hope this information is helpful.  We appreciate you taking the time to email us and we hope to see you in store again soon.

    Hi,

    today I was at Tesco Walton again, (and also a Sainsbury-shop).

    Budget chicken nuggets were sold out at Tesco Walton today, for the second day in a row.

    When I walked in to the shop, a security guard placed himself between me and the shopping-baskets, with his behind towards me.

    He was completely un-aware of that I wanted a basket.

    (Or he pretended to be unaware).

    Is it right that security-guards in Tesco tidy the shopping-baskets?

    Isn’t that a ‘normal’ Tesco-staff-job?

    I ask that because the security guard seemed to lack basic customer-service skills, like being aware of a customer that walks into the shop, (of whom half of them wants a basket, or something like that).

    It’s hard for me to belive this security-guard.

    Was he acting in-polite and provocing me, I’m wondering.

    Also you have changed packaging on your budget orange juice which you sell from the ‘milk-department’, (that is the type you sell from a fridge).

    Also, I tried to complain to the woman in the check-out that the chicken nuggets were sold out.

    But she didn’t answer me at all.

    Before she waited for a long time, before giving me the receipt.

    (This was at 21.13, it says on the receipt).

    Also, most of your cashiers are standing in their tills.

    As an experienced cashier I wonder why they don’t want to sit on their chairs.

    Is this something cultural, I’m wondering.

    Regards,

    Erik Ribsskog PS. And to Sainsbury’s in Rice Lane. You closed your self-service tills at around 21.15, (I think it was), on Wednesday.


    Why do you close them early, I’m wondering.

And Storebrand had a profit of NOK 1471 million, in 2010, it says. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storebrand And Tesco had a net income of £124 million, it says. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesco So Tesco had a lower profit, even if Tesco has 537 784 employees. And Storebrand has 2160 employees. That says something about that Tesco aren’t that well run, I think. Could it be the problem with the baskets? Erik Ribsskog

    Hi, I’ve studied Information Management in Norway, for two years, in the late
    80’s and early 90’s. And as part of a Management/Organisation-module there, I contacted the big
    Norwegian insurance-company UNI Storebrand, and they sent me their
    organisation-map. They are also a big company, so I don’t buy this. I don’t need a very detailed organisation-map. A general one would be ok, then I would at least get the overview on how

    Hei,
    kanskje du kan spørre menigheten da vet du.

    Jeg skjønner jo det at dere har en menighet med sikkert noen gamle travere fra den tidligere frikirken i Larvik også.

    Og Furfjord svarer du heller ikke om.


    Han er jo i kirken deres nå står det på nettsidene deres.
    Jeg har en kusine som heter Heidi Olsen fra Son, som sier at hun er en bimbo. Men ærlig talt, hu svarer da ikke på e-postene for en frikirke.
    (Såvidt jeg vet ihvertfall). Erik Ribsskog PS. Jeg sender kopi til frikirken i Brunlanes. Kanskje disse vet mer om dette. De har visst folk som de kaller ‘eldste’. Kanskje en av frikirkene i Larvik kommune, har noen eldste som kjenner historia til den nå nedlagte frikirken i hovedbyen?

    2013/8/13 Ane Gunhild Anthonisen Sveen <anegunhild@stavernfrikirke.no>

    Hei!
    Vi har mottatt eposten fra deg, angående opplysninger om din oppvekst i Larvik. Dessverre har jeg ikke mulighet til å hjelpe deg med dette, da jeg ikke har opplysninger om de personene du nevner.

    Jeg ønsker deg lykke til videre!
    Ane G. Sveen, Stavern frikirke.
    31. juli 2013 kl. 21:48 skrev Erik Ribsskog <eribsskog@gmail.com>:
    Hei,
    jeg bodde hos mora mi, (Karen Ribsskog), i Jegersborggate, i Larvik, på slutten av 70-tallet.


    En gang, så ‘fant’ søstera mi Pia, Frode Kølner, (fra Trygves gate), og meg, to prestebarn, på vår alder, (jeg er født i 1970), på den andre siden av Nansetgata.


    Jeg har ikke noe kontakt med søstera mi og Kølner for tiden, men jeg fant noen skriverer på Origo-gruppen ‘Larvik i nær fortid’, om at Larvik frikirke lå i ‘Lia’.

    Og jeg lurer på om det må ha vært sønnen og datteren, (ei langt mørkt hår), til frikirke-presten.


    De bodde i etasjen under kirken, sa de.

    (Noe sånt).

    Og de satt på bak på syklene våre, bort til Arvesen-gården, hvor Frode Kølner, Pia og meg pleide å leke, med masse andre under, (som bodde rundt sykehuset).

    En annen gang så var Frode Kølner og jeg i bursdagen til han prestesønnen. Dette var etter at jeg hadde flytta til faren min, på Bergeråsen.

    Men jeg pleide noen ganger å være på helgebesøk i Larvik, for å besøke mora mi, (eller Frode Kølner og dem, på den tida som mora mi bodde i Drammen).
    Jeg lurte på hva disse prestebarna, (som vi nesten kidnappa, for skøy), het igjen. Det er jo så populært i våre dager, å skrive om gamle dager. Så jeg har skrevet memoarer og lurt på dette. (Dette var på slutten 70-tallet/begynnelsen av 80-tallet.

    Og kirken/presteboligen var den i Johan Sverdrupsgate 3, mistenker jeg ihvertfall, etter å ha lest på lokalhistorie-Wikipedia, for Larvik). Håper dere har oversikten, for det stod på Larvik i Nær Fortid, (hvor jeg ikke fikk til å skrive nå, av en eller annen grunn), at den kirken deres i Larvik ble slått sammen med frikirken i Stavern, (eller noe lignende), da den ble solgt.
    På forhånd takk for svar! Mvh. Erik Ribsskog PS. Så også på nettsiden deres at en herr Furfjord var med i kirken deres. Er det faren til Hege Furfjord fra Stavern som jeg møtte på danskebåen Petter Wessel en gang, skoleåret 1988/89? (Jeg var russ i Drammen, men bodde på Bergeråsen.

    Og hadde kommet inn på en samarbeidsavtale mellom Vestfold og Buskerud, siden jeg hadde gode karakterer.

    Og Magne Winnem, fra Røyken, i den nye klassen, i Drammen, dro meg med på Danmarkstur da).

    Bare lurte. Ser at hu Hege Furfjord jobber i Oslo nå. Møtte også Hege Furfjord et par år seinere, da jeg var på sommerferie-besøk hos min mormor Ingeborg Ribsskog, (som snakka dansk), i Stavern. Kjenner også Cathrine Gran, som bodde i et stort hvitt hus litt utafor Stavern, på 70-tallet. Mora mi var venninne med mora hennes. Og min tante Ellen Savoldelli f. Ribsskog, har flytta til Stavern nå, fra Sveits, i ‘hippie-ekteskap’ med Didrik Beichmann fra forsøksgym, osv. Og de tuller nå med arven min, etter bestemor Ingeborg. Siden jeg flyktet til England for snart ti år siden etter å ha overhørt at jeg var forfulgt av ‘mafian’, og jeg ble forsøkt drept da jeg var på min onkel Martin Ribsskog sin samboer Grete Ingebrigtsen sin gård i Kvelde. Så det er mye rart, så jeg tenkte kanskje at disse prestebarna visste noe mer om hvordan det gikk med søstera mi Pia, i Larvik, etter at jeg flytta til faren min, på Bergeråsen, tre-fire år før søstera mi Pia også flytta til min far, (selv om han da hadde flytta fra meg, og til ei dame på Bergeråsen ved navn Haldis Humblen). Så det er mye rart, så jeg prøver å få tak i folk fra oppveksen min osv., da. Håper dette er i orden!

    Hi,
    I just thought I’d send an e-mail regarding yesterdays meeting while I remember it.

    When I was unemployed in Sunderland, in 2011, Anita Ford there said it was ‘insane’ to apply for more than two jobs a week.


    But you want me to apply for like ten jobs a day, (or something), it seems.

    (Even if there aren’t that many jobs around, I think).

    So I’m now not sure what the norm is, for number of jobs to apply for, each day.


    Also, you told me I can’t apply for jobs in Leyland and Chorley. But this is because I try to apply for one job a day.

    Because that’s my goal, from the jobseekers agreement.
    (Even if this is more than they think is normal, in Sunderland, they told me). I think when it says 90 minutes travel-time in the jobseekers-agreement.

    Then it’s meant that I’m obligated to look for work within 90 minutes travel-time.

    It doesn’t mean I’m restricted to only apply for work within 90 minutes travel-time. (Also the trains to Leyland sometimes only use about an hour, I saw on the internet.

    And I set the Universal Jobmatch to look for jobs, in a 20 mile radius.

    It doesn’t have a 15 mile radius option.
    Only a 10 mile one.
    And then it doesn’t find the jobs in Chester and Manchester, I think). It seemed like you meant that I wasn’t allowed to apply for jobs in Leyland.

    (In the meeting yesterday).

    That there is some kind of rule forbidding me to do this.

    Surely there is no restriction like that? Just something I wondered about.

    Also TK Maxx is American, I checked it on the internet. And you wondered if a bus goes to the Aintree mall. After I explained that I went with Merseyrail there, when I went to the Maplin-store, near Aintree racecourse-ground.
    I checked on the map now, and it’s just a couple of kilometers from the Jobcentre, so it’s possible to walk there as well. And I know there is a bus that goes to the Jobcentre in Aintree, (at least), from Walton, so that shouldn’t be a problem. You wanted me to tell the college that I’m unemployed, in the interview with them. But in the last meeting you mentioned possible founding, from the jobcentre. This you didn’t mention in yesterdays meeting, I noticed.
    So you have changed your mind about founding for the CAD-course?
    Also, you asked me if the weather was ‘clammy’ yesterday.


    It says the humidity is 87 percent today, (if that’s what you meant). Just in case I forgot about this.

    Since you’re going on a holiday, and the next appointment is in September. Best regards,

    Erik Ribsskog

  • Det var også sånn, den tida som jeg jobba, som butikksjef, i Rimi.

    (I tilfelle jeg har glemt å skrive det tidligere).

    At folk som regionsjef Jon Bekkevoll og vel også distriktsjef Anne-Katrine Skodvin, (hvis jeg husker det riktig).

    De sa det, at å jobbe som butikksjef, i Rimi, det var som å jobbe som administrerende direktør, (var det vel de sa), i et mellomstort norsk firma.

    Siden man hadde ansvaret for å motivere et team, (må man vel kalle dem), på opptill 20-30 ansatte, da.

    Og også hadde ansvaret for at alle budsjettene, for butikken, ble overholdt.

    Så sånn var det.

    Bare noe jeg tenkte på.

    Men men.

    Nå var det jo selvfølgelig sånn, at en Rimi-butikksjef, kun fikk en brøkdel av den lønnen, som en administrerende direktør, i næringslivet, fikk.

    Men Rimi-butikksjefer, de ble det nok til en viss grad forventet av, at de skulle ha en garderobe, noe lignende av en administrerende direktør, i næringslivet.

    Og også en bil, i nærheten av hva en næringslivsleder har.

    Ihvertfall så merka jeg dette, en gang, da jeg gikk ut på byen, i genser.

    (Mens jeg jobba som butikksjef, på Rimi Kalbakken).

    Da overhørte jeg det, at Anne Neteland sin ambulerende, Idar, (het han vel muligens), liksom tiska om, med min assistent Kjetil Prestegarden, (var det vel), om at jeg som butikksjef, burde gå med skjorte, på byen.

    (Noe sånt).

    Så man ble liksom forventet å ha en fasade, som en næringslivs-leder.

    Men man fikk kun en lønn som var som en vanlig norsk gjennomsnittslønn, liksom.

    Man fikk vel en del mindre betalt, (som butikksjef), enn en platearbeider, fra Mo i Rana, fikk i lønn, (hvis jeg skulle tippe, ihvertfall).

    Og mye mindre betalt, enn en som jobba, i Nordsjøen, (for eksempel).

    Og sikkert mye mindre betalt enn en rørlegger, (hvis jeg skulle tippe).

    Og Rimi var også dårligere på lønn, enn alle de andre kjedene, (husker jeg å ha lest, i aviser og bransjeblader).

    Butikksjef Tom, fra ‘Tom-gjengen’, i Lørenskog.

    Han var butikksjef i Kiwi, like ved der jeg bodde, på St. Hanshaugen.

    Og de leste jeg om, i nyhetene, (var det vel), at fikk grovt regnet cirka det dobbelte i lønn, (når man tok med bonus, var det vel), enn butikksjefene, som jobbet i Rimi, da.

    Så egentlig, så var det lite som var noe særlig gjevt, i Rimi, da.

    Ihvertfall når det gjaldt lønn.

    Og hvorfor Rimi lønnet sine butikksjefer lavere enn for eksempel Rema og Kiwi.

    Det veit jeg ikke.

    Men jeg hadde litt flaks, siden jeg fikk lov til å leie, en ganske billig hybel-leilighet, av Rimi.

    En hybel-leilighet som lå ganske sentralt, i Oslo indre by, da.

    Så dette veiet nok litt opp, for den relativt lave lønnen, som jeg fikk, som Rimi-butikksjef.

    Men det kostet jo penger, å prøve å holde oppe fasaden, (som butikksjef/toppleder).

    Så det var ikke sånn at jeg klarte å spare opp noe særlig med penger, i løpet av disse snaue fire årene, som jeg jobbet, som butikksjef.

    Mye penger gikk til klær og bil osv., på disse årene, da.

    Og jeg hadde jo en halvbror, (nemlig Axel), som jobbet, i utelivsbransjen.

    Og når han ba meg med ut på byen.

    Så handlet jo det litt om å liksom holde fasaden da og, (må man vel si).

    Så da måtte jeg liksom være kar da, og ha en bunke hundrelapper, i lommeboka, sånn at jeg kunne betale for minst min del, av halvliterne, da.

    Siden jeg var butikksjef, osv.

    Så var det vanskelig å si nei, til å være med ut, på byen.

    Jeg kunne ikke skylde på at jeg ikke hadde råd ihvertfall, syntes jeg.

    For det ville vel vært nesten som en skandale.

    Hvis en butikksjef hadde vært blakk, liksom.

    Så sånn var det.

    Bare noe jeg tenkte på.

    Men men.

    En gang Axel dro meg med på Studenten, (må det vel ha vært), rundt årtusenskiftet en gang, (eller noe sånt), så skjedde det noe rart, husker jeg.

    Jeg satt på en stol, (eller om det var en barkrakk), nede i kjelleren, på Studenten der, (husker jeg).

    (Nedenfor en vindeltrapp, vel.

    Noe sånt).

    Og plutselig, (mens Axel var på do, vel).

    Så satt det seg ei pen dame, (i 18-20 års alderen kanskje), på fanget mitt, (uten å si noe), husker jeg.

    Hu var der sammen med minst ei venninne, (husker jeg).

    Og etter at hu dama hadde sitti på fanget mitt, i et visst antall minutter.

    (Mens jeg var ganske full, da.

    For dette var vel ganske seint, en natt til søndag, tror jeg).

    Og mens hu venninna, liksom ‘scannet’ trynet mitt, da.

    Så forsvant disse to-tre damene.

    Like raskt som de hadde dukket opp der, da.

    Og Axel dukket opp igjen, fra doen, (elller hvor han hadde vært), da.

    Så sånn var det.

    Bare noe jeg tenkte på.

    Men men.

    Og jeg var jo rimelig full.

    Og det var vel muligens en stund siden, at jeg hadde vært sammen med, en sexy dame.

    (Det må vel ha vært ti år før det her, eller noe.

    Da jeg var sammen med hu Laila Johansen, fra Skøyen).

    Så jeg ble litt kåt og jentegæren da, (må man vel si).

    Av å ha hu unge og slanke dama, på fanget, i fylla, da.

    Så da jeg gikk oppover Karl Johan.

    (I retning av Oslo S.).

    Etter at jeg hadde kommet meg ut av Studenten, og fått sagt ‘hadet’, til Axel, da.

    Da var jeg rimelig full og kåt, (husker jeg).

    Og det her var om vinteren, (mener jeg å huske).

    Så damene i Karl Johan hadde en del klær på seg da, (mener jeg å huske).

    Men plutselig så så jeg ei ung dame, som gikk rett mot meg, med jakka åpen.

    Og med en gjennomsiktig, hvit topp under, da.

    Og dette var bare ei fjortiss-dame.

    (Hvis jeg skulle tippe, ihvertfall).

    Men dette var cirka klokka fire, en natt til søndag, (hvis jeg ikke tar helt feil).

    Og dette var også midt i gågate-delen av Karl Johan, da.

    Så jeg reagerte, på hu unge dama, med den gjennomsiktige toppen da, (husker jeg).

    Siden at de Studenten-damene hadde gjort meg så kåt, da.

    (Og siden at jeg hadde drukket rimelig mange halvlitere også, da).

    Og jeg kom i snakk med hu unge dama da. (husker jeg).

    Og hu så etter en utlending, (husker jeg).

    Og da ble jeg litt bekymra for hu unge dama, (husker jeg).

    For hvorfor leita ei norsk fjortiss-dame.

    (Som ikke hadde fått pupper engang).

    Etter en utlending, i Karl Johan, seint en natt til søndag.

    Nei, det endte med at jeg sa at hu unge jenta, at hu kunne få sitte på hjem med meg, i en taxi.

    For hu bodde i Tromsøgata, sa hu.

    Og den gata visste jeg jo godt hvor var.

    For der bodde jo søstera mi Pia.

    (Og hu hadde bodd der, i 5-6 år vel, på den her tida.

    I to forskjellige leiligheter.

    Som begge lå, (litt fra hverandre), i Tromsøgata, da).

    Og da taxien kom fram, til Tromsøgata.

    (Som ikke var en så utrolig stor omvei, fra der jeg selv bodde).

    Så var jeg fortsatt rimelig full og kåt da, (husker jeg).

    Og syntes nok at det var litt kjedelig, å måtte dra hjem alene, fra byen, etter å liksom ha hatt draget, på ei fin dame, på Studenten der, (en time eller noe sånt tidligere), da.

    Så jeg prøvde å overtale hu unge dama, til å bli med hjem til meg, til St. Hanshaugen da, (husker jeg).

    Men hu ville ikke det da, (husker jeg).

    Så jeg sa til slutt til hu dama, at det var greit, at hu bare gikk ut av drosjen, (uten å betale noe på drosjeregninga), da.

    For hu dama var jo rimelig ung, når jeg tenker på det.

    Selv om jeg jo var rimelig full, denne kvelden.

    Og hu dama jo hadde på seg en gjennomsiktig topp.

    Som jeg reagerte litt på, (husker jeg), siden alle de andre damene, på byen, gikk med kåper og sånn, da.

    Og siden disse Studenten-damene liksom hadde gjort meg så kåt og gæern da, (for å si det sånn).

    Men jeg kom liksom til fornuften, i taxien der, da.

    (Til slutt ihvertfall).

    Og lot hu unge dama, bare få gå ut av drosjen, da.

    Selv om den pakistanske drosjesjåføren, (som var i 40-åra kanskje vel), av en eller annen grunn begynte å blande seg.

    Og ville at hu unge dama skulle bli med hjem til meg, (på St. Hanshaugen), da.

    (Av en eller annen grunn).

    Men jeg kunne ikke tvinge hu unge dama til det, syntes jeg.

    Så jeg sa at hu bare kunne gå ut av drosjen, da.

    Siden hu var så ung, og ikke ville bli med heller, liksom.

    Så sånn var det.

    Bare noe jeg tenkte på.

    Men men.

    Det var fortsatt mye mer som hendte, den tida som jeg bodde, på St. Hanshaugen.

    Og dette tenkte jeg at jeg skulle prøve å få skrevet mer om, i de neste kapitlene, av Min Bok 5.

    Så vi får se om jeg klarer å få til det.

    Vi får se.

    PS.

    Det var vel forresten ikke om vinteren det, at jeg traff hu unge fjortiss-dama, seint en natt til søndag, i Karl Johan.

    For jeg gikk vel selv bare med en tennis-skjorte på meg, mener jeg å huske.

    Men hu fjortiss-dama var ihvertfall mye mer sexy kledd, enn de andre damene, i Karl Johan, den her kvelden da, (mener jeg å huske).

  • Jeg var på et møte på the Jobcentre i dag, (mandag), med Personal Advisor Sarah.

    Og hun sa noe som jeg synes er underlig.

    Jeg kunne ikke søke på jobber i Leyland, for det står på min Jobseekers Agreement at jeg skal søke på jobber innenfor 90 minutters reisetid.

    Og Leyland lå langt unna, mente hun.

    Men da snur hun ting på hodet, mener jeg.

    For det betyr at jeg må se søke på jobber, som ligger inntill 90 minutters reisetid, fra der jeg bor.

    Men hvis jeg vil, så kan jeg jo selvfølgelig søke på jobber, som ligger lenger unna.

    Så dette undrer meg nå, dette som Personal Advisor Sarah sa, i møtet i dag.

    Så sånn er det.

    Bare noe jeg tenkte på.

    Men men.

    Mvh.
