Cool blog(s)!

This is one of the best sets of new blogs I've seen in a while:

Waiter Rant from a real waiter

Cook Rant from a real cook

Clublife from a real bouncer

This is so much better than individual bloggers, like myself, who randomly comment on topics with no more knowledge than anyone else. The nice part about these blogs is that these viewpoints are the inside view, with knowledge that can only be acquired and passed on BY DOING THE JOB. I love it (needless to say subscribed^3).

I'm not sure I could ever replicate this in my current job. I'd love to blog about meetings I have, work I do and other job related "goodness", but it's very difficult to imagine how this won't get me in some sort of trouble, either formally or informally (because people will start hating me). Maybe I'll start up an anonymous blog and go nuts.

[Update] Changed bad grammar and improved clarity of language... bad Dave!

Some can write about what they do and make others want to read about it. Some can write about what they do and make others consider lives of non-blogging austerity, perhaps in a cabin with an outhouse. Still more of us just skip the whole "doing" thing altogether and write about what other people write in their blogs. We each have our little niche in the greater whole (or something deep and philisophical). Cue the uplifting music.

Or weblogs really are the cheapest of ultimate narcisstic activities.
