Vogon Bypasses

Sometimes life hands you a Vogon Bypass.
If you recall, in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy a Vogon demolition armada turned up to destroy the earth for a hyperspace bypass. There were no words that the humans could say that wolud stop them, no logic that would be listened to, no reprieve.

I think am over the worst hump of dealing with a Vogon Bypass in my life. And I have decided that's a good term, and way to look at totally freaking unreasonable crap that has to be dealt with NOW, and there is no logic involved in why, and no way to make it stop. All I could do was buffer myself as best I can, which took me a lot of very painful physical labor and more money than I had to spare. There is still a lot of work to do now to deal with the fallout from it all, but the stuff that had to be done NOW is done, I can pace the rest, and it will probably take me several months to do.

So my thought here is I vote we use the term Vogon Bypass to describe unreasonable crap that comes out of nowhere and cannot be fixed by logic, and maybe it'll make it easier to cope with it all, knowing it's Vogons, it's unreasonable, and all we can do is cope accordingly.

Hugs!

I've got a couple coming up on the shop side next year. I'm hoping I can dodge them, but one at least is looking as if I'll have to find a way of complying.

The worst is that they are both good ideas - at least on paper, it's just that being the one to actually implement the 'one size fits all' legislation in my tiny store is going to be ....tricky to say the least!
