back in Fukuoka

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Fukuoka, 2024.06.03

I've decided to take a break from constantly changing the water of tiny baby goldfish. I've taken an early train and fetched up in Fukuoka to visit with my staff in this city. I guess it'll be a quarterly affair as long as I have this job (om nom cold oatmeal). I do like it here, it's only 1.5 million people and it feels like a good size. The weather is perfect and the small office we've set up seems to be gelling nicely. All is well.

In our society, there seems a general rule that, the more obviously one's work benefits other people, the less one is likely to be paid for it.
