Cooking

[Gandalf]

You can only cook if you have the time though and when people start work early and come home late as many do, then you are just never going to have time. An hour long lunch break is enough time to go to the canteen and back to the desk and home after rush hour traffic means the last thing tired people want to do is cook. I don't blame some people for not having great cooking skills as they generally have skills in other places and have people cooking for them instead. I am a better cook than my wife, but it is only because I am less busy. Even on my busy days the best I can do is finish a 7 hour shift and heat up a tin of soup and slice up some bread. It is nothing to do with a lack of character, but is rather one of the symptoms of contemporary capitalism. Ideally people could stay home and cook and be with loved ones, but it's just not going to happen short of a revolution. I see union rights are next to go. Jump, jump, jump higher and fall a long way if you cannot keep up. Be thankful for a rasher of bacon, ye peasants.
