Introduction

Welcome my friends and fellow grumblers to the first edition of The Barney Grumble! I along with my two colleagues have created this forum to basically share our annoyances with the world. We call it “grumbling”. Wait, I know what you are thinking - "this already sounds stupid". Sure, knock it, sock it, whatever…we’ll just add you to our list. If you can see beyond my empty threat, you’ll notice that we do welcome your feedback and comments. In fact, we strongly encourage it. Please post your ridiculously controversial comments, I mean unless you are afraid to grumble yourself. In any case, it will most likely follow with more comments angrily insulting the initial post...and as soon as you know it, the site will have paid for itself. We just need to figure out how to actually make money, understand the Enron-omics of our business.

Our grumbles will comprise of poorly written, horribly grammatical rambles about our annoying experiences in three different lives. I am an unemployed business professional that has been referred to as a "corporate sell-out" or "cube monkey". Our cast also includes a pony-tail wearing, professorship-hunting, graduate student and a non-profit consultant who is trying to save the world from the inside-out (good luck).

Along our journeys, we have managed to meet excruciatingly eccentric, obnoxious, hilarious or uber-bizarre people. Some of which oddly became our friends. We’d like to say their inspiration helped evolve our thoughts here at The Grumble….but that would just be a lie. In fact, we will take every chance we get to mock, expose and complain about everyone and anything we know. Why? Because there is just so much to grumble about…
