Sleeping on the Job Again

A few months ago I was out for an early morning run when I saw through the dim lights at a water station a man asleep on the job. I did not have my camera so I ran as fast as I could back home, got my camera, and biked back to take a few snaps.




Isn't he adorable? Sleeping like a baby. Thankfully no one saw me and I sped off as quietly as I arrived. 

A few days later I saw him sleeping again so I again whipped out the camera, which I had with me this time around, and took a few snaps.




This time I was caught! The second picture is the guy waking up to his fellow employee shouting and pointing at me! I ran like the wind back home laughing all the way. I changed my route for the next few weeks because I did not want any trouble but soon enough I was back that way and what did I see? You guessed it. The same man asleep!


The difference this time was that they had turned out the lights so no one could see into the area. But I saw him because I was looking for him. If you notice in the above pictures the lights are on but in this picture I had to use my flash.

I have been back that way more than a few times since and have not seen anyone sleeping.

As a bonus have this picture of a 24 hour sari-sari store with the owner lying down in bed.

Season's Greetings!

Happy Valentine.......I mean Merry Christmas!



Hold on let me get a clearer view because that nest of electrical wires is blocking everything.


There we go. 

Merry Christmas everyone! Is this a case of laziness, forgetfulness, or something else? Cherry Mobile is renting these billboards but do they not have time to coordinate their ad campaigns to be seasonly appropriate? Where is the Valentine's Day ad? These pictures were taken on February 12th. I know Christmas starts early in the Philippines but this is a little too early.

And those electrical wires!  Don't get me started. So thick and low that you can't see the billboard and in some cases you can't see the traffic lights either.  No wonder traffic here is slow.  With all the low hanging wires no one can tell if the light has changed.
