What is the point of geese?

Remind me not to drive the car to work. A journey of two and a half miles that takes me just over ten minutes to cycle, took three quarters of an hour this evening!!
Why do people do it?
And I felt so tense when I got in it really wasn't worth the effort.
I so hate carrying 'stuff'.

Similar experience in the car yesterday afternoon coming back from the Cruise Terminal. It took me an hour and a half to put up the six displays in the Departure Lounge. An image broken into six sections, all clipped and clamped together. Geese in flight. With a similar message suggesting that no other cruise company goes further to give you a wonderful holiday experience.
That's it.
Something that has no value whatsoever to the people viewing it. I can't see how the presence of that image enhanced anyone's holiday experience.
All it does is promote a brand, subconsciously planting the image in people's consciousness so that the cruise company can make more money.
Totally pointless.
And yet the cruise company paid us a four figure sum for the presence there.

I need to get over this.

A PCC meeting accompanied by blackbird song has gone someway towards adjusting my perspective.
