About impending doom

precipitating the apocalypse since 1989

From leaving the 20th century:

Recently, in France, a certain Bernard Durin killed himself - apparently without reason. He was 37 years old and had been a model employee for the last fifteen of them. Everyone who knew him agreed that "he had everything one needs to be happy. he had a ten year old daughter, Agnes, who got on well at school. A charming wife. A good job at IBM. A salary of F2,500 a month. An attractively furnished modern apartment. A 404. A television, washing machine, a refrigerator and even an aquarium.
In an article in France-Soir (24 dec 1964), Charles Caron wrote: ''The shop where Durin worked was situated in a multi storey, glass fronted building. His section consisted largely of small metal offices. Shelves stretched out of sight. Metal shelves. Metal filing cabinets. It was there that the spare parts Durin sorted out and packaged up were kept.
No windows. Neon light. His timetable was irregular. The shop was open from seven in the morning until twelve at night. His shift was changed every fortnight. Sometimes he got up at five-thirty in the morning and finished at four in the afternoon. Sometimes he finished at one in the morning. Durin was a model employee. No one worked harder. Someone suggested he take a postal course in English. He did so. He studied in the evening. He studied on Saturday and Sunday…when he left the shop in Vincennes, Durin drove back to his home in Bondy in his 404. He drove in the queues of traffic you all know. He waited in the traffic jams. He saw the lights of the tower blocks of Bondy. The straight lines. The concrete. The shopping centre in the middle. He lived in apartment number 1153, 13 rue Leon-Blum, FG3. That was his life: electronics, skyscraper housing estates, cars, refrigerators and televisions. It was also his death.''
