Hardiman the Partyman stays true to himself
[permalink]

I was thoroughly impressed the other day when I received an email from Richard Hardiman. Having spent some time working at Forwardslash, it seemed that things had finally come to a head. In a very conservative Old Mutualy move, Forwardslash decided to block their employees' access to the bastion of all things good and relevant, 2oceansvibe. I can hear your gasps....[bless you] For a new age company it does seem QUITE bizarre. Hardiman had had enough and decided to call it a day. As with most well structured companies, Forwardslash requires it's ex-employees to undergo an "exit interview." in the section marked "reasons for leaving," our boy cited (in bold caps) that his biggest reason for leaving was the fact that 2oceansvibe was blocked on the server and he could no longer continue living like that.

It was returned by HR who laughed it off and asked if he, seriously, would like to amend it.

He declined.

Sensational!

Once featured as Mr. July in a 2006 Cosmo calendar, Hardiman decided that his job was not indicative of the 2oceansvibe mantra, "Work is a sideline, live the holiday" and has opted for his preferred post of DJ for 3 hours a day (3pm - 6pm) at Cape Town's number one radio station, Kfm 94.5.

Now that makes MUCH more sense, Harders. That can certainly NOT be termed "work."

Easily the worst photograph
ever taken of Harders.
Really, he's not really like this.

With The DJ live on air on every week morning 6am to 9am, and Harders from 3pm - 6pm, Kfm is forming a close-to-seamless non-norm lineup.

So there you have it! Finally, the perfect answer to the drivel we have been served in the afternoon by 5fm's "DJ Fresh", who honestly believes that the ostensibly intelligent fart that comes out of his mouth is actually going to wash with us. Give it up, Fresh. You're a DJ, not a DJ. You're like a Lamborghini kit car. We're not buying that bullshit.

You're a fake.

Cheers.
