A gloomy November mood. The wind sweeps wet leaves through Hamburg’s streets, the cold creeps up my spine and before I can even take my coat off at the checkroom, I hear two voices from the conference room: “Have you heard about Jasper’s new idea?” “Oh that, it’s no good anyway.” “I don’t think it’ll ever work. Well, I’m not going along with it anyway.” Phew, I think, another gathering of self-confessed negaholics Where do some people get the unshakeable certainty that everything always goes wrong? Mustn’t that be terribly exhausting? Well, maybe not. After all, if nothing works anyway, there’s no need to make an effort. So perhaps a little bit of pessimism is quite practical at times.
