I haven't time at the moment to look at them both closely to compare, but it did occur to me that in large parts of the world, clinical depression would be either unrecognised or under-diagnosed.
The wellbeing map seems to have been drawn up by asking simple questions about what people did or felt at particular times which could be answered anywhere

I haven't seen anything anywhere about the person being hit so no news is good news I assume?
Incidentally I would question the accuracy of the happiness map with regard to Ireland. I suspect the Irish responses to whatever standard questions may have been asked were probably something like "ah sure I'm/it's grand" or some variation thereof. This is a somewhat generic response that is not alway true.

My day was ok but the end of it was the best, let me fill you in some finer details first
First of my boss (ceo) and I share the first name and his last name begins with B and mine with D so MB and MD
A couple of weeks ago I got a phone call from a a rather hot sounding lady from a well known company in my industry asking if I was M, I said yeah that's me and keep in mind when I have phone convos they tend to get out of hand i.e silly so we started chatting about random junk i.e how was your weekend? Did you get pissed up? and so on as the days went by I thought nothing of it and then an email popped by calling me babe and hun and XXXXX so me being me I went along with it thinking it was a harmless thing and it went on and on.
Anyway today I got a missed phone call and my CEO right hand man took a message it was the lady asking me (who at this point I still think that she is talking to the CEO) to attend a massive party in London at some studio where I will be put up for the night AND FREEEE MUTHER FLIPPING BOOZZZE!
Right hand man told CEO whom was with me at the time, as CEO dosnt know this lady I now have to take his place and go to this party with a patently hot lady and get jacked up on booze and lady's.
TLDNR; Lady asks me to go to massive party in London with all the trimmings thinking I was the boss and I am going

Does that mean you're going to have to pretend to be the boss? And then what if you do, and she believes you and then makes an appointment at your company to see the boss who isn't you, but she'll turn up and see your boss and think he is an imposter or perhaps your boss will think it's better if you carry on being him but then everyone else in the company will have to play along and make out that you're the boss and your boss is you and and........what high jinks

Plot Twist: Doesn't your CEO's wife work there as well? Could potentially see a situation where the lady rings up, still thinking you're the CEO and then the wife finds out about some lady who keeps calling the CEO and sending flirty emails  phone call from a a rather hot sounding lady Oh dear Doddy, so naive.

This is literally the plot to some movie with Katherine Heigl and Ryan Gosling.

Times are getting interesting, baby is due mid Jan, I have a kitchen design course for work two days next week and upon the suggestion of my manager I have nominated myself for election as one of the area representatives to make "suggestions" to the top management about improvements that could be made to the company. I believe "get rid of SAP" would be an election winner. Apparently being in one of these groups is worth it if you want to get on in the company, lots of fringe benifits too. Wonder if I can claim a Batmobile on expenses http://www.firebox.com/product/2922/Replica-Batmobile?via=chart

Getting rid of SAP is always going to be an election winner.
All the best dude.

I believe "get rid of SAP" would be an election winner. I used to work for a company that writes HR software and quite often our clients would reluctantly leave us because SAP was being forced on them from above. We used to say "okay, see you in a couple of years!". Sure enough after a couple of years an quite probably £1 million they would ditch their failed SAP implementation and come crawling back.

Last thing I heard it was £15 million and counting and it's been 3 years.
