Wellcome to tirshik

tirshik is more than a name for a meal in Kurdish, but a methaphor to be used for certain situations.. Mine is for not being clear...

A quotation from the book "The Book Thief"

"They say that war is death's best friend, but I must offer you a different point of view on that one. To me, war is like the new boss who expects the impossible. He stands over your shoulder repeating one thing, increasingly. "Get it done, get it done." So you work harder. You get the job done. The boss, however, does not thank you. He asks for more."

This quotation remembered me one of my colleague - Burak Kucukkeles when we were working together in a hard project under heavy natural and physical conditions in Russia.
