As for your batteries highly unlikely they would give a **** most days
it's post rate that matters, and it's only about 0.5366 posts per second, which isn't that much all things consideredQuote:

People who taste test gelato before laying down their cash for a cup of the shit.
They are almost as bad as the wankers standing at the bar tasting beers before ordering a schooner.
I've never come across more people so unwilling to take a chance on a $5-$10 investment.
And they are all dressed the same too. Khaki pants, check shirt and a stupid beard.
You know who you are. **** off outta my way when I'm lining up for a beer or a cup of cold stuff for the young bloke.
Tossers.
To be fair about the beer tasting bit.. I'll admit I've done it occasionally in the past at the Grainy, for several reasons:Quote:

c) When I was single and wanted to talk to the fit birds that work there, instead of just longingly stare silently from afar.. (Who ironically don't work there anymore, probably due to creepy patrons..)
As for the gelato/ice cream wankers.. I am with you there. I just don't get it.. And its not only the tasting before buying, its the idiotic lineups..
You see them all the time at the place on Zaara St, however nothing is as bad as Popopopopopopolo on King St.. That place, no matter what time of day, has morons lined up out the door..
I have trouble thinking of ANYTHING that I would line up out of the door for these days..
The only time I've used the taste test is for the young one whom wants some ice cream but the moment you buy a full tub, it won't get eaten and you're left with it. Getting a free little taster is enough to convince yungv4 that they have had their share of ice cream and then I can get whatever I want :rof:Quote:

10 years or more in a job is about as good a qualification as you can get.Quote:

What has your job involved mate? As Dunster said, maybe some of us know something coming up.
Are you still in Newy?
You should look at turning your skills into your own business.Quote:

I tried that after 20 years working in the same joint....not all beer and skittles. Back in a management job I hate micro managing underlings. Not my cup of tea but it pays the mortgage.Quote:

Fortunately this time it's earlier in the night.
31st October appears to be the end. Unsuccessful in a few redeployment opportunities, including an amazing role in Hong Kong. Such a kick in the guts to be told you're not good enough despite a decade of high performances and some major achievements against my name.
That sucks mate :(Quote:

Do that to keep the money coming in and who knows you might actually enjoy it.
Do some labouring... anything. Just don't wait for a job to be handed to you because it rarely happens.
Don't think of it as a step backwards either - it's capitalism - so all jobs are shit in the end and you really only work to make a handful of people you will never meet rich anyway.
Disc Golf > Work. Remember that.

Why can people hang back until their bag comes? Nah let's stand right beside the thing and block people who actually have their bag coming.
