wykikitoon 20150 Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Im a tad annoyed. Â One of my training partners is getting snide comments at work and its put him on a downer. Â He lost his father last year to cancer, but was a ripe old age of 90 (I wrote on here one day I think). Anyways, my mate looked after him for 2 years and the end of his life. He basically left work to look after the old guy. Â Anyways, he doesnt have a mortgage as he lives in his old mans old house and has a lot to do on the house to tidy it up. Anyways, he is in a fortunate position where he can afford to work a 4 day week. Â The guys in his office are giving snide underhanded comments about it. Now, the guys in his office dont seem to manage or budget their money and its their own fucking fault they're skint come the end of the month and cant afford a Costa or something. Fucking wankers. Its got fuck all to do with them so why be cocks about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldnt be arsed to live here but the scenery is canny. Â I work on 23rd floor of an office tower on the Auckland waterfront. My view is Auckland harbour bridge, Waitemata harbour, the harbourfront and marinas and some of the city. Also canny. Â Well done to everyone with new jobs. I'm also starting a new job in April after 5 years with my current employer. Looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on a phased return to work at the minute and have had the odd snidey comment and I just take the piss back. Tell your mate to tell them not to work too hard while he's away, and comment on how desperate it must be to only get a long weekend a few times a year.

Gemmill 44888 Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Fabulous mood  Sitting here like the Lord of the manor at Maften Hall, in the conservatory overlooking the lake and Golf course while sipping a Kronnenburg.  Started the day with a stroll around Hexham, some lunch, a cream tea in the drawing room followed by a Sauna, steam bath, jaccuzi and swim.......  All kid free!  Table booked in the library for seven and then a few night caps on the terrace looking at the stars and my lovely mrs.  How the other half live!  Could get used to this  Love the fact that you spent a night there and still keep referring to it as Maften, you flid.

Kitman 2207 Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Pissed off. Radiohead are playing Auckland - one night only - in November, tickets sold out in 19 minutes whilst I was sitting in a crappy course. Grrrrrrrr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monroe Transfer 0 Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Bit low at the moment tbh. Nothing too bad, but I'm at that point in my life (not long been 25) where I'm content but unfulfilled with where my life is at and heading. My job offers little progression (and there's only a few of us so socially it doesn't offer much), I don't have a career mapped out (I'm not a particularly driven person), and I find the area I live in to be dull and a little isolated which all in all feeds into my life just feeling really sort of slow and stagnant at the moment. I do alright for myself, don't get me wrong. I've been a lot worse. Â Feeling comfortable but not settled. And also lacking excitement, for want of a better word. My social life has definitely seen better days, and that gets me down as much as my lack of a proper career. Just feels like I'm wasting some good months and years of my life to an extent. Â Â Not sure why I'm breaking a habit here by getting a little personal. Just felt like typing my feelings up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 4725 Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 (edited) In your situation it maybe an idea to join something be that a gym, golf club, diet club, get a season ticket....... Â Do something that throws you out of your comfort zone and into situation where you will meet new people. You never know where that will take you.

Kevin S. Assilleekunt 1 Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Some children are born in poverty without any bones, a result of malnutrition. They'll be lucky to see out a few years on this planet and will be in constant pain while they're here. Just a gentle hint, stop the moaning.

Brock Manson 0 Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 It may anger some of them. Assuming the inbreeding means they have an insufficient number of arseholes to perform the action that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
