MistaSparkle 0 Posted May 24, 2003 Author Share Posted May 24, 2003 Mr Matthews - It's a bit of a crossroads for me because I'm thinking of switching careers, or at least getting out of what I do now because it bores me to death. Link to post Share on other sites

Markie 0 Posted May 26, 2003 Share Posted May 26, 2003 Don't worry, scouser, my guess is that enderzero will soon be joining the rest of us in the real world cos all that $$$ left to him from his rich uncle is nearly used up! Link to post Share on other sites
zwelgen 0 Posted May 26, 2003 Share Posted May 26, 2003 Yeah I reckon Markie! Bet that inheritance/lottery/lawsuit money is just about used up eh? Cmon spill the beans. I like my job and it is a GREAT job but Im just sick to death of it. Doing the same thing for 3 years just gets boring towards the end of 3 years. Maybe Im just spoilt and dont know how good I have it? Link to post Share on other sites

mikazooki 0 Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 ive already passed my crossroads and ditched the career in which i was trained. now trying to work my way into something new. but in general i'm with ender - work is for suckers. i still havent kept one job for more than 12 months. and am unsure what a paid holiday is besides being too short! this means i am forever behaving like a tight fisted mongrel to the displeasure of my close friends. cos when i have a job i am saving for when i dont, and when i dont i am trying to make it last until i do. its not an easy way to live a life, but the time in between nearly always makes up for it. the time will come soon, though, when it will all become unsustainable...but time for one more burst before then.

nzlegend 1 Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 Or another spin on this thread. "How would you rate the people you work with?" Thats as important as the job itself. My job would be better if the colleagues were better, unfortuneately I work with some real ass clowns Link to post Share on other sites
snowboard_freak 0 Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 A lot of the people i work with are dead shits. A couple in particular have very poor communication skills and have no idea how to work in team environment. Ah well, such is life. Link to post Share on other sites
