Oh that totally sucks!!!!Sorry to hear you're not working at the resto shop anymore, Aaron - I know that's a super cool occupation and very rewarding *BUT* only if the workplace is a good one, which this sounds like it wasn't any longer. At least you had a fall-back and this might lead to a much better job down the road!
And Karl, Even and Joe, sorry to hear you guys have had difficulties, too...
In my case, I tried to heal as fast as I could to get back to work and I come to find out that they didn't take me back because the younger guy in charge of the tech department was on a power trip and ended up taking over not only my department, but the GM position, too. So his power-play took from me not only a fantastic job that I thoroughly enjoyed, but my livelyhood, too. So I hope the rat-bastard rides high on his trip, so that he has a much longer way to fall when karma rises up and yanks him off his pedestal...
Thanks Jan!Sad indeed Aaron, that it wasn't working 100% for you....fingers crossed that it'll all sort itself out for you mate!
Evan, Joe and Karl....I hope that everything will work out for yous, you c*nts deserve that much, peace of mind etc., etc....
I still have the Valley Animal Center that I can go to for "work". No money but great inner satisfaction.To be honest, I hate not working.
Aside from the fact that there's no income, I miss the hustle and challenges. I'll admit there were days when I hated every human on the face of the planet and I used the eff-word like a comma, but those times were the minority.
DITTO! Somehow I seem to be busier than before I retired. Who 'da thunk it?Thank God that I'm retired. The pay sort of sucks, but the job responsibilities and the hours can't be beaten.
People think that when you retire, you've got nothing better to do than be at their beck and call endlessly. Volunteer work is how I get rest.DITTO! Somehow I seem to be busier than before I retired. Who 'da thunk it?
Aaron, Joe, Karl, best of luck, guys, these things usually turn out better in the end. Nothing as corrosive as a hateful job.
Cheers,
Wes
Give your ego a solvent wash to get it clean, treat it with corrosion inhibitor, give it a few coats of hand rubbed lacquer, and you're good to go! There's always a spot of sunshine somewhere waiting to be found.all you feel upon arrival home is a vast sense of relief that you don't have to go back there the next day.
Make you a deal, Peter. I'll help you with your project if you'll disarm this live grenade a deceased neighbor of mine brought back from Iwo Jima and his family left on my doorstep. The other three were blown up in various 4th of July celebrations over the years. Deal??Best of luck fellas, I hope you all find gainful (and enjoyable) employment soon. As for you retired guys, listen, I need some help with a little project of mine and seeing as how you probably aren't doing anything now that you're retired...
