Why must it always rain sideways just when it's time for me to walk home? It's also still 29ºC. Death by umbrella/roasted elephant's arse is certain :(

Also, why oh why must characters suddenly appear in television shows who look exactly like fuckers you were trying to forget ever existed? :epiclame:

I know guys, you are right. Better to spend $200 and waste it now than $4k on new transmission later.

I taught a friend/colleague's class today and faaaaark, he does a shit job. He has baffled them with difficult useless shit, hasn't told them basic essential stuff and apparently sets homework on topics he hasn't taught yet, then randomly changes due dates :tard:

It is totally not cool, but there is nothing I can do about it. Even if 'the authorities' knew, they wouldn't do anything, or even give a fuck. The students just have to cop it :?. Poor li'l tigers.

The office is very boring when you have no work to do.

All my smoking buddies have called in sick today, why didn't i do the same. If i had called in sick i think this is what i would have done:

- I'd still be in bed but i would be thinking about getting out now;
- Probably done some washing (boring but it needs to be done);
- Read the paper (pitty i have already done this and it is only 10am);
- Gone to Bimbos for lunch (i haven't done this in years as i am always at work);
- Checked out Nightlife 5 (I hear that Andy guy can mix);
- Had a snooze on the couch;
- Done some more internet shopping;
- Maybe watched some new episodes or played xbox depending on how i was feeling post lunch and rest on the couch;
- Gone to training;
- Have dinner and some laughs with the boys.


As i didn't call in sick i can only do the last two dot points.

Sounds like you're being too nice. I get this quite a bit being in IT pretty much everyone, everywhere and all the time wants you to help them. I am far too nice to say no usually but sometimes it just needs to be said or you get spread too thin and then people who want stuff from you (for nothing mind) get angry at you.

Need to say no to a few people i reckon. GTFO TBH.

I do hear you guys, but I dont know how to say no when its my job to be a yes person really.

I am in an industry with the most incompetent people percentage of all i reckon. nobody wants to help me, they just want what they can squeeze out of me, every day, all day, to the tune of 200 emails.

I seriously dont know what to do but skip out of it all right now.

GOTD: I decided to kick my exercise routine up a notch again, and in doing so left my weights on the floor of the dining room.
So what do I go and do. I kick them, HARD!

Little toes don't really stand a chance against 6kg free weights.
So my toe is broken, well I'm assuming so.
I can't put pressure on my foot at all, thank god I have an old hockey stick laying around. It is now my crutch my toe swelled up to twice it's size in about 1min and I heard a crack.
Going to go cry again now.
The fridge is angry, the cheese told me so.

Watch out for the penguins, they are comming

never gets easy, but the more times your heart hurts, means just as many times you made it feel good... and usually the hurt is ONE hit that lasts a while but the good is usually multiple waves of goodness that more than make up for it.

I will see you in December anyway, its been a while, so stop your whinging you'll have an annoying squirrel around before you know it :P
