Well, as some of you most know I recently lost my job, But I'm a cook/chef (due to the numerous tattoos and piercings) and for work I have been doing Labor Ready to help pay bills and slowly saving up on parts for my crx projects sad.gif
Bam! Behold, a public bulletin board, built of both brilliance and barbarity by bastards with boners. This bastion, no mere bulwark of boredom, is a brutal barrage of blistering bullshit, barely benevolent...A brotherhood of blasphemy, blessed with more balls than brains, battling the bland, the bogus, the benign. Bedlam? Bring it on. But I babble... better to be brief. We are /b/.

Just tell her you are fixing it for someone and it is not yours and when they never show up to pick it up tell her you are keeping it for all of the work you put into it.

I was a truck driver for 11 years before I broke my knee in April of 2008. I am a stay at home dad now. We adopted a baby girl. We got her when she was 20 min old and now Sammie is 19 months. I never thought my life would end up this way, but I just try to keep my head up high and go for it.

Parts manager for local Honda dealer, started with them nearly 20 years ago, June 1991 blink.gif

And no, 1G CRX and 3G Civic parts are not easier to find in Canada, though when I bought my 76 Civic in 1996 I could get just about everything for it, how times (and Honda) have changed ......

Enrolments and Fees Manager at Murdoch University.

Enrol em, charge em, and enjoy graduating them. Well, about one in three.

This is my 30th year at Murdoch, doing a variety of roles. Been doing the enrolments and fee gig for close on 15 years, and given the propensity for admin restructures and system redesigns (every 3-4 years) it's still interesting.

Retirement - not for a while yet. Had 4 month holiday recently and used it as a trial run for retirement. Not ready yet, and work is still fun.

Australian's didn't like your accent!! Reminds me of this very un-pc routine



WORLD SURVEY BY PHONE
Last month a world-wide survey was conducted by the UN.
The only question asked was:-

"Would you please give your honest opinion about solutions
to the food shortage in the rest of the world?"

The survey was a huge failure because of the following:

1. In Eastern Europe they didn't know what "honest" meant.
2. In Western Europe they didn't know what "shortage" meant.
3. In Africa they didn't know what "food" meant.
4. In China they didn't know what "opinion" meant.
5. In the Middle East they didn't know what "solution" meant.
6. In South America they didn't know what "please" meant.
7. In the USA they didn't know what "the rest of the world" meant.
8. In Australia they hung up as soon as they heard the Indian accent.



Luckily the USA rpr members do know about the rest of the world so I haven't offended you. The rest of you will laugh at the stereotyping.

And the observation about Australians is completely accurate!


Enjoy

After years of Fortune 100 corporate positions and the shear pleasure (and truely sincere in this) of the experience and growth of moving/working in NYC, I now dig ditches and love it. I'm at peice in nature and tinkering. I'll never retire - that's by choice.

Do what you love! Everything just falls in place.

I am a bartender, however the bar I was working at got sold and decided to hire new staff after they eventually re opened. So as of now I am still looking around for a new bar. And Frank, I know how you feel, the employment world can be a bitch when it comes to body mods, because as we all know, ink and metal affects how good of a cook you are... dry.gif
