Photobucket seems to be working fine for now, I got the 'System Maintenance' page yesterday too, so I had to use Imgur like Bodge.

So because I'm a silly goose and think my bills are gonna pay themselves and food is free, I ordered a Chev Panel gasser/stock kit and a 57 Del Rio wagon... Because murals :roll:

Luckily I saw them on BNA shortly after I paid my phone and rent :lol: So really it's only non-basic food I'll be without, which is probably a good thing for a fatty rofl

Well I kept my job through the latest round of cuts which is a relief on one hand but feels more like a stay of execution rather than anything with real confidence. On the other hand if they had kicked me out the door I would have been forced to move on but for now we soldier on.
The actual confirmation had dragged out by over a week though so by yesterday morning I had hit the wall and had enough. chainsaw
I woke up grumpy and it just got worse from there and while waiting to go and talk to the boss I was carrying on a bit, f this and f that etc etc - with the boss standing behind me for some period of time. I was not saying anything bad about him, just venting about how long it was all taking so he was understanding and accepting of it, we had a chat but I honestly have no recollection of what he told me after he confirmed I kept my job, I was just on the rev limiter by then and was not really calm again till this morning but 18 months of having an axe hanging over your head everyday has that effect! crazy

I'm hearing you Duncan, 18 months of doubt would certainly p.ss me off... :x
Then again, my redundancy came out of the blue which caught me off guard, we knew there would be changes after the business was sold, but didn't expect the technical guys to be given a tap on the shoulder :?
That was 18 months ago, I've moved on and only worked for 6 months since then, real tough in SA, but you have to remain positive that something will happen job wise ;) pray

Started my Australia Day protest against changing it to Citizen day because it offends Muslims by having Bacon and Egg breaky, washed down with an ice cold Carlton Cold... why beer for breaky? because it''s a free country and I can!

Did some modelling... now it's feeding time atthe zoo again.
Making KC jealous by sending him a pic of my protest lunch :)
A plate of ham... just ham, with more beers :)

Image

Dinner is pork ribs.... which i will share a pic of when cooked of course hehehe
