The problem is it also means its boring as fuck most of the time.
On one hand Im glad im not outside unloading artic lorrys in the pissing rain, on the other Im sat staring at DSF doing nothing. :|
i can relate to this

my job involves two tasks that takes up about hour half of my day MAX., despite this theyve extended my contract for another 3 months. i just want to turn around ask why, WHY, WHY ARE YOU EMPLOYING ME FOR THIS??

im glad to have a job and all, but ffs, there must be more to working life. i just want to be a farmer, or fisherman or something. Out at sea with a synth and laptop in my cabin. :U:
Haha well I do think its because I find the path of least resistance pretty quckily.
I know what needs to be done now, what I can leave for abit and what I can sort out later.
Like right now its been 45 mins and all ive done is email to say im in and make a coffee, going off the state left from last night I can do my main stuff in about 2 hours.. making it not even 12 before im back on DSF :cornlol:

I have done some really shit hard jobs so im not complaining too much.

Also everyone wants to work outside till they realise its actually only warm-hot 4 days of the year, the rest is cold as fuck and usually wet.

Sounds like my job Johnlenham.
I get told that I'm here for what I know not what i do apparently.
Bloody frustrating sitting here staring at my pc day after day.

Oh well, maybe time to do a little synthesis work.

Its not as fun as it sounds. I just work really really really fast and litrally the only upside is that I never see my boss and I can listen to my own music.

If the internet got cutoff I think id quit, its that slow. Im also moving office soon so I might have to actually interact with other people so I may come unstuck that way aswell :lol:

Yeah, all good. I was a bit stressed with about half an hour to go... took two evenings of solid cooking to get everything ready, but everything bar a bit of turkey and a couple of slices of pie got eaten. All 10 people went in for thirds!

Very civilised evening... bit different to Halloween! Had Kev and his ladywife, a French couple that V knows and the two couples I live with. 30-somethings shit. :lol: :oops: Was great, but I wish I could've had more people over (and invited some Ninjas)... I think I would've had to take the entire week off and do and armed robbery in Waitrose though... not being able to share the love with all my friends is definitely a first world problem this week. :|

i dont know, maybe its just a case of looking incompetent enough that people prefer you to have no responsibilities.... but like having you around all the same. Every job ive done has largely been periods of staring into space. still better then what i imagine fucking retail to be like.

Budtenders with attitude problems. You work in a fucking cannabis dispensary. I'm not asking for salesmanship or asskissery, but do you have to be so fuckin' vibey dude? Really? :x
