    How was everyone's day?

    Today I applied for 12 jobs, 5 being youth jobs that offer the employer a subsidy incentive, so fingers crossed for those!
    Uncle rang me and said he has a job I can do down in Wellington (Anyone keen for a road trip ) as an Arborist, and will be going down there in 3 weeks time for a 2 week trial. Will be bound by a 6 month 'informal' contract if I likes it, with a possiblilty of it turning into a 3-year shindig.
    Most action I've had in 6 months, jobwise.

    Got my shirt clipped by a fucking bus on the way back from WINZ, damn those busses overhang footpaths something chronic. Also saw an ambulance on two wheels momentarily, perhaps the bus properly hit someone up the road?

    I also peddled 12k's, and did some situps to shake this gross jellyfat off

    Care to share?

    I scored a new house to rent by the beach and the twisties. We'll be moving in next month and I'll be emailing my current bastard of a landlord tonight to give him the bad news.

    Great day.

    Started at Kathmandu today.

    First day and did a 1200 doller sale, without even having a uniform.
    Fear is never a reason to quit. It's only an excuse.

    So you stood behind the counter at Kathmandu butt naked and sold stuff to boarded house wives?

    I like your style - we only have Naked Tuesday once a month around here.

    Today's breakfast (and lunch) has been currently eight cans of Coca Cola. And a TicTac to keep the diet balanced.

    You are so going to need to down a couple of beers tonight to counteract the eight cans of coke.

    I used to pushie to work for 2 years and move about 3-4 tons of produce/ rather large steel handrails each day.
    Then sit down for 6 months with no luck of finding a job, AND I JUST GOT RID OF MY PUPPY FAT

    Work was busy, which is good I guess.

    Then I picked up my new bike.

    So not a bad day really.

    My day has been a little spoiled by a sore throat...which aint getting any better dammit.
    AND I had to use the cage today to lug crap around the place.

    BUT I sold a decent amount of booze for once...
    AND the sore throat has got me out of tonight's training session...hehehe.

    So overall, a reasonable balance...
