What do you want to be now you are all grown up?

[LBD]

23 is not all grown up!

10% better than I am now, either that or a banana.

We will make him faster.

I don't see 40 as all grown up either but at 23 you sure as shit expect others to refer to you as a grown up

I have the right staple gun to make sure their pants STAY the fuck up...

There is the option of using a strip of leather with perforations along its length, and a metallic device at one end.
Far too complex for the yoof of today though.

Blame Bendon - they started it

[Edbear]

Now I'm all grown up I'd like to stick around for a while...

Good on you for trying to give some kind of direction to young lives. Too many haven't got a clue what to do these days. I used to tell my kids it's not so much what you do but that you do something. Get into the workforce and over time you'll find what you're looking for.

Thanks and yeah - many of them don't have a clue...but crikey there is a heck of lot of 'stuff' to choose from!

I have actually been really surprised how little some of them discuss with their parents - especially boys! It's quite a privelage to be able to help someone to clearly identify their interests and strengths and make a plan they can be excited about for the future ...specially if you can help them to avoid poorly matched study or job choices.

One thing I have noticed though is that there is a lack of the dreaded reality! Many of them want to be the CE when they start...when discussing the 'HOW YOU GET THERE' context some wrinkle their noses quite severely yes you probably will have to do some shite jobs that you believe you are above along the way - welcome to LIFE

They do! AMong other things...as witnessed during the school holidays at Wellington Zoo

I think the whole undie hanging out thing actually started as a prisoner style in jail...baboons, convicts...CHOICE company

You are never to old for some positive change ya know....

Get a perm! That'll sort it...ok I'm taking the piss and not meaning to trivialise the hideousness of going to work either doing a job or at a place you fricken hate...I know I am born again!

I wish I had started my apprentiship at 16 instead of going to uni.

The adult version - is the original Belbin Team Roles Theory assessment tool and is Adult centered - referring to adult and work type situations and interactions. I do use that as part of a Team Effectiveness day and have used it with individuals for role suitability, career development, performance and general coaching etc.
.

I did the Belbin thing a few years back when working at AUT.

Came out as a "Plant" ... they never told me what plant though. A noxious weed maybe

RUBUS COCKBURNIANUS would probbaly best describe me....

• Needs little maintenance which is just as well as it has vicious spines that are best left alone!
• Dreadful suckering habit and vigorous root system, can be a big mistake if planted in the wrong place!
• Tough plant suitable for problem areas
• Can scratch young children

Already onto that - doing an MBA.
Hard task will be convincing the world that I am more than a 9 trick pony........
