what a day

[ajturbo]

i need a drink..
This thought has been going through my mind all day .. from before I got up this morning.



The day started as usual…. The sun came up!...



My heart went down.


I have to face another day, some of you may know what I'm talking about…. But did you know the other stuff?????


1. I got a job…


I dislike it…


do I moan about it to everyone silly enough to listen ??? YES!....


what do I do about it?? Yep I chuck it in!

and THEN what happens??


2. I get an email from a friend in welly…

” come and work down here” it said .

.”We need you”.. ( well at lest someone needs me!)

“how soon can you get here”

but to move?? Away from here,?


The pay is good…. Really FUCKIN good….

White trash is not there any more..

It is doing something that I have trained for and know that I would enjoy.

White trash has left.

There is a bucket racing track there

White trash has left

I'll be able to pop in and see stonechucker

White trash has left

It is closer to Manfeild

White trash……



But what am I leaving behind… .. some of you will know ….

Will they want to come with me?

Will they pack up and leave ..with me .. just so I can follow a dream?

Do I cut my loses and start a new… (it will be a great loss)

I also have a great friend here who races dogs also .. saying good buy to them will be hard to…..

WHY IS IT SO HARD THIS TIME TO MAKE THE MOVE????


I'm still young (at heart)

And I know opportunities like this do not come along often in life….

I know in my heart that I will be going…


When do I start packing? Do I just get someone in to do it for me…………


Rant over

[v.ros`]

good luck in making a choice.

i reckon it all depends on what you really really want. i mean if its that job that your 6th sense tells will be good for ya, then go for it...


BTW dont listen to me

[bugjuice]

hey, it's better to do and regret, than regret cos you didn't do.. or summat like that..

I kinda know what you're going thru. Don't know if you have a full house (and mortgage etc) wifey n kids in tow, but I had similar thoughts coming from England to here. Then I thought fuk it. If it doesn't work out, move back.. least you tried it. Change it good. Else you'll just rot in the same place and smell. Take the jump, you'll have some shit to deal with most likely, and at times even think, what the hell for, but then it'll come clear, and you'll be thankful you did. Else you could look back this time next year (which isn't far away) and kick your arse.
But you have to be convinced it's a good idea. Can't just do it on a whim.. well, not always..

oh, and it was way easier than I thought it was going to be.. don't over-complicate things. just ain't worth the extra trouble

Sounds like me, except I can't chuck my job in (too many financial commitments and I'm too gutless), and there are no job offers.

But (However! Although!) I have changed jobs AND moved to another city three times in the last 10 years. In hindsight, each move was severely career-limiting and cost me HEAPS, but I don't regret the last 10 years. Well, maybe the last five....
But that's not because I took a risk - it's because I didn't know how things would turn out, and didn't know what I had / what I was getting into.

There's no easy answer, like "trust your gut instinct", or "follow your heart". You've just got to weigh it up, do what you think is best, and make the most of it.
That's life.




Crap - that wasn't much help, was it?
Sorry...

I do the "5 year check" thing... in 5 years time - what do you want to be doing - where you are (or would that drive you INSANE)... or there - even if it's not as good as you think...

Your call, and think long and hard.

Your life dude - live it to the max

I've cut my bridges several times,with wife and kids in tow...and had it go all wrong with no going back.I'd be better off today if I had of played it safe....maybe even rich and successful and able to ride any bike I choose,with thick dark hair and no worry lines.It's like tossing a bike into a corner and not knowing if you've overcooked it or not....

Is what you've all ready got cast in stone,or just a nice situation? If it's cast in stone I'd stay,if you're just cosy I'd say get some excitment in your life!

White trash is not there any more..:

Err glad I could help you out with this area of concern, I think

[Wonko]

Make a list.
List worst case if you go to Wellington
List worst case if you stay in Tauranga
List best case if you go to Wellington
List best case if you stay in Tauranga

Ask if they will think about moving to Wellington. Maybe follow you down in a few months.

Think about it, and then act. Make a decsion, and then live it. Failling to plan is planning to fail.

Hey you only get one shot at life, it's the longest thing you'll ever do.

[Warr]

Hey tough decision there for you Andy

Don't ever be afraid to follow your dreams. If you're keen enough everything else will follow.

[FROSTY:Me]

Andy you know what I tfeel ya should do -foolow your heart.
FFS mate --ask the person concerned.
I got some advise from another KBer when I was gonna give up on the racing this season.
"will it matter to you in 5 years if you dont do it?""
Only you can answer that mate.
