I had a few days at home during the lockdown, even though I was working it was nice to get up when I wanted to, rather than having to open a workshop for wait and see if other people turned up or not.
the number of sickies always equals those a person is allocated per year.
some numb nut is advocating doubling the number of “sick days”
considering I have had none during my working life, do I get a bonus?
i did like the low traffic
but thought funny the number of people who were desparate to have a takeaway once restrictions lifted. The queues were so long.

When life throws you a curve ... Lean into it ...
Having to deal with ignorant people everyday can be depressing.
esp, when you work so hard to make their life easier.
since a long time friend and customer passed away, I took on his role as well as my own, it’s a hell of a lot of work, looks as easy as, plenty of behind the scenes calcs and planning etc.
but when i make a deal, that is so rewarding, as well as when I go back once the goods are working, the happy customer brings a really nice feeling.
its really the reason I keep going.
unfortunately it isn’t enough $$$ to live on, full time.
i don’t get enough time to do it properly, it’s the old chicken and egg problem.
and being quiet and shy doesn’t help (keyboard warrior)

My thought pattern was more like ... What's the worst that could happen .. ???
The excitement of finding out was almost unbearable.
As was ... The pain ... when finding out what the worst that could happen ... actually was.
If your not living life on the edge ... you're taking up space.
When life throws you a curve ... Lean into it ...
It is a little known fact that someone good at their job makes it appear (to the unknowing) VERY easy.
Be proud of your efforts ... be proud that you have that attitude.
Be happy to continue with that attitude.
But if you can't be ... move on. Life is too short to not enjoy what you do.
When life throws you a curve ... Lean into it ...
I do do enjoy what I do, no question there is no other job like it anywhere.
variety, opportunity, in a good facility.
never quite enough money, or almost come right, then economy stops etc.
its having to deal with self interest arseholes all day everyday......
Riding the bike, gets me away from this.
getting better at organising stuff.

I used to post lot's of photo's of my motorcycle rides ... but nowadays ... it's my PRIVATE time. ME time. And usually with no camera.
The "Self interest" time of my own.
Make sure YOU get that same self interest time for yourself doing whatever. The rest ... well ... it's bearable at worst.

You guys need to start a Saturday Night Rant thread...
Getting there.
motorcycles and rides like North Island 800 have really helped.
been given tasks and sorting them out is what I enjoy the most.
Occasionally I need help, like minded people are really rewarding to work with.
got a big ride scheduled for next weekend weather permitting, all weekend down to me mates place 550 km away
and back on Sunday.
NI800 weekend after. Will be raining, it always has been everytime I have gone for a ride there. Still have smile on dial even 12 hours later when I finish.
hopefully Banditbandit will be there this year
