Ahh. Been doing it for a long time? Did you get into it because you had an aptitude or interest? Ever consider doing something else?

I use to work an office job; but hated being confined to a cubical.   I like having work that is physical it is good for keeping one centered and in balance.  It's an ok career but I have other ambitions long term.  I enjoy where I work but my body won't hold up doing heavily labor for long.  I injured my back last year and it has been a constant issue.  I have been cross trained into Security and am looking to get more experience in more repair related aspects of the job.  But we will see how things progress.  

It is an ok job. I didn't really have an aptitude or interest in it outside of wanting to do something humbling.  Some people look down at people who clean for a living. I find it a rather humbling and character building experience. As long as I am gaining something from it I will keep at it.  It has its perks but we shall see. :) 


I personally would like too become a writer maybe even a sports writer.  But we shall see. I need to return to college for that.  My sentence structure could use a brushing up too.

My work out in the snow...

 

Lol ok. But seriously though. Apparently microwaving food causes health problems and food loses mist of its nutritional value.

 

Mist workplaces don't keep conventional or even mini toaster ovens though. 

 

Might be a better question for the workout thread people.

You can get a thermos.  Cook it before work, chuck it in and it'll be still hot later on.

Woke up, fell out of bed

Dragged a comb across my head

Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up I noticed I was late
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
Somebody spoke and I went into a dream.....

 

Damn I looked at this redonkulous thread way to late.  That song refrain was the first that came to mind. Good one.

wow, a lot of very hard workers in this thread, hats off to especially the folks taking after their kids + working hard hours.

 

This is what impresses me the most/makes me worried about having my own kids. I guess you just learn to adapt/survive but... jeez.

 

6:00-8:00: Check my email, start writing. Take a shower

8:00-8:30: Take the dog out

8:30: Kiss the wife and walk to work

8:30-6pm/7pm/8pm: At work

Rest of evening: back to work/hang out with the wife/walk the dog

10/11pm - go to bed

 

I make my own work schedule, so the amount of hours I work and when I work can vary week-week or day-day.

The pleaser of Women, CDC Blogger:emot-parrot:

 

Logistics - Shipping and receiving large freight mostly electrical.  Union gig, pretty lucky to get the job but I did do a lot of crap jobs so I paid my dues(literally have to pay union dues:P)

 

If I was you I'd be looking into landscaping man.  It's decent pay, super stress free, and you'll only work weekdays and most likely be home by 4pm giving you lots of time to pursue school or find a better paying career.  I definitely would consider it over security or call centers or any other entry labor job.  And I wasn't kidding about the ladies, a landscaper is right up there with poolboy in terms of getting a little somethin' somethin' on the clock.
