I'm officially Unemployed

[Cliff Rogers]

....no apologies for the deep and meaningfuls either, I reckon this is a pretty important event in a bloke's life!)

Good on ya Jeff.... Gumby, you have 3 months to get off ya arze & come up here & pave our veranda.

[ernknot]

Gumby,
you made the break and good on you. I did the same some years ago and am now doing something I never thought I would be doing. My life in the corporate world taught me something besides watching a bunch of crawling backstabbing butt kissers. I am now working as a consultant building factories all over the world. I haven't been in my shed for seven months and don't mind too much because the current challenges are great, they keep me alive. Just remember as one door close another opens. As long as you are optimistic and have confidence in yourself, all things are possible. I have done the "smelling the roses" bit and after a few months they stink. Re-aim your abilities and dreams and have a go, you won't regret it.

Gumby

Happy 1st day for the rest of your life
remember........it's better to have tried and failed,than to have failed to have tried


all the best

[sliver]

All the very best for the future Gumby. Just promise you'll do want YOU want to do rather than just what everyone would EXPECT you to do.
It's your life mate, you only get the one.

[Gumby]

Sorry I didn't get back last night

She was asleep so I started reading a book and nodded off myself.

Thanks for the encouraging comments people. I'm going to do a some work around the home for the next few weeks and then we are going to NZ for a nice holiday for 20 days.

After that, well, who knows.

Is this a good example of "the best laid plans of mouse and man. .."? (pun on"Laid").
Little wonder that she fell asleep with the WWF choir singing hits from the 60s in the background!
I walked out on my job of 20 years about four years ago - At the time it was almost as bad a feeling as when my Dad died. Now I realise that it was the best thing that could have happened.
All the best for your future. Have a great holiday and don't start working until you're ready to (or need to - whichever comes first!)

[Wood Borer]

Geez Gumby you beat me by a couple of months.

Enjoy it mate.

Good luck with the future - and enjoy the trip over here Gumby.

I have stopped & started a few times - it is tough getting used to the absence of issues and people those first few days.

She'll be right Gumby, half your luck mate...

HH.

Gumby,

Now you'll have time to become a TRITON DEMONSTRATOR... Just don't mention the TSC10HB

[old_picker]

Hey gumby
Dont bother with computers mate its crap out there in pc land.
Too many techs who will work for rates you can make flippin burgers.
IT has had a big downsize over the past 18 months and all those little techs who used to work in the corporate sector are now in the business on the ground.

Don't #### bricks
have a month or two off
something will turn up in the meantime
give your brain a spell and when you feel betterer and your head is clear an idea will come as to what you will do next.

Stop freakin out man it will all be cool in a little while.....

[Clinton1]

Unemployed hey?
1/2 your luck, I'm still working toward that!
