Title: Works sucks!
Post by: Pei on November 12, 2002, 04:15:51 PM

So I stopped doing it :)
Resigned two weeks ago and Friday was my last day.

Three weeks of packing (supposedly) and computer games (in reality) to go.

Staying in bed until 11 everyday is so good....

OK you lot, stop reading this and get back to work (yes, Ripsnort I am talking to you)! :D

Well for now I am living off my savings: I spent most of the last 4 years working 50-60 hour weeks and most of the last two and a half only going home every other weekend so I figure I've earned it.  Alas I will have to work again (unless you'd like to make a charitable donation?) but not until after Xmas.
But for now... back to playinmg AH and drinking beer :)

Sounds like a 5 week holiday, not exactly retirement.

Still, I'm very jealous.;)

I'd love to but all my remaining weekends in the US are booked up (both of them - I fly back on thanksgiving weekend). Thanks though!
(Now I'm trying to get the image of funked in black and silver face paint and a spiked helmet out of my mind :)).

Hopefully I'll be able to make it across the pond for the con next year.

Now if you are offering some of the Raiderettes.... :)

Seriously though I'd have love to have had the chance to go: I've never been to an NFL game. I really appreciate the offer it's just that my time left over here is extremely limited now. Now if only we'd though of this while I was still working in CA :).

If you go to a Raiders game, please do not judge all NFL fans by what you see...they are a special breed, most, if not all, have felonies. :)
