Post Race!

Good job!!! What's the next goal?


Good Morning All!

good morning katie.

your a couple of minutes late today ;)

I know...Ian drove me to work today so he could keep the car....never a happy trip for me...I needed to have a cigarette immediately...so I was late!

How are you?

absolutley bored out of my mind. Last day and I've got nothing to do whatsover, apert form sitting here chatting on this site. No change their then

What a happy thing that must be....I've worked here since 1988....I'm definitely ready for a change but I'm stuck until the kids all graduate...I don't want to move in the middle of their high school years.

I'm at the completley other end of the spectrum beeing a contractor. I'm avareging about a different company every 3 month's. It's nice in one way that i'm alway's meeting new people and seeing the country. at the moment I'm happy to do this as i'm still relitavely young and i've got no tie down's at the moment. I probably will go permi when I settle doen in a couple of years or so.

Ian

I work for a contractor too. All this means is that they can move me from program to program...I worked at the F-16 for 2 years, then the B-2 and now the F-22 but I'm still with the same contractor...they just sell us to different programs around base when they feel like it. The down side is they can also let you go any time they want if they don't have a program for you on base....that hasn't happened yet though!

just to let you know (and to add yet another post to this ever growing thread), ive just got back from the hospital, where I had a large metallic foreign body removed from my eye. Quite traumatic...
The local anaesthetic hasnt worn off yet either.
(everyone (and Everyone) laughs at Behemoths floppy face) :D

Oh I see, sorry, it took me a couple of read's to understand that. You work for a company that has a contract with the US air force ?

Poor Behemoth.....I wouldn't laugh at you

Poor Behemoth.....I wouldn't laugh at you

Poor Behemoth.....I wouldn't laugh at you

They sure do :D

how are you all, I've just finished for the day, sitting around surfing the net.

Wow....what happened there???????? My computer is schizophrenic this morning or something!


Yes, Ian I work for a contractor for the Air Force.

thanks, chuck. Not that I can see you not laughing or anything ;)

Ironically, it is my right eye that's shut.

;););););)

BTW Katie (can I call u that?), the next goal is 1000 pages - probably in about 3 years time :D

Chuck????????????

Sorry to hear that mate. how did you do it, too busy looking at a pretty women and walked into lamp post?

chuck - a affectionate name for a mate.

bloody northerners

Sure you can call me Katie. How long do you think it will take to reach 1000 pages....we could start a pool and the winner gets something wonderful......sherry for Ian, vegetables for me...cheese for PJB...whatever!

can I have beer?

Surely, if were all still regulary members when it arrives, there'll be room for all of us on the 1000th page. that'll be nice.

Ian - ive no idea how I did it. i didnt even know it was an "FB" (thats what they call them in hospital you know!) until i got there. possibly earnt it during a drinking contest of which i have no recollection...

behemoth - last year, I was on crutches for two month's becuase of a drinking game. I got so absolutley drunk, couldn't get a taxi, so I walked home. got to the end of my street, got near to the kurb and my left foot slipped off and went like / off the kurb. The beer numbed the pain and I manged to get home. woke up the next day forgot all about it. Off went my douvet, feet came crashing down on the floor, window went crashing down becuase of my scream and an hour later i was in A&E. broken ankle and a torn ligament. My mates had a great laugh over that,

ouch. :(
at least you remember how you got it.
You're ok now though. Aren't you?

sound's like it was painful.

what does everyone else do, i'm a professional layabout

"student"
Trust me, the quote marks are necessary...I also do a little data entry and proof reading.

yeah, no permanent damage, but the doctor's said I should be careful with my left foot as it could go quite easy.

that implies many nights down your nice quiet local with a quiet pint and some quiet mates.

Alternatively, a night in with a nice bottle of Harvey's Bristol Cream.
Mmmm...

bollox to that. what do doctor's know :D

More than us, that's for sure.

Congratulations Simon!!! :D

(see...I missed it...this is what happens when you have to go to school and learn a load of f*****g useless crap that's never going to help)

afternoon mike

they only said to be careful for about a year and i'm nearly at the end of that time anyway. still, it didn't stop me going out and getting completly plastered

if doctors orders are for you to sit at home with an alcoholic sherry jelly goat (?), I can hardly see you arguing..!

Morning Oswald............how goes things?

1/2 hour to go and no more paddington :D, I came back from luch and have been sitting here chatting and nothing else whatsoever

I have been documenting code while chatting.....I wonder if it will make any sense when I'm done???

the following function complete's the how many sherries do you have a week ian and making the sub routine complete.

Right I've got to clean up and shutdown my computer before I leave.

I'm only going to be around in the evening's for a little while so if I miss any of you i'll speak to you when I'm back.

by all

bye. im off too now...

See ya!!!! Stay out of trouble....or at least don't get caught!

im off from school today too. the power when out. it just came back on.

Lucky you...the rest of us are getting tropical storms in the middle of England :confused:

Katie -- I'm fine, how 'bout you? Enjoying the documentation? :D

I'm all right I guess......my daughter has tonsilitis and didn't sleep well last night....so I didn't sleep well either. She's a pretty sick little babydoll....I wish I was home taking care of her instead of here wasting time on documentation :-(

One of my friends has tonsilitis.......but he had his tonsils out years ago :confused:

Weird things happen with the body :eek:

So you're not allowed any time off to look after your kid? That sounds a bit harsh :(

I get one day per month of leave...since it's only February and I took one day off sick last month I don't have any leave built up yet. It is pretty harsh! My husband stayed home with her yesterday but today she's on her own.

every one in my school is sick or has been sick.

The really nice thing about my job is that if my son is sick, I can dial in from home and work. I only have to take sick days if I am sick myself.

Good for you.........I'm jealous

when i get sick for one day at my school it takes a week to make everything up. i hate it.

I was away for 3 days last week and missed an entire chapter :eek:

Are you all over it now Mike?

No, but catching up.

I had to learn about proof by induction, complex numbers, friction, frameworks, and moments in 2 days.

:confused: is way too optimistic :(

Good luck!

Thanks...I have the feeling I'm going to need it :)

I'm going to go and fake bake again. See you all tomorrow!

Bye bye! :)

my friend got on my computer and changed my aim profile so it was really sick. gggggrrrrrrrrrrrr if any of u read it im sry that u had to see that. sad how i found out, an enemy from school looked at it and called me a sick basted. well i had to find out some how.

Im back, how are you all? well who evas on that is? :)

Well im off now, so take care and i will speak to you all soon,
Night...

Woa...last time i was here we were at about 3k posts and now it's 5000+....want to read the posts but afraid it will take a bit too much time. Nice to see this thread still growing.

Laterz,
D!m
