England. Come to England

"Bos: He'll plow your street before 4pm."
WOAH!
Oh, you meant snow removal.
Yeah, that works.
Aw. Sup?
Wow. The whole street?"Bos: He'll plow your street before 4pm."
I. Am. In. Pain.
Wow. The whole street?
"Bos: 100% committed to plowing in the morning!"
Oh noes! Take drugs. Drugs help with pain. *passes drugs*
Afternoon folks. Boring work is boring. Also, the three day week is making me all lazified - I don't truly believe we're back at work because it's not Monday morning, so I'm all 'meh' about everything.
Pulled muscle on my hip, it's ok though, it only hurts when I move.
"Bos: The only candidate willing to plow on demand!""Bos: He'll plow any time you need him to!"
Three day week? Do you remember the three day week from the 1970's? Loads of good stuff came from that, books and music wise. Hmm, perhaps that's the problem, you're at work not writing right? Oh well, why not try turning it into a plot-line as you go round the office?
I just about remember it, it was great fun if you were a kid like me. If you had to work in a supermarket like my mum, you generally walked around with atorch in one handAlas, I wasn't even born in the 70s.
But my main problem is I just plain don't like working. I'd rather be at home, chilling and working on my novel
Feel free to correct me, but having spotted your contradiction I feel it's necessary to say that you don't like to work for the man.
I think it's most accurate to say that I don't like nine-to-five desk jobs or, in fact, any type of going-to-work work. If I could work at home as a freelance journalist I'd be golden and honestly wouldn't mind.Feel free to correct me, but having spotted your contradiction I feel it's necessary to say that you don't like to work for the man. (You know I watched School of Rock last night right?). It's not work per se, everything from cooking to shopping is work in one way or another. It's the point of the work really, I understand it's crummy, but look on it as research. All my time (speaking as an old fossil, that's a lot of time) in crummy jobs was crummy, but now it's invaluable research.
Pfft. Sell out!Eh, working for Da' Man is not that bad. He has allowed me the freedom to enjoy little things like paying the mortgage, eating, and playing with elebenty-bajillion different hobbies. Maybe it's not the bestest job evah, but I've had much, much worse.
And Bos is running for President now?

I'm sorry. The party bus just seems like the place to be. Of course, I'd prefer coffee to alchohol and to be on it by myself....
what?
don't judge...
If I owned my own dogsled, I'm sure I'd be as nonchalant about it as you are.
It's not like the government here- and the snow plows - shouldn't be used to this. We get this every single winter.

Thank you, but they always make me feel funny, I try to avoid them.

Yeah, it's just The Man. I don't like working for him *glares at Man*
I'm dreaming of the time when I can work full-time on my writing, at home, at a nice big desk in a dedicated office 8)
I view my time in the workplace with mixed feelings. Yeah, there's some gems, but much of it is dull - the stuff that's happened to me outside the workplace is far more interesting.
Anytime you ladies want to stop trying to "help" me, I'd be fine with that. Really I would.
