Soar Fox Posted 18 April 2013 Share Posted 18 April 2013 Quiet night at work, which makes the night go slow. Listened to Sterephonics (decade in the sun) Oasis (Time Flies) and kasabian (West Ryder) Just over an hour left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted 19 April 2013 Share Posted 19 April 2013 Final night shift. Gotta try keeping myself awake all day after though, got some new snowboarding gear arriving and going to a Uni Open Day after deciding I need a change of career. Coffee is definitely my friend today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted 19 April 2013 Share Posted 19 April 2013 Got any thoughts on what the new career should be?.. snowboarding coach is an obvious start point Honestly I have thought about that. Looking at doing the BASI instructor course next year and there's an indoor slope here in Manc where I could do part time work too. I was looking at doing something that I could do in a freelance capacity that could tie in with the boarding instructor out of season. Had thought of something like software design, certainly within my current workplace there's jobs going, but quite how flexible that would be particularly at the beginning of a career remains to be seen.

I don't hate where I work at the mo but really do need a challenge. And as much as I'd love to be teaching snowboarding for that time I'm already 33 so it'd be ambitious Still, to spend winter seasons travelling and enjoying some great powder would be absolutely superb!

Then prob worth talking to where you are and seeing if you can get better options from them, if youve got a decent employer, they are like gold. Beleive me , 33 isnt really that old ... when i think of where i was and what i was doing from 15-25... then from 25-35.. then 35 - 45... fvck, so much unplanned and exciting change Life is about more than avoiding death Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozleicester Posted 24 April 2013 Share Posted 24 April 2013 Just fed my daughter Got. Late shift at work today and then back onto nights. Joy oh joy!!!! I know millions will say it too you, but take a moment to really enjoy the middle of the night feeds etc... they are beautiful and special times that make for wonderful memories. I can remember feeding my daughter in the middle of the night, sitting watching Wimbledon on the telly back in the late 80s, with her bouncing and gurgling on my knee... beautiful times.

You have a point Oz definately agreed there. I can only say that i absolutely adore my daughter, this is "last chance saloon" for me as i have had children in a previous marriage/relationship and things havent turned out so well (i have a 21 year old daughter i havent seen/spoken to properly since she was 16/17 ish). i am enjoying every moment for sure 3 night shifts on the spin from tonight, which is not so good but at least i get to put my daughter to bed before i go to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just coming to the end of a 90 hr working week of extreme tedium Although the benefit of doing an all nighter in Australia is you get to listen to the football in the background.
