    i work a ton of hours Brock. Think about the economy and how much better you have it than the many well qualified people out there looking for a decent gig. Then have a cup of coffee and get the F back to work brother, hang in there

      It involves me and one other guy testing software and we have to split up our shifts, previously worked 8:30 to 5:30 approx..

      Weekends seem like they are a thing of the past till this thing get stabilized, and it feels like it never will, been a month now and shit is still going crazy.

      I get a week off at the end of this week and its not a minute too soon, i'm mentally fried and have had trouble sleeping for months.

      Please guys, give me some useful advice.

      I get a lot of "one day at a time", and "don't take things so seriously"..but please, some practical advice from workaholics out there, What can i do to feel more comfortable in my skin with something quite challenging, and very demanding.

      Please help...

      This sounds like a regular job like most people have in business world

          Umm...500/wk is only 26kr/yr, and that's before taxes.

            50 hours a week? $500.00 before taxes a week.



            Do you work in a chinese sweatshop?

            I havent been paid $10.00 per hour since my parents would invent jobs for me in order to make sure i 'earnt' my money.

            These sbr WARRIORS are brilliant.

            TT more so, but you are a close second.

                      didn't sleep well last night and i'm taking ambien on top of it. Appreciate the advice guys, especially EI and will2.

                      Its just a crazy situation where one day seems different from the next, i can't get into a routine, and the bosses here don't really give a rats ass.

                                "Getting pounded" and talking about being on your knees gives off the wrong impression dude.

                                          Well you should have seen this coming Brock. Didn't you stiff these guys at work? When you and Cougar had your great gambling meltdown where you almost bankrupt your family again you said you stiffed your co-workers at work who lend you money to gamble. Payback is a bitch, isn't it?

                                                  You're welcome Brock. Life is about happiness. Of course you need to pay the bills but sometimes if you break ties that are choking you, you feel free. You're a college graduate and could find something less demanding yet still giving you enough to pay the bills. I told you about the pizza job. People thought that it was a joke. It wasn't a joke on a Friday night when i was making 30+ deliveries and decent cash. All jobs are difficult in one way or another but don't let it put you over the edge. If it does, find another job ( I don't give a damn if it's delivering pizzas) that you can tolerate and can pay for things.

                                                      Take Alteril. It's got tryptophan, the same stuff that is in turkey. It works great. Do 45 min of cardio in the mornings and grind out one day at a time. Go to GA and eliminate gambling. Start living life and get free from all the bullshit. You have a great opportunity, just take full advantage.

                                                              No he just makes shit up and thinks it's real. I didn't have any gambling meltdown, I just reported what I was told through actual conversations with people involved. Anyway Brock I'd never in my fukin life take Ambien, heard too many horror stories of dudes walking around with their cocks out in the middle of the night going to the grocery store, driving into trees, not remembering any of it the next day. I think there was mescaline and transexuals involved as well, but that's besides the point.

                                                              After work hit up the Blind Pig have a few good brews, unwind, place a bet or two kick your feet up, and have some sloppy drunk sex with your wife.

                                                                Cougar what I meant is when Brock had his meltdown calling you daily about his gambling problems crying like a baby. You were the reporter. He said he didn't pay (stiff) his coworkers who lend him gambling money and couldn't cash his 401k to pay them. Too lazy to dig out the thread now.
