I'm bored of this, not fair, whingey whinge

[andy400]

Snotfair! Due to a combination of birth, background, education and lifestyle expectations, I am forced to sit in an office, go to meetings, and bluff my way through a professional career, when, to be frank, I am thicker than a whale omelette and would be out of my depth in a car park puddle.

If I didn't have a family to support, I'd ps off round the world 'til the savings ran out, then work in a beach bar somewhere and live in a shack, bedding a few wealthy divorcees along the way, then ending up impregnating a filthy rich hottie, or a rich filthy hottie. Oh, hang on, no that was Tom Cruise, I'm probably too tall for that, and I don't know how to make cocktails. Except White Russians.

Mmmmmmmmmmm.....White Russian......

Oh well, back to work.

As you were.

You'd make a good Liebowski then, and just go bowling all day.

2 is good! Difficult to be funny, as I'm not finding it all that funny TBH!

I'll get over it.

At least I'm currently working 0.9 miles from home, rather than my previous 1000 miles from home.

Sorry that's probably not what you want to hear really is it?

And I will be doing it in a few years... once im done with the rat race I retire to a place in Asia and live off the land and that will be fine by me.

Wonder how much I will need?

Until then keep on contracting

I did it twenty years ago, and I am currently living in the Philippines.

Rub rub rub. (that's me rubbing it in, not knocking one out)

I've also lived in Thailand and Singapore, after pissing off round the world twenty years ago. rub rub rub.

And I currently work in the USA. rubbety rub rub rub.

Would love to get details off you on how you are doing this as I wouldnt mind making that area of the world my home base and still do the contracting.

I have the impeding misery! Next year I will have to go back to work when my youngest is 2. I was born too poor/umimaginative/plain and stupid to be able to earn my living in an exciting way

[v15ben]

I'm moving to South Korea to Teach English next month. Decided I fancied earning a few quid to teach some lessons and finish at 4.30 every day, but mainly play golf and travel around Asia

rubbety, rub, rub sorry!

Packed up and traveled around South America until I settled down in Buenos Aires for a year or so. Photographed models during the day and hung out with artists, musicians and and the odd expat during the night.
Now doing much the same thing in NYC.

Luckily I dont have family, dont have savings, and can make cocktails.

Oh, and I have a plane ticket to Kuala Lumpa, and one back 12 months later which I dont have to catch.....

Few weeks on, few weeks off at a rough guess.
