God i hate these days!

I started work at 9:00am and finished at 9:00pm...

This isn't the only thing i did in that time btw lol.

But yeah painting a floor aint exactly exciting is it.!

I suppose sniffing 2pak paint for 4 hours or more aint really healthy eh?

So yeah Pics**

Try spending the day in a harness that cuts off all circulation to your testicles, just so you can strap yourself to a scissor lift so the health and safty man is happy you wont leap out of it and fall to your death.

How could you fall out of a scissor lift? you would have to be acting like a complete gonad

Exactly. Im also not allowed to use an arrestor strap (a long cord that will slow your fall if you leap out of it) because im working at different heights, so I have to use a restraint instead which phisically stops me from being able to leave the confines of the lift.

It also completely stops me from being able to move from one end of it to the other without un clipping it, and by the end of the day, i was actually contemplating leaping out of it to end my misery lol

Aye, painting floors is a wicked job :D you get to toss it off all day rolling out a floor for a silly amount an hour (well i do anyway :D)

Try 60 hours with no sleep in Afghanistan. THAT was a long day(s).

I was a bit dozy after about 20 hours, but then I started overdosing on coffee every hour which worked a treat :D

Aye...

ATM am not cards in a just do the odd job when they ring me...

It's not great but i don't got any bills to pay so it's not that bad.

Sometimes like this week i have had 6 days work given to me which then that money will cover me if i want anything after my holidays...

I love the work though... worked with people like top dogs of united stadium - Ricky hatton - Loads from corrie - Patrick Stuart etc...

Yup, I get them.

EG, Yesterday

No one at all in the office aside from me. No work load, 3 calls all day and no Telly.

Ok I have the Internet but theres only soooo much you can do.

9-3 is a short day but long when you consider how much longer you'll last working like this. Worrying times.

I was so bored at work yesterday I went and bought 20l of Masonary Paint to paint the garage as doing that was so much more exciting than being at work.

But I got home last night and decided not to paint. I'm at work now and wish I could.

Everyone send lee a cuddle:D

Dod
11-09-08, 11:12 AM
Lee, this sounds mental and will taste horrid but I have a plan.

Get some lemsip, put a drop of whiskey through it and drink it as hot as you can. Then pass out in bed well covered and under a large duvet and sleep it off. I garentee you'll be cured when you wake up.

Stoo
11-09-08, 11:14 AM
I feel your pain lee, i was in the same boat last week

Lee
11-09-08, 11:16 AM
I like it Dod, i may try that lol

Spudly
11-09-08, 11:20 AM
My mum makes lemsips like that, couple of spoons of unset honey, two soluable asprins couple of drops of lemon, top up with boiling water and a good measure of whiskey, its better with real honey aswell as it has anti-biotic properties, do that and you will feel miles better after a sleep:thumb:

Dod
11-09-08, 11:21 AM
I'm telling you. In 2hrs time you'll wake up and be cured. It tastes aweful and is difficult to drink but after 1 sip you can feel it work. Just be sure you lock the door in the house because it'll knock you out so much you could well be raped and not know til you wake up.

Ill do that, seeing as id rather be awake when being raped to enjoy it.
