Thought that I would put this here since we have a totally off-topic thread.
MY RESUME
__________________________________________________ _____
My first job was working in an orange juice factory, but I got canned, couldn't concentrate.
Then I worked in the woods as a lumberjack, but I just couldn't hack it, so they gave me the axe.
After that I tried to be a tailor, but I just wasn't suited for it ... mainly because it was a sew-sew job.
Next I tried working in a muffler factory but that was too exhausting.
Then I tried to be a chef -- figured it would add a little spice too my life but I just didn't have the thyme. (Not to mention that I had an affair with Rosemary)
I attempted to be a deli worker, but any way I sliced it, I couldn't cut the mustard.
My best job was being a musician, but eventually I found I wasn't noteworthy.
I studied a long time to become a doctor, but I didn't have any patience.
Next was a job in a shoe factory; I tried but I just didn't fit in.
I became a professional fisherman, but discovered that I couldn't live on my net income.
I managed to get a good job working for a pool maintenance company, but the work was just too draining.
So then I got a job in a workout center, but they said I wasn't fit for the job.
After many years of trying to find steady work I finally got a job as a historian until I realized there was no future in it.
My last job was working at Tim Horton's, but I had to quit because it was always the same old grind.
SO I RETIRED AND I FOUND I AM PERFECT FOR THE JOB!

QF have given me my first Xmas present with an upgrade U seat becoming available on my ADL/SYD flight in mid-late January (so now I have upgraded all 5 sectors BNE/PER/ADL/SYD/BNE using expiring UC's and point)
But what I really want from QF 8) , is 2 J seats on QF176 BNE/LAX tomorrow, but with Expert flyer reading J0 C0 D0 I0 U0, it'll be a close run thing...
Please QF, I've been reaaaaaallly good to you this year :wink:

Anyone not on holidays over Christmas and New Year?
Nope.
So I am driving down to the local BBQ's Galore this morning to get some spare parts for the beast on my back deck, when the mobile phone rings. No caller ID number appears so I assume it's Mrs YY calling to ask me to pick up something for her. Wrong. It's one of my boss's setchetaries (in Singapore) asking if I had seen her email asking for everyone to submit their shirt size so she can finalise the order for company polo shirts. :roll: "Well no" I said - "I'm on leave and have not even turned on my laptop since last Friday". "Oh" she says in a surprised tone, as if this is strange.
Harumph!!!!!
Anyway, the office is closed until the 9th so I had to guess shirt sizes for everyone. If I've selected a larger size than I should have for any of the women I'll be on a hiding to nothing.
