Adam must snatch a pebble from the CEO's palm.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Thursday, 21 July 2005 04:15 (twenty years ago)

ooh

Hopefully Adam's Iron Shirt style is stronger than the CEO's Black Mountain style.

I borrowed the 'Wu Manual' off a student today. Fuck, it's a great read.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Thursday, 21 July 2005 04:22 (twenty years ago)

what do you have to do before they confirm it? do you have to have a 'fireside chat' with the ceo? do you have to do aptitude tests? do you have to shave off all your pubes?

Not even that! They like me so much they just want to do a reference check, and providing my ex-managers don't balls it up I think it's mine :)

Glad I'm much better.

Us too. Faaark.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Thursday, 21 July 2005 04:23 (twenty years ago)

Yeah man, I learnt from it, though.

I went cold turkey from the stuff too, which I'm proud of. You get these mad 'brain shivers' that drive people back to taking it.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Thursday, 21 July 2005 04:30 (twenty years ago)

Ouch, you poor bugger.

Last year people suggested I go on anti-depressants and I said no, and this is why. I knew what would fix my depression, getting the fuck out of call centre work would fix my depression and, violin, it did.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Thursday, 21 July 2005 04:32 (twenty years ago)

Haha, mate, they put me on half the chemistry set.

You know, I sometimes get really badly depressed, but I can get up in morning 99 times out of 100. I blame exercise and better eating for the improvement. Seriously, doctors need to prescribe gym memberships and a good thai green curry.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Thursday, 21 July 2005 04:38 (twenty years ago)

Fucking definitely. Exercise is proven to alleviate depression.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Thursday, 21 July 2005 04:41 (twenty years ago)

Oh i think i might have that for dinner, maybe a bottle of wine too.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Thursday, 21 July 2005 05:24 (twenty years ago)

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Thursday, 21 July 2005 05:31 (twenty years ago)

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Thursday, 21 July 2005 06:35 (twenty years ago)

Congrats on the job, Adam. It inspires us all when those of us seek superior vocations and SUCCEED.

I'm going to be job hunting in November, not looking forward :(

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Thursday, 21 July 2005 13:44 (twenty years ago)

i'd totally love to just show up. i could travel across the world with the powers of my BRANE and then suddenly just be there all "hoi hoi!". except i wouldn't say hoi hoi because it would sound ridiculous coming from an american.

that is amazing you went off of effexor cold turkey, mikey. i tried to and whoa shit, brain chemicals are fucking scary. fucking neurochemicals would be put to such better use with mindpower world travel than with nervous-breakdownlike reactions to drugs. or other interesting mindpower possibilities. dammit.

― juliaaa, Thursday, 21 July 2005 13:56 (twenty years ago)

Morning mongrels! The only person I can think of who says hoi hoi! is probably monty burns.

― mullygrubbr (bulbs), Friday, 22 July 2005 00:03 (twenty years ago)

actually it was fine - just i got the module document at midday yesterday and i was interviewing all day so had NO TIME. class due to be taught at 6. got there 5-ish and cobbled shit together. then - after many room changes - it turns out they are all double booked so i had to teach in a rest area at the end of a corridor with just a tiny wee whiteboard, no desks etc.

winged it.

― mullygrubbr (bulbs), Friday, 22 July 2005 00:06 (twenty years ago)
