Ashbourne looks nice but still miles for us both to commute. I dunno. If I get an interview I'll have a serious look at places. It's all pie in the sky at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dodgyknees Posted September 25, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2020 I've decided that my career path needs to be as a self employed business owner. I have set everything up and will build it alongside my current ft employment. My confidence was shattered by the time I closed my last business. The place I once lived is filled with bitter people. I moved away and my confidence has come back to me and I really want to make an effort to make my plan work, I want to be an ethical business with eyes on the impact on the world. I want to work with good people with good values. Kind of nervous about starting all over again. But 20 years ago I was a lost soul with nothing and I have built myself up into somebody I am now proud of. I can look in the mirror now. COVID though, it'll be a tough start. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lapal_fan Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I've just asked my manager for a chat about my salary. Meeting booked in for after 1 today, never done this before and sending that message was me hovering over the send button for about 2 minutes. Nervously excited. Expect nothing! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodgyknees Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Speaking of work, I have created a postcard for a Christmas campaign. I would like an “outsiders” view on it as design isn’t my strength. Anybody fancy having a look and giving an honest view, DM me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's happy for me to go for the job but is talking about moving somewhere halfway between the two cities and commuting but I'm not sure I want to live in Stoke, which is the obvious choice. Simple - get a new wife/partner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you could have moved a decimal point in the buyback clause when Man City try to take Luiz back from us?
