Still cruising along!

Well it's been just over 3 months since I started my new job as an electrician for a large company.

I don't miss my old desk job, I don't miss the bullshit I had to listen to every fucking day that dribbled from the mouth of psycho-hose beast slappers that get sick pleasure out of making peoples lives hell.

I was chatting to one of my ex-work colleagues last week who is a member of "the resistance" movement that was set up by myself and a fellow disgruntled employee. It seems that the company is in the shit to the tune of more than $60,000,000 (yes, millions!) and everyone is deserting the sinking ship.

These days, I head to the workshop, grab my tools and load up the van with my co-worker and we'll head out and hit some places to pre-wire and fit out. No stress environment, and no issues with any of the co-workers because we're all on the same page.

And the beauty of it is, I'm getting three times the salary I was getting at my old job.

Here is wishing you all in FuckThisJob.com land all the best and keep looking at the light at the end of the tunnel. It's not dead, it's just dim, keep on walking and fighting the good fight.
