I think that's also what you'd have found underneath her. I wasn't hanging around to find out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingRocketman II Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 not really a risk but hummed and hawed about travelling to London (from Glasgow) to attend a job interview that I was pretty sure I wouldn't come close to getting. Got up at 0500 to travel down and was still debating with myself up till the taxi came for the airport (shoes on and had taken them back off to phone and cancel the taxi). Even at airport I still thought, feck it, just get back home to bed. But ended up going through with it, did the interview and of course, got offered the job which has turned out to be completely life changing. Still think back to how things would have turned out if I had done my usual then and said, nah, can't be arsed/what's the point..... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teaching my daughter how to stay upright on a bike with no stabilisers. Not much of a challenge to be honest, but the look on her face . . . christ, the look on her face when she knew she was in control of a machine that could travel faster than her Dad and she knew she couldn't be caught. Big, big rewards. (Sorry to throw a wet blanket onto what is probably intended to be a fun thread).

Mine came at the age of 17 when I got knocked back from a job at McDonald's. Instead I got a job at Burger King a week later and through that met most of my current friend group, my first serious girlfriend, and my now wife. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invergowrie arab Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Triple Tesco Club Card Rewards points on rail travel meaning a Two Together rail card only costs a tenner for a third off rail travel. For me and the missus to take a trip down to Glasgow that's basically a 20 quid saving on one trip alone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 My proudest moment in life wasn't when I increased profits by 17%, or cut expenditure without losing a single member of staff. No. It was a young Greek guy, first job in the country, hardly spoke a word of English but came to me and he went "Mr -----, will you be the godfather to my child?". Didn't happen in the end. I had to let him go, he was rubbish. He was rubbish! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
