Re: What is new in your little world?
Last day of my old job was Friday. Starting my new job and career Monday. Excited and nervous at the same time.
Re: What is new in your little world?
No need to be nervous... Just get in there and start sucking cock like you always have...

Awesome. Ill copy/pasta this into my phone.

in terms of stuff to look at and go 'ooh', these are all touristy but still worth seeing:
* the Castle (and Hradcany more generally), though bits that were free to look at under the communists, like Golden Lane, are now turnstiled and ticketed
* Old Town Square and the famous astrological clock; the Old Town generally
* Mala Strana and Petrin Hill. fuck the (overpriced) cable car; just walk up
* Vysehrad; old castle and gardens
* Karluv Most (Charles Bridge), if you must, but it's heaving with tourists all summer long
my own favourite spot is between the Castle and Petrin Hill, below the monastery. long flight of steps from Mala Strana to the top
i could go on...
Yeah theres some possibility that I'll end up somewhere UK side for a while first so we'll see. Visa stuff can be weird for me potentially.Doombrain wrote:Enjoy, I think you’ll like Europe. I used to work in Paris a lot and we used to drive to Amsterdam and get hammered. Good times.

Just interested to ask how long were you employed in that last job?YourGrandpa wrote:Last day of my old job was Friday. Starting my new job and career Monday. Excited and nervous at the same time.
My employment periods were approximately 2, 5, 10, 17 and 5 years, then luckily retired early Lucky too, I was never unemployed a day. I think that's rare.
Enjoy the new job and don't forget to step on those toes lightly. Be nice to those people you pass on the way up the ladder as you will no doubt pass them on the way down.

Re: What is new in your little world?
I've been in the electrical side of construction since I graduated from high school. I worked for several different companies, the longest 14 years. Basically I've spent 15 years in the field and 15 years in management. Now I'm going to work on the design side of things for an engineering firm. This transition will be similar to the one I made 15 years ago when I went into management. Taking the information and experience I have and applying it in a different way. Even though I'm confident in my experience, I'm still a bit nervous about doing a job I've never done before. Worst case scenario, I go back to where I came from. Which isn't so bad. But I really do think things will be just fine.

I'm thinking you'll be back low level management, cuz this doesn't sound right for u... Just a feeling...

Not knowing what you're talking about gives little credibility to what you've said. So there is that.scared? wrote:I'm thinking you'll be back low level management, cuz this doesn't sound right for u... Just a feeling...

How’s the house going, DB?
Ours is on hold. Trouble with the builder we had picked. The search is back on...

Re: What is new in your little world?
That’s shit news! Hope it’s sorted soon.
If anything our completion date will be bought forward. The build is complete, flooring in and the first wave of snagging has just been finished. Next is the two gardens and our private road.

Yeah? What's the new role if you don't mind sharing? Congratulations Gramps!YourGrandpa wrote:Last day of my old job was Friday. Starting my new job and career Monday. Excited and nervous at the same time.
Re: What is new in your little world?
Had to google that one. Not a term I’m familiar with. Sounds like you didn’t find much though. And you’re bout done! Nice!Doombrain wrote:...first wave of snagging...
Speaking of gardens, we were looking at the Hartley Botanic greenhouses. I requested a catalog so I could price them. Fuck they’re high! But beautiful...
Our house plans weren’t perfect, so we backed off the build. Told the wife there’s no rush. We’ve got a roof over our head, so let’s make sure everything is perfect before going forward. And somehow the house has went to 3600 sq f (including basement). It’s just the two of us, not sure we need all that room...

Gearing up for a trip the Nurburgring Nordschleife over the next few days. Leave here Sunday, road trip through the UK, France and into Germany. Day in Germany to explore the local area on the Monday, pound round the track on the Tuesday and then drive back home on Wednesday, just in time to get to the 23:30 showing of Endgame in my local cinema...should be a good week
Re: What is new in your little world?
What will you be driving? I've always wanted to go.

Re: What is new in your little world?
LOL... How did I know someone would do that?
A quick glass door search says I make more than the high end salary of an Electrical Engineer in my area (BTW, I'm not an engineer). Primarily because I came highly recommended by the President and one of the firm's long time principles. That recommendation is also why I was able to negotiate for more vacation time than anyone (even the principles) in the company and the only sign-on bonus in the firm's 25+ year history (a substantial one at that).
But you tell yourself whatever you need to feel good, dish jockey.

This is the Rex we will be using: https://www.6two1.com/6TWO1-Blog/total- ... da-crx-sir
So it should be good fun; light, quick, FWD which will be important for me, given it's my first outing at the ring.
