Screwed thats how matey!

You'll get another job mate as obviously your qualified in the field. But do you want a change? Sure shes the right girl? Are you happy with your sexuality? Whats the time?

I am qualified, I know, but I havent had an interview in 10 years, < i might go into estate agency, I love Deborah and I know I have made the right choice with my wife I love her totally but it just seems everything is getting to me at the moment

right well you have Deborah, your legs ain't falling off. Thats a great start, plus shes obviously happy enough with you or she'd have done one!

I assume shes working so that means theres some cash comign in, maybe its time for you to look into other areas liek real estate.

Have a think about it mate, no need to take the 1st job either!

cheers Chris, you should do a trisha prog, I know shw will stand by me and that she has a full time job , I just feel a little, down at the mo as I am not only losing a good job but some great mates, as when you move on so does everything else, 9 years, big changes

yeah I know, I could motivate millions or at least cause them pain in some way.

You got the girl, shes got money coming in, maybe even think about uini, over 25 etc you get fees paid for you etc!

Mates come and go, sad but true, its the way life is. Its wakign up to go to work that will get you, takes ages to get out of that cycle.

i know how u feel mals, last company i was with had 5 years off of me

it's not the company thou or the work that guts me leaving the place, its the people i worked with, 98% of them were totally great people, we all got on with each other and depsite the fact we are all stuck at work we had fun together and thats what made the place.
