What cheeses me off

[Hvr]

Are these the cats you like?

The more people I meet, the more I like my cat.

For your sake the next simulation arrives quickly and better than the last

I'm having way too much fun in this simulation. Or something along those lines.

I enjoyed working with machines rather than people, machines don't get petty when things don't go there own way, don't answer back, don't spend half the shift out having ciggie breaks. Don't get stroppy when you cancel, whoops counsel them and have hissy fits when they don't get their way, need I go on?
Don't miss, nor like any of the people at the the place I last worked at, they really cheesed me off.

Good machine to work with, first commercially available laser printer, from IBM.

At least with machines, mostly, you can turn them off! View attachment 431181

When I was in Fourth form (for the youngens Yr 10) I started to kick up a bit against the career path I was headed for (I had 2 older brothers who had gone into teaching and it was sort of agreed I would do the same). Anyway I started to go cold on the idea. My father arranged for a career counselling appointment in Melbourne (which was a big thing as we lived in Bairnsdale) and duly off we went. After all the questions and tests, the answer came back that a career in the newly developing computer world would suit me as I would not need to deal with people. My father was not amused. I was a teacher for over 25 years and really didn't regret it at all.

A couple of bites at the APS after I 'retired' (early I might say) and still there now on contract. I had a principal who said that when a job was not fun any more it was time to go and I have practiced that. I must have a lowfun threshold as first stint in the APS was 7 years and I have been on contract now for 5.
