Fiverr is pretty cool

I just signed up to www.fiverr.com after getting reffered to it by a mate. It's quite a cool little site! I've already contacted a seller on there for a guys programming services.

Also just for kicks I added my own service of "I will ignore your requests for $5" as a joke - wonder how it will go lol!

F*#k Australian TV

Just a short post:


Aussie Digital TV is horrible, they add all these new channels but they are horrible reruns from the 80s and shit.


Worst thing is that now I cannot remember which channels actually have the shows I WANT to watch!

Some good reads

In my daily web browsing there are a couple of sites that I absolutely have to check out, so sit back and check some of them out!

I will post more as I remember in a future blog

Things that annoy me greatly

Found this site that gave me a laugh about pet peeves:
http://www.getannoyed.com/

Here are some gems:

Drivers who don't use a turn signal.
People who read out loud what they're typing in an email or letter.
Kids who tease dogs through a fence.
People who drink directly out of the milk/orange juice containter.
Couples who sit on the same side of the booth when there is no one on the other side.
Parents who bring their young kids to R rated films.
People that don't use coasters.
People who blame anything but themselves for THEIR failure.
People who sit next to you on public transportation even when there are other seats available.
Noisy eaters....

BAAAWWWWW

In todays current job market there are only a limited number of positions within my profession around my country. And being in a semi-rural area maybe 2-3 companies in the region.

Going solo or creating my own company is not viable as all the industry giants I contract out to currently have long running exclusive contractors and there is no way to break into the loop.

Which brings me to my point; what do I do? Stress levels are high, deadlines are impossible and I work with some massive bitches that generally bring me down or slyly insult me in front of clients then rat ME out to the boss for fighting in front of clients which I don't.... In the wise words of the late Rodney Dangerfield; "no respect at all".

Maybe I should break into a new career? Maybe go back into the military? Further studying is prohibitively expensive and will take me into negatives, the military isn't viable either as I was medically discharged with a semi-perminant injury a number of years ago.

So in short I am stuck between a rock and a hard place :(
