What next?
Guy90:
There is an alternative view. The path of least resistance is always the right option. The way to do that is genuinely not care about anything or anybody. Nobody has control of their life. It hangs on the whim and decisions of others. So keep it simple. Only ever consider yourself and sod the rest.
I find a problem ignored is a problem gone away (unless the Police want you). It's easy enough to do if you only think of yourself and forget the consequences of your action on others. They would do it to you in the blink of an eye.
Unlike RRB, I live to work. It is the main part of my life and everything must come second to that. Try it, you'll be amazed how much it simplifies life.

none of us know what is next in our life we have to take each day as it comes if the day is a bad one then it will make you stronger for the next day and so it goes on .life will throw a curve ball at you and at the time you dont know why its happend .but it is all for a reason you may not have the answers now but one day it will be as plain as day. good luck we wish you well.

I tried it Guy, I worked damn hard for a company that just tossed me aside when things got tough, I'd had no holiday for 2 years and worked weekends and late shifts for nowt. Once or twice I had to work through 2 days with just enough time at home for a s**t shave and shampoo.
I had the last laugh though, I shook the MDs hand when HE left before I did, the place closed within 2 years though. I don't think they realised just how much my customers relied on me as project leader to stay customer focused, when I left a few of them did too.
I'll admit that a job that gives you satisfaction can be very absorbing and one that you succeed at is highly rewarding. Without knowing what's troubling you (and we aren't prying mate) then we can't give you anything but the benifit of our own experiences.
I for one wouldn't want to wake up one morning and find I'd missed out on my life by working my a**e off for someone else.
I (and I'm sure everyone else) wish you the best in resolving things :wink:

Hi,
Just a thought following on from RRB's comments,
How many people on their deathbed say
"I wish i spent more time at work"
work is a means to an end - to get money so you can do what you need/want to do. I have also worked for companies where i have been an absolute "company man", and have been dumped on very badly. I now do the best job i can at work but it is no longer the be all and end all - my family are that. I believe in
"do unto others as you would have them do unto you" not
" do them before they do you" as this one is the reason this country is going to the dogs.
regards
ela

Nothing to resolve old boy. I like my life the way it is. Wouldn't change a thing about it. I had the first holiday in 10 years in 2001. Didn't really suit me so not bothered since.
