Hey Bruce, you know whats really cool....like seriously pants wetting cool....the RAAF base is just down the end of my street and the army base is 10 minutes away....PLUS these NAVAL training base too!!

HA!!

The "guy" is an Army boy, there was a position available at the army base (...waits for the comments), but we decided it wouldnt be good for the relationship if I worked there...for.so.many.reasons.

I havent even walked through the house or driven past it, but the boy took heaps of photos for me, and I can blame him if I dont like it

They are cool with 2 big dogs, 2 cats, a turtle, 6 yabbies, a bird and some fish.

I'm totally pissed at my soon to be ex employer....what a C.O.A.T, they sure show their true colours when things dont go their way.

Sounds like you've got your bases covered.

What are yabbies, and what is C.O.A.T?

ZenGum · 08-19-2010, 04:42 AM

Well, that's our military recruitment and retention issues sorted out right there!

C.O.A.T = C*nt Of A Thing.

Yabbie....(see pic)

Monster - there's a fourth bedroom that might be the rumpus room or part of the upstairs lounge/living.

Ah, thank you. By the way, morals are overrated because they are highly subjective. Smart people's morals are elastic.

Are you hiring a moving company or is this a call in past favors project?

DucksNuts · 08-21-2010, 03:56 AM

Oh no, I think I have used up all my past favour calling cards and Im quite fond of my furniture in one piece....Ive hired a big arse removals truck and I will probably take up a little truck rental as well with all the additional crap.

You might want to check that out properly before turning any knobs on and walking away.

DucksNuts · 08-26-2010, 03:49 AM

So I was supposed to finish work this Friday, but they finished me on Monday....in a not very nice way either - cockheads.
My big boss was away until today, but the Business Manager finished me on Monday because he had some changes to make "and it will be easier without you around"...yeah right, you want to bulldoze my girls and do it without me being around to tell you how and why I think its wrong.

Anyway, after I got over being pissed, I realised they are paying me to pack and I was in "IDGAF" mode anyway.

Ive had 4 removalists come through and none of them had trucks big enough, another quoted me $3500 - FUCK!

Finally find a lovely, kinda hot guy, who popped around unannounced and he said he would do it for $2200, plus he will dismantle the beds etc and put them back together. I think it helped that he caught me half dressed

Casi - I could do with that list about now!! I've done the power, gas, phone, booked the kids into school and kinder, cant find child care at the moment.

casimendocina · 08-26-2010, 05:52 AM

What's left on the list in addition to finding child care (just so I can be really thorough about this)?

xoxoxoBruce · 08-26-2010, 07:01 AM

Casi, if you really want to help, wear your old clothes on Saturday.

casimendocina · 08-26-2010, 07:28 AM

Will there be an airfare to the other side of the country as part of the volunteer package (she said looking hopeful)?
