  • Cool. I can finally take you around for some good food then. Treat you to an asian dessert.
    Now I'm worried I've inadvertently set the wheels in motion to get you fired

    It's all fun and games till someone loses their job
    I'm legitimately worried that, if someday I get to a job with any sort of public persona, some dick is going to trawl through all my CW posts, find all the **** I've posted here, and try to use that to get me fired.

    Strange world we live in.
    So the banter is fun and all but some of the stuff in the "What are you thinking now thread" is pushing it a bit wrt ethnic stereotyping and the like. Maybe pull it back a little.
    That's what you said about chasing Miyagi off and he's still here
    Not a man of your word by the looks of things
    Im on 10 points. Not gonna cop a ban right before Eng/Ind series so I'm out. All on you to actually finish the job
    Here's hoping you end up slipping some confidential information into your post by mistake, and a Miyagi quote into your hearing notes.


    How funny would that be
    Given you're spending you spare time at work trawling through another member's posts -a member you do not know beyond his username- on a cricket forum in order to 'publicly' humiliate them...I'd question that
    Hahahaha

    Appreciate the insight. Kids my age don't really have much to draw from, but you've got like 250 years of work experience so I figured you might have been through something similar.

    Really don't want to wake up to regrets when I'm older. Be a cranky, miserable, middle-aged salaryman who takes his pent up regret and frustration out on young kids on the internet. Could you imagine?

    I'm leaning towards taking the opportunity. Just going to have to suck it in and work hard and not shitpost here for a while. The forum would be dead without me, but that's the price I gotta pay I suppose.

    Thanks for the email ID - is that the actual ID or am I supposed to replace first/last name with your actual name in it?
    Need some insight on something Burgey

    Got a job opportunity in my dream industry, but for a role I'll be completely out of my depth for. Zero prior experience, gotta learn all the relevant skills from scratch. They're willing to bet on me, but expect me to hit the ground running, and if i can't pick it up quick i'll be fired. In order to take this I'll have to leave my stable job where I'm competent and in line for a promotion. No difference in pay, if anything I'll be taking a pay cut by shifting roles. Don't know if I can return to current post if this doesn't work out. Don't know if I'll get another opportunity like this in the future.

    What do you think. Take the risk or let it pass and wait for a more suitable opportunity.
    Might be for the best. It's hard to know how much truth there is to the Hayne = cancer meme but that he hasn't been part of a successful squad since 2009 when he's been among the most talented players in living memory sort of hints that there may be something there.

    Parra need a Gus style character. Someone that knows footy, is willing to burn a ton of dead wood and has the (actual) full support of the board.
    Hey mate.

    No dramas at all. Certainly didn't take any of your comments as anywhere near requiring an apology. I get heated on occasion in that forum but I appreciate that everyone there is coming from a place of wanting the best outcome for as many as possible. Definitely see where you (and others on the left) are coming from even if I disagree vigorously with the solution.

    I didn't watch the game last night (only highlights), but when Will Smith is on your team luck tends to desert you. Gutho deserves better though.
