Well I'm of for surgery on Monday and will keep of the bike for probably 4 weeks and probably 3 months before I can plan a long ride or any dirt action.

Pretty pissed about it as at Christmas surgery was not needed but as my employer has continud to do the wrong thing now my arm is F(*&KD and I need surgery.

Looks like Monday will be wet and I won't have a chance to ride till then. One last fang before I get admitted at lunchtime.

Makes you want to sue every f(*&KN one of the C(*TS in the management team PERSONALLY and make it very F(*KN personal back. Yes Iknow I have an anger management problem - not riding does that to me.

Hopefully this get my arm sorted and I can get on with getting a new job away from these arseholes.

Unfair dismissal went before the Industrial Relations Tribunal this morning and--- I WON!!! They have to pay me a large sum of money, give me a reference and promise not to say anything nasty about me. AND I went for a ride yesterday.
Sh1t life can be a happy place!

Where I am working we have 63% of staff injured and 2/3 of those on active compo claims.
Just got home from the hospital and the surgeon is happy with how it went. Well see tommorrow when the drugs wear off. One of my co-workers was in for the same op on his second arm in 2 months as well and we got a good chance to chat (same sugeon).

The company is making life hard so we all leave and they think it will solve the injury rate - silica substances and ostriches come to mind.

They are also dumbing down the company be employing inexperienced staff as they force out the old hands - we are just waiting for our next fatal accident to occour as a result.

Pretty keen to leave before my proffesional reputation is sullied by others incompatence. At least I'll have a lot of time to start job hunting.

Yes its quite interesting when your've worked both sides of the desk

. And I'll say it again, glad we work for ourselves

Hey Wizurd ( Rick ), good news then.

Well I've been in the shed all day, prepare the bandit for this week ends (woho) a long week ends ride. Fresh oil and filter, the usual stuff, and a new shinko 005 on the front,

Friday its the REX's turn, oil and stuff and 2 new tyres 005 up front and a 009 on the back. Still don't know where the F where going, not that I really give a F, It just seems like forever since I went for a real ride.

Surgery good. The only real problem is that now I have had my BAD arm done and it doesn't bother me much (just usual post op pain/itch etc) it has highlighted how bad my good arm is.

See the surgeon next week to get stitches out and sort out if we do the other one as well in 6 weeks time.

Off teh bikes for 4 months will not make Jan very happy.

Well, I've got say I'm quite bemused.

'The Treasurer' can't get a job in Wagga to save her live, but she's just got back from 3 weeks in Melbourne (Glen Waverly) doing some relief work at a dealer, again the same type of work she got sacked from in Wagga because "she is incompatent" and heads back down to Melbourne again next week to do 2 weeks relief work in Coburg - again doing the same job she got sacked from in Wagga.

And it appears there are a number of other dealers that are interested in getting her in to relieve when their 'stocky' is away.

So much for her being incompatent and 'upsetting' other dealers. The local bstrd can go a f*(k himself

Now common decency on my behalf stops from from telling you exactly which dealer in Wagga it was that sacked her - suffice to say it's Japanesse and they sell the best selling medium/family car in Oz - nothing against the product - just the dealer

By the way things sound, from talking to your good woman over dinner, it sounds like she could get a good deal of work down here in Victoria.

Let her know the pics of the little fella are on their way.

We are even talking about the possibility of moving down that way - I can get an internal transfer to the Laverton/Altona depot - but because it's my choice it will be at my expense and no payrise.

I'll let Janice know about the pics

OH what a feeling, ophs just couldn't help myself.
The Pic's yeah well, the dearly beloved, her indoors, the minister of the dollar and war. has told me to hold off on sending emails of photo's. For she is putting together a web page, OMG. So at next rally you see her with a digi camera run. you will end up on her web pages.

Which reminds me this years footy trip is on week after next. This is for her footy team, and the saturday night theme, is school uniform. Hmmmmmm those web pages are starting to worry me. But one good thing its at troopers in the Grampions, and I get to ride there, bummer ha

Let Janice know to bring down the M750 seat, I have worded up the bloke who does the sheepskin covers. and she need to think colours.

Crap, Janice had to go down to Melbourne early, they guy she's relieving for had to take leave early (the baby arrived unexpectadly) and is there now

B6mick · « **Reply #27 on:** August 23, 2007, 08:26:55 PM »

Bugger, guess you could take it off and send it down here via Toll IPEC

Sorry

Oh what a feeling, sorry

Guess I've got too much time on my hands with only working a 3 day week,
Here is a pic, taken by the lads down the local bike shop, next door to the place that does the sheepies

Tell me is it true that IPEC, stands for I pass every c--t

Yes, but unfortunately they are always heading the opposite way to where the goods are supposed to go

whoops did I just say that.....

Up until a couple of years ago, when one of the senior managers found out, our IT Department used TNT?????
