SA Wasteland?

[Madaz]

my old man works @ Mobil birkenhead but is only a clerk

[Hotwire]

Friend of mine works for GPA engineering. Local consulting firm that deals quite a bit with Santos, SA Water, Zinifex etc. Based locally with a fair bit of site work. Could be another good option, as sometimes the big companies you listed tend to forget you're a person, and think you are just a cheap resource

and she only talks about it when i'm around argh

[Sambo33]

haha yeah i say that to my mum, i tell her to go bother the other

kids, but it doesn't work.

yeah i'm not too fond of kids, just depends on how they act really

like my bros mate (who's living with us) has a 2yo, gets him every

2nd weekend, he drives me crazy, i can't stand to be around him.

speaking of kids a family friend of ours had a baby boy yesterday

argh more boys, why can't they have girls so i can spoil them with

care bears and strawberry shortcake stuff

[Sambo33]

yeah thats it, all the yelling and screaming gets to me. if they could just sit there and be good it would be different

why u up so late?

[Cubes]

lol I got up because i couldn't sleep. Tossing and turning thinking about exh manifold and dump pipe design that i'm about to start welding.

Then started to think about what o2 sensors the gtr's run as I'll be dropping a rb26 pfc in to my r32 (I sold the old ap engineering one off). So off I go googling.

Just wait until you have kids.. Once they get old enough to start giving a little back its awesome.

Best thing I've ever done. lol

My little boy is almost 2.5years and is already a little rev head lol. Rides his bike with trainer wheels making broom noises while he leans back and pedals as fast as he can. If I have to accelerate a little hard to merge in to traffic or what not I hear from the back... "burn daddy burn" lmao I have no idea where he picked up the burn from. When I'm working on the car he's already a great tool hand. Knows what a hammer, screw driver and a heap of other tools are. Its amazing what they learn.

You learn to turn off to the tantrum crying etc.. Apart from tantrums kids don't cry for no reason; well ours doesn't.

I think we've been lucky though; no collic, no allergies, no issues burping or with wind. So pretty much a perfect baby thats now very quickly became a little independent "no I don't want to daddy" cheeky chops.

it with us 4 kids. but the stories she tells us are hilarious, especially when it involves

me .

and i'm out in the shed (where the computers are) coz i was escaping the baby talk haha

[Sambo33]

haha i use to say that. now i wouldn't mind having 2, but when i'm like 26

or something, screw having them now i want my life

yeah it is fairly cold out here in the shed, my hands are so freakin cold

i think maybe i should invest in getting some of those mitten glove things

[Sambo33]

yeah i bought some of those gloves the other day, $5 from coles!!

[pokie]

$5 what a rip off, could get them from Big W for $4

[Sambo33]

yeah it doesnt take long, i just noticed i got 3000

that isnt too bad though, *looks at cubes posts*

[pokie]

considering he's been on here since 2002 and is a moderator, i'd be expecting

them to have that amount lol.

it's taken you 3yrs to get to 3000

your such a post whore Sam

[Sambo33]
