Good by 2008


As 2008 draws to a close and we all put yet another year behind us I have been thinking of the past year and wondering about the year ahead. This year has been both good and bad for me.
Good: My daughter has finally finished nursing school and is gainfully employed. (NO more phone calls starting DaaaDeee) as soon as I heard this word at the beginning of the phone call I knew it was going to cost me money.(clap)
Bad: This also means I will hear from her a little less often.(sad)
Good: My son has finally got his head out of his a@# and has decided to go back to school and get his life together.(cheering)
Bad: Phone calls starting Hi Dad I need to talk to you about something. Translation: I need money.(rotflmao)
Good: Wrapped up my work over here and heading back to the states after 7 years.(clap)
Bad: No more walking into a bar at 11 PM and crawling out at 8 AM(rockon)
Good: Got to see a lot of Asia, meet a lot of nice people, make some good friends, date some hot looking women that do not have attitudes.(jap)
Bad: Getting back to the states and dealing with women that have that have attitudes.(frust)
Good: Having a steak that weight’s more than 4 oz’s and not paying $80.00 for it.(smile)
Bad: Trying to find a place that serves hot saki and not paying $20.00 for it(nod)
Good: Living closer to my family(crazy)
Bad: Living closer to my family(bigcry)
Good: Telling my now Ex boss that he truly is a A#$hole and could not manage a good case of the runs let alone a company and knowing that I will never have to deal with him again.(moon)
Bad: Getting use to a new boss(confused)
Good: Going to the PI and Thailand for vacation when ever I wanted to because it was cheap(ladysman)
Bad: having to pay more to go to PI and Thailand for vacation(eek)
Good: Under standing what everyone is saying and talking about (wave)
Bad: Not being to use the excuse I’m a foreigner and I don’t understand.(crazy)
Good: Not having to carry two kinds of currency to pay for things.(spin)
Bad: Not being able to exchange $1.00 and get 117 yen in return.(rotflmao)
Good: Not having to drive on the opposite side of the road(bounce)
Bad: Not being able to take a clean bus, train, or taxi anywhere I want to go for a reasonable price. (cry)
Good: Living and working in Washington DC for General Dynamics.(clap)
Bad: Living and working in Washington DC for General Dynamics.(wacky)
And finally GOOD: In this industry if you don’t like a job with a little hard work and a good reputation you cal always find a new one. (beerchug)
If everyone is thinking alike, someone isn't thinking.
