Wild Rose has had an "Off"

[Wild Rose]

Well my Employer has Terminated my Employment
So I have to rely on my Super to keep us going
I am going to put in a claim against the Motel where I had my off
So no more nights out of bed except when I can't sleep
Which is most nights, but I must get enough

[Gerard & Sandra]

Sorry to hear your news.

Oh, that sucks mate, sorry to read, I hope you're financial enough to retire?

[StinkyPete]

I'm so sorry to hear that that's the way it's turned out.   Who could have possibly imagined that a relatively simple tip over, that we've all done, would cause a severe injury, which has ultimately resuled in termination of your employemnt.  Know that you have our support as you negotiate your future.   

[Williamson]

Yikes!

Surely a young bloke like you, and with your skills and abilities, you should be a valuable pick-up some other of employer.

I am going to put in a claim against the Motel where I had my off

Good luck with that.

Look on the bright side Leo, one door closes, another opens. Thats life.  Chin up mate.

The hardest thing is finally get in my head is now after nearly 44 years is that I am now unemployed
Not since I was 18 I can say that
But I will get there 
At least I still have my ST1300 and I'm going for a ride tomorrow 

[Kev Murphy]

  That's the spirit!

[Jdbiker]

Sorry to hear Wild Rose  , but as Kev says, one door closes another opens👍. Best wishes.

All the more time for riding I say :-)

Ps:  Lane started work when she was 14, and is facing the same issue... big mental shift when work has been a constant for most of your life.

I agree David, I felt like I had been shot down in flames when forced to retire injured myself, but was managing ok until I had my accident 2 years ago. Now, I have bouts of depression at the lack of mobility, and being stuck at home waiting for my pension check to arrive each fortnight, so I spend my time at the keyboard trying to find jokes to pass on that wont get me sent to the naughty corner. 
I think I manage ok ...

[DavidP]

And we really appreciate the funnies, they are part of my morning routine :-) (and I suspect many other's as well)

I'm very very sorry to hear about the job mate. After working there so many years it would be absolutely devastating

Try to focus on whatever good things you can and remember you have a lot of friends here that you can talk to any time

Hopefully things will go well with the claim against the Motel and you'll be able to regain some financial stability.

Sorry to hear about the job Leo.
44 years is a good innings.

Didn't I hear something about Grandkids? More time for them.

All the best with your claim.

That's tough!  When will you be old enough for the pension, so you don't have to go too hard on your Super?

Biggles I got another 5 years before I can get the pension
So it is either super or donations

or light work, if that's all you can do.

I go see the Super mob in Brisbane on the 2nd July
So hopefully everything will work out

[Sicman]

Sorry to hear work life has become a bummer for you Leo. I hope you enjoy being out riding more 

[Wild Rose]

2 years ago today I had my off in Angaston
A lot has happened since then
But the best thing is I don’t have to get up all hours of the night to go to work

[Kev Murphy]

How to get into training, without the trains? 

[Wild Rose]

I start voluntary work at meals on wheels tomorrow
So hopefully enjoy giving something back to the community

Goodonya Leo.   There is something quite fulfilling about volunteering, particularly helping those who are struggling.   My own work as a volunteer spiritual carer at a major hospital has been suspended during the pandemic, and I really miss not hearing the stories of the patients and staff, and supporting them during a tough time.   I am sure you will get as much as you give.
