WINNING!!!

Don't fail at winning. Win at failure!

Excerpt from blog post:

"Let them fail. Yes. Fail. Miserably fail like Mr. Losey McLoserson. And when they fail, let them know they failed. Don’t say it’s okay. Kids aren’t stupid (okay, some are, but the really stupid ones don’t even know they’ve failed). Kids know you’re only trying to make them feel better and if you drone on about how they made a good effort and tried their hardest, they’ll start to treat you like the pandering, pompous liar that you are. What they need to know is that while they did indeed fail, it’s not necessarily a bad thing. They can learn all sorts of things from failure, like being able to adapt to improve, to look at situations in differing perspectives, and discovering their own limits. Or we can give them a trophy for failure. That’s much easier and it makes them feel good right away."


And I happen to agree (especially since I wrote that in the first place. ;) :rolleyes:)

I'm retired, so every day's a Monday. But I have things I want to accomplish in life. It is SO DIFFICULT, with the myriad of daily distractions, to set aside the allotted time to each of my five main tasks each day! But my calendar is structured so I get reminders when it's time for this or that. The trick is having the internal discipline to actually do them!

I thought you were trying to get out of there.

lol yes I am but for now I am too hooked on cash lol I have an unhealthy addiction :D

For now I will take it for sure but as soon as I have enough cash I am out of here!

They have changed some of the wording (of the new contract) I don't like some of it - they are trying to make it hard for me to change or to break away to another company lol they are so desperate and they're worried I will leave hahaha!!! xD

Bwahahahahahahaaa!!!! XD

lol but yes I will definitely leave in a bit but for the money though xD I am addicted!!! :D

I just need a few more 100 000$ to be on the safe side when I immigrate but when I have enough I will be GONE - that's what everyone does they don't want to stay here either - it sucks!

Everyone gets qualified and as soon as they have enough cash and experience - POOF!

They go over seas!

lol someone has got have to have rocks in their head to stay here but for now the cash is ****ing good!

will build some cash reserve and when I have enough will live happily ever after :D

lol I need an extra 100 000$ just for my citizenship xD

lol don't judge me for buying citizenship many people with extra cash do :D

@Stinky Stinky, I know this is kind of off topic, I just don't know where else to say this because you don't seem to be on a thread that either I created or just a random thread like random thought thread.
But just wondering, why do you always put spaces in between sentences?









if I get this answer, then I'm winning

Hehehe I dig you buddy! :D

Well I can be a bit strange in a way sometimes people have told me many times before that I am annoyongly pedantic on certain things and it can drive people insane.

That's why I like to space certain things out kind of like new thoughts or seperate ideas.

It does look a bit crazy doesn't it? :)

Lol you win! XD

Yes talking about that whole problem I tried using the internet option on my mac and it is driving me nuts!

I used the instructions I found from apples page itself and really it was just down right annoyingly frustrating I need to take it in to Apple because unfortunately I erased the disk (this on apples ****ing page itself I followed the ****ing dumb ass instructions to the T)

And I see there a millions of people out there with the same problem as I have got.

This is the exact same problem I have got EXCEPT that when I use the method to download and install the os it just says "temporarily not available".

Wow I don't know is what to say :/

Really ****ing stupid in my opinion.

I like the mac but 1 or 2 things makes my blood boil...

In fact if they just did one or 2 things right it would be an absolutely awesome machine!

Wife and I are in negotiations to start a pub and grill. The small kitchen it has is missing (in my opinion) an alto shaam and a gas double burner for use with frying pans. The gods must be smiling on me because the convenience store my wife works at part time wanted to get rid of theirs that they never use. The price? The effort to remove it! That was, by far, the most expensive piece of equipment needed that wasn't included in the deal and we got it for nothing! (Those with any restaurant cooking experience will know what an Alto Shaam is) I tried it out and it seems to work perfectly! We were expecting to shell out around $4-6000 for one! I would have to say that is my big win of the day!!!
