    Getting up for work every morning for the daily "slog"???
    9-5 listening to the same crap everyday?

    You see lads who live close to you. Never worked a day in their lives...if work was in the bed they'd lie on the floor.
    One fella in particular in my town, driving around a brand New Audi A5 Coupe, never worked a day in his life, going to collect the dole in a car that being on the dole for 15 years wouldnt pay for?

    What am i/we doing wrong??

    Come on man, you're the mod of two humour forums! You gotta try harder than that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,716 ✭✭✭✭Earthhorse


    Yes.

    *gives MagicMarker tip*
    I lied.

    *takes tip back*
    Or did I?

    *explodes with tension*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,953 ✭✭✭Vinta81


    Yes.

    And you're doing nothing wrong, I'd rather own that Audi knowing that I actually put the work in to pay it off/buy it.

    I always said, if I ever won the lotto I'd still work - it's gratifying. I'm a busy bee, I like working, I like being productive. The lazy life isn't for me.

    Maybe he won the lotto & didn't tell you.

    Or maybe he 'slipped' on a wet floor, got a load of money & has to sign on because he has a 'bad back' due to the fall.

    Or it could be drugs.

    Or prostitution.

    Or...a fcuk it I don't know.

    You need to get back into work and stop stalking your betters.
