    Appreciate the insight. Kids my age don't really have much to draw from, but you've got like 250 years of work experience so I figured you might have been through something similar.

    Really don't want to wake up to regrets when I'm older. Be a cranky, miserable, middle-aged salaryman who takes his pent up regret and frustration out on young kids on the internet. Could you imagine?

    I'm leaning towards taking the opportunity. Just going to have to suck it in and work hard and not ****post here for a while. The forum would be dead without me, but that's the price I gotta pay I suppose.

    Thanks for the email ID - is that the actual ID or am I supposed to replace first/last name with your actual name in it?
    Need some insight on something Burgey

    Got a job opportunity in my dream industry, but for a role I'll be completely out of my depth for. Zero prior experience, gotta learn all the relevant skills from scratch. They're willing to bet on me, but expect me to hit the ground running, and if i can't pick it up quick i'll be fired. In order to take this I'll have to leave my stable job where I'm competent and in line for a promotion. No difference in pay, if anything I'll be taking a pay cut by shifting roles. Don't know if I can return to current post if this doesn't work out. Don't know if I'll get another opportunity like this in the future.

    What do you think. Take the risk or let it pass and wait for a more suitable opportunity.
    Might be for the best. It's hard to know how much truth there is to the Hayne = cancer meme but that he hasn't been part of a successful squad since 2009 when he's been among the most talented players in living memory sort of hints that there may be something there.

    Parra need a Gus style character. Someone that knows footy, is willing to burn a ton of dead wood and has the (actual) full support of the board.
    Hey mate.

    No dramas at all. Certainly didn't take any of your comments as anywhere near requiring an apology. I get heated on occasion in that forum but I appreciate that everyone there is coming from a place of wanting the best outcome for as many as possible. Definitely see where you (and others on the left) are coming from even if I disagree vigorously with the solution.

    I didn't watch the game last night (only highlights), but when Will Smith is on your team luck tends to desert you. Gutho deserves better though.
    That plate is a government issue I Love HK plate. There is a set of plates given to all new immigrants, and we are legally required to use no other plates in our Instagram food pictures. I thought you would know this Burgey.


    I wasn't around in Richard's era so I feel blessed to be here to witness Miyagi in action tbh
    That Kulfi earned a like from you tho. I know you must have been especially fond of the plate it was on
    Ikr. And he's tryinh so hard to make jokes where there are none


    Granted we all do that, but somehow it's worse when he does it
    Mission accomplished

    Although I might get distracted now by the fact that you've openly accepted Shri as an Australian...
    Life is going well Burg. That stuff with the old man is fine, we're back to healthily nodding to each other like all men should. The rampant alcoholism is under control too, only drinking when I'm alone now so I'm cured.
    The saving grace of Australia is that it's so roomy that I'll have minimal interaction with actual Australians.
    Don't think it would be much fun travelling around Australia at all tbh. But it will be worth the misery to watch BD wreck you guys at home.
    I don't think I'll be coming to Australia for atleast another 5 years. I barely get time off work, and have a list of other places I want to go to before Australia

    Hopefully I'll be able to drop by before your 200th birthday tho
    Hey mate thanks for reaching out. I'm a lot better now. Short story is I was smoking too much weed haha. I'm off it for good now
    Aye and tbh it was always a low percentage. What made me get up was actually the memory of Adelaide 06. I swerved day five because the game was done. Wandered downstairs at the usual time expecting to see our middle order batting away medium pace drivel. I see Oz batting and my first thought is ‘Freddie declared?!’

    Stuck with me. Expect the unexpected.
    Presume you know this, but was only joking with that comment about being a bad winner
