Avoiding work at all cost ! WTF

I work with guys almost half my age and they
all work harder trying to avoid work
Then if they would actually fucking work !
Famous word uttered throughout the day
Is it time to go home yet ?
And I wonder if we'll get a bonus this month ?
And I say to myself
"Self" Were they here at all today ?
And why would a bonus be given !

I guess its all how we are raised ?

I had a nice easy day at work today, wasnt any need to avoid it... I think work avoided me!!

gird (up) (one's) loins
To summon up one's inner resources in preparation for action.

Damn!! That didn't take nearly long enough. I'll need to think of something else to do now to keep me amused.

thanks, G. I'll sleep easy tonight.

Yes

I'm avoiding work this morning because I'm off for a job interview.
Loins are girded!
(anybody know what that means?)

In fact, the phrase "to gird one's loins" comes from an old Turkmenistani custom of wrapping dried llama intestines round and round one's pork loin before weaving into one's dreadlocks.

I have no idea what that means, but will now avoid work by trying to find out on the internet.

The art of procrastination. That's all I seem to be capable of

Read "Procrastinations"

That job has taken me til now to finish.
Bloody hell.

At least my head will be clear for a NBZ learnathon and an online band wigout (beneath wraps) tomorrow afternoon out into the Dover ether and beyond...

Piano parts to thrash out.
Tomorrow will definitely be a more fruitful day.

[Cigar-aficionado]

Come the better weather I will be working weekends selling fishing gear on the local car boot sales and then I get to smoke even more cigars

[Lionhound]

i'm watching Ireland v Italy rugby which has become so boring in 2nd half that I could consider doing some work instead.

Nah! I'll just tough it out.

[Drewmidorn]

Work? I've heard it talked about before, but never experienced it myself.

If I've got stuff to do I tend to get stuck in and get it over with, then I treat myself to a cup of tea, a good stick and some crap DVD.... Tales of the Gold Monkey at the moment! lol
