I've pencilled in this evening for bringing my resume up to date ... I've worked out where I'm going careerwise ... check out that Stats Canada link I posted earlier for national salary rates. Nobody really convinced me that there was a better place to head than Ontario ... no offence, but NS just looks like Alberta with more water ... sorry Willmore & Dingbat, BC just doesn't appeal. GTA is in my sites ... maybe I'll be there for January? Good luck to anyone who is Alberta bound ... I'm sure that you'll have a great time ... it's a fantasic province and Calgary is a great city to live in :D We've had a fun time while we've been here ... it's been a 90% match ... I'm sick of myself whining about the 10% that didn't work too. Maybe if I ask Ray nicely we can kill of Glaswegian for good ... you good folks don't need me, you can screw up all by yourselves like every past immigrant :eek: I think it's probably time for Glaswegian to bow out and be hoisted up to the beams of that big arena in the sky ... life goes on and I want to get on with mine. |

Best of luck to your family with the move. See you in Ontario.....it will be later next year for me. Looks like the bloke is being posted to Ontario with the CF, so I may toddle that way too sooner rather than later. Keep in touch, one way or another. |

Sniff, sniff ... gulp ... you guys ... I ...
You're losing a grouchy Scottish bastard and hopefully gaining a much happier Ontarian ... Always look on the bright side of life. Some things in life are bad, They can really make you mad, Other things just make you swear and curse, When you're chewing life's gristle, Don't grumble, Give a whistle And this'll help things turn out for the best. And... Always look on the bright side of life. [whistle] Always look on the light side of life. [whistle] If life seems jolly rotten, There's something you've forgotten, And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing. When you're feeling in the dumps, Don't be silly chumps. Just purse your lips and whistle. That's the thing. And... Always look on the bright side of life. [whistle] Always look on the right side of life, [whistle] For life is quite absurd And death's the final word. You must always face the curtain with a bow. Forget about your sin. Give the audience a grin. Enjoy it. It's your last chance, anyhow. So,... Always look on the bright side of death, [whistle] Just before you draw your terminal breath. [whistle] Life's a piece of shit, When you look at it. Life's a laugh and death's a joke it's true. You'll see it's all a show. Keep 'em laughing as you go. Just remember that the last laugh is on you. And... Always look on the bright side of life. Always look on the right side of life. [whistle] Always look on the bright side of life! [whistle] Always look on the bright side of life! [whistle] Always look on the bright side of life! [whistle] Always look on the bright side of life! [whistle] Always look on the bright side of life! [whistle] Always look on the bright side of life! [whistle] Always look on the bright side of life! [whistle] Always look on the bright side of life! [whistle] Repeat to fade... |

Damm right.... To many dreamers with rose tinted glasses on here... we need to keep those with real experience to provide a reality check on those ‘oh so knowledgeable’ but not here yet.. |
Re: Convince me ...
And besides, if I cant break my sad addiction to this soap opera, I'm damned if I'm not going to drag you all down with me!:)

Re: Convince me ...
I agree with iaink on this. You have sucked us into the plot; it is only right we know the outcome.
