Online forums become so slow and less interesting....


Everyone must be away on holidays this week and last, been slow around here.

maybe you are right, then, possibly most posters are on BE when they're at work?

Hahaha pretty much. I am super active Monday to Friday between 8 and 430... but not much outside of that. I tend to read a lot of the forum on weekends on my phone, but tend not to post much because it's a pain in the butt on mobile! Generally things have been super slow around here, which has been super boring for me the past few days at work! Presumably things will pick up again in January once life returns to normal, though.

I am sure a lot do, its common on other forums, busy during work hours, slow as can be the rest of the day.

I spend so much time online, I know the trends of each forum pretty well. I go online mostly at home and lunch at work, can't use internet while driving the company van..

Come to think of it, not sure what I'd do if the internet didn't exist, but maybe then there would something on TV.....

Have I missed a job change?

Actually, BE-Maple Leaf seems to have really slowed down from about November.

Is that a lion in your new (sideways) avatar?

I'm sorry but I can't scintillate year round, day in day out. One needs some time orf.

It's a lion statue at the San Diego Zoo. I gave up on trying to upload the avatar the right way. The picture on my computer is normal, but when it uploads it goes sideways, tried a different picture as well and it did the same, so just left it but sideways.

I got a job in Whistler patrolling parking lots a few weeks ago, day jobs, 30 hours a week, 3 days a week, not bad really, the commute is the only negative but it's doable.

If things pan out, I am going to take a short term course in April, but need to save some $$ so this job works out better.

I know people can't. I was being half funny. I live a very boring life, joys of not knowing anyone but my GF and her family here.....

I was being half funny too and joining in with your theme.

Good job it's not that cold where you are then.

Oh for sure. Whistler Village is usually pretty pleasant, just need my usual coat. Luckily I am off during this cold spell, and should be back to normal temps by the time my shifts start for the weekend..

But it was still only -7 yesterday in the village so nothing horrible.

Sorry short attention span. I was going to say "wear a thick coat" but then I noticed you meant "long winter *holidays*
