Totally agree with you on this. Although, I think you've broken the first rule of fight club ;)

Totally agree with the above , a lot of people are just risking everything for what ? I look at some people around me and also who work directly for me and see a totally unsustainable life which will end one way and that is right up shit creek. Not much empathy left in the tank after nearly 20 years.

Iv struggled to really get my head around why for many years . Saying that there's a reason why smack heads like bedsits in coastal towns in the UK . Same probably applies here. One of the most important parts of working overseas is to know when to pull the ripcord.

Ripcord just pulled - got an internal transfer which was very attractive, after 16 years it time to head back and be able to go the Stadium of Shite on a weekend.

I'm a lurker on that FB page, its mindblowing how many of the members are only just surviving on crap packages or are out of work and hoping for something new to come their way. This is not the place to be doing that.

Plenty of bedsits down there. St Leonards was full of them.
