Lost ma job a couple of weeks ago, cutbacks.

Still haven't looked for a new job, other than sending out a couple of CV's quickly to recruitment agents.

Enjoying the spare time.

Also put together a website for my girlfriend, which she's only now filling up with content:

http://www.suzannaalevis.com

Opinions welcome, of course.

I own a business at my local international airport.
It's a Donut store with about 16-20 staff.
There are over 6 million passengers through the airport each year (just passengers), and there are only 6 places out of 22 shops that do coffee and food, so it keeps me pretty busy.
I have excellent staff though which make the job way better and my mother actually helps with a lot of accounting stuff which she loves- and saves me thousands of dollars. thanks ma :)

I won some money playing poker years ago and bought this store have had it for 2 years. The plan is to put it on the market at some point over the next year and see if my competition wants to buy the store. (one company owns 16 of the 22 stores and 4 of the 6 food places at the airport). If not I'll just hold onto it and hopefully it doesn't go bust :)

It's not my job, but if I do sell the shop, I want to get into housing/renovating and become a really rich, annoying landlord of multiple properties and retire by the time I'm 50.
I'm Australian and want to be able to go watch the playoffs every year for 3 months over the US summer.
(I went to school at Indiana University and go to the USA frequently).

Cool story bro.

I'm a bit bored...so I'm just wondering if anyone wants to share.

What do you all do? Any of you wouldn't happen to be great web developers, eh? lol

There's a rather long thread for this here.

You might want to merge. :)

I am now a full-time Musician/Songwriter/Producer/Publisher (ASCAP).

Man, it feels really great to say that ... it's been a looooooooooong time coming.

Is the otoscope officially packed away, Bahku?
Stay classy, San Diego. Hello, Baxter? Baxter, is that you? Bark twice if you're in Milwaukee. Is this Wilt Chamberlain? Have the decency to say something.
