Obviously the library job is unionised as most jobs in Denmark. My union is Trade and Office County (HK County) they negotiate on behalf of all public workers who work for local counties. They also have branches for State.

In Denmark we use a system named DK5. It is based on Deway system but not exactly the same. Link

Don't you use Kroner in Denmark ?

I dont like my job because of the fuckin dumbass i have to lisen to, and when the shit goes wrong and you tell the it isnt going to work in the beginning, then they want to fuck with you when you want to take vacation time. Fuck them, when i get my first big hit, im done working for somebody else. I want my last days to consist of being in front of a computer studying games and placing bets while banging a pyt (PRETTY YOUNG THANG) HOLLA

I'm in the electronic prepress department of a large printing company. About 80 people work here, 78 of them I like, naturally the guy I work nights with is one of the two I dislike, more and more everyday. I wish he'd disappear.

The work involves a lot of variety, challenges, responsibility, tight (unrealistic deadlines) and the pressure that comes with it all. It pays well and I've been on an incredible overtime run since the middle of December. My boss is cool and we get along great. He knows I produce and care about what's going on, but I'd still like the guy I work with to vanish (he's a fucking ass-kissing dick head).

Yeah spit, my boy's going on his third trip to the Ukraine (bride hunting). I don't think he can talk to a broad without using an interpreter (I bet she charges extra to translate his b.s.). I pray he finds one that insists on him moving there. It might be far enough away for me.

B, for goodness sakes tell him to calm the heck down.  i have had 3 patients get brides from the ukraine and russia.  same results, quick pregnancy, no more sex, increased financial demands, flirtation with other men, eventual divorce.
i would personally try asian women, if the full depth of the financial bargain is clear, they tend to honor it.  very very little honor from the area where he is searching, hi chances of long term failure.
i personally love my job, i got an 87 yr old male patient with heart failure who bought a 35 yr old thai wife( for 40 K to her family) and even though he is impotent, he installed a stripper pole in the house and gets daily nude exercise classes to watch. true story.

B, those ukranian women lie like a rug.  go asian,  much much more honor for an honest contract.

Doc, I got no problem with the fool getting whipped. Serves him right, he plays the great Christian role then runs to the Ukraine for box. We live in Arizona, it's Mecca for women. He's a phony and corny as the day is long. Foreign brides are the next step after being a regular at a strip club, it's all about the $, they don't give a fuck about you. He's not even smart enough to just pay an escort, save 17 hours of 1-way travel and the hassle.

Love the old man story, good for him, he'll probably check out while watching a pole dance. That's the way to go!

bet he's asked for his inheritance ahead of time like the prodigal son of his book.
if the dude is religious, go grab a loving decent mexican girl.  great in bed unless you make them jealous, then you better watch your huevos rancheros closely or the scissors will get the family jewels.

I've told him before to go to a homeless shelter and find yourself a Mexican girl. Clear her up and she'll love you forever. It's not like she's got to be a beauty queen.

Traveling to the Ukraine for a 3rd time. He's a big joke at work. What's the next step of desperation, breast implants (for himself?). wtf? And I have to work with this 8-12 hours a night. Annoying as the day is long, always drumming on surfaces, making unnecessary noise. 

A guy on dayshift worked a Saturday with him and texted me while I was playing golf and told me he was the most annoying person he'd ever worked with. I thanked him, because it convinced me that it wasn't just me. My theory is that I have no children and God sent him to me to annoy me. Nobody rides for free.

Hate my job.

In one way, it is my only means to live the comfortable life I live.

In another way, I hate this cocksucking job so much, I now hate my fucking life with a passion.

I'm in a major pickle with no real solution.

glyde, 

go look for another job!

If it means relocating, relocate - your in Jersey, there's nicer places to live. I'm from Baltimore, I know your life well. Moved out here 12 years ago, haven't thought 10 seconds about moving back.

GL too ya.

It is always easier to get a new job, when you have a job.

I've been teaching English out here in Korea for almost 10 years, and I fucking hate it. Teaching English in Korea is like a gold rush - you can either get lucky and hit it really big or be like the rest of the panhandling masses who come to Korea with that greedy gleam in their eyes but go back home disappointed and broke.

At my peak point, I used to be a ghost writer (someone who writes college application essays for Korean students applying to American universities) and would charge about 5 grand per student. You round up 5-10 students and you can see how profitable it can be just writing a bunch of plagiarized essays for these filthy rich and spoiled students who use money to get ahead in life.

But alas, due to my excessive propensity for prostitutes, alcohol, and especially gambling, I have nothing to show for all that money I made, and now I'm stuck teaching phonics and basic English skills to little 1st and 2nd graders who seem to be the reincarnation of every elementary school bully and asshole I ever encountered in my own prepubescent years. All this for a relatively measly 2 grand a month compared to what I used to make.

At the age of 31 now, I'm in panic mode as I wonder where my life is headed, and it's sick to think that the only joy I find these days is when I gamble, gamble, and aimlessly drift through these forums.
