A story told by an Eastern Kentucky prosecutor under the "you can't make this stuff up" heading.

A couple was constantly coming in front of the county judge because the woman was constantly taking out a restraining order against the man.  Each time they made up, she would have the order dissolved or let it expire, then go back to court the next time they had a fight.  The judge was understandably frustrated at seeing this couple in her courtroom over and over, year after year, repeating the same pattern.

One day she asked the man in court, "Sir, how can you live this way?  What in the world has happened in your life to bring you to this point?" 

The man hung his head and answered, "Well, judge, it all started the day Dale Earnhardt died..."

The job centre site is really depressing me...

They seriously need to do some jiggery-pokery doodaa whatcha mcallit with that site, it's too jumbled and random. Abit like that last sentence.

There's no work in my area, the only stuff there is either requires previous experience or a drivers licence 

A lot of people with no previous experience or qualifications are going into care-type jobs. Some people at work with 20-odd years engineering experience have gone into care jobs. They don't even have sunny dispositions.

I'm already a carer !!! I can't take it any more !
I've been one since I was 12 !!!!


I'm going to do an online art course. It won't get me a job, but it'll keep my mind of the pointlessness of life.

Oh - I found out recently you can make money selling tattoo designs to tattooists

Seriously ?

Seriously ?
 

Apparently - a friend of mine got £70 for one and £130 for another and I suspect he's just copied them of something he lifted from the internet. THinking of doing it myself.

Yeah, but I want a simple 9-5, dead end job.

The whole Tax/NI thing is probably really complicated if you're self employed.

[Doggett]

That reminds me- I lost my NI card a few years back, should try to get another !!!!

Failblog is starting to lose it's touch, I'm seeing more and more pictures that aren't really FAIL, just out of the ordinary. Kinda reminds me of Jeff Foxworthy's work: He started with a good idea, his whole "You might be a redneck if. . " routine, now it has nothing to do with rednecks, it's just a way for him to deliver random thoughts. "You might be a redneck if, , , you refer to your wife and your mother-in-law as 'dual air bags'". .

Anyways, back to failblog: The following is a picture I just don't see the fail in. It looks to me like what a less-developed country has done to solve a problem within their own means. I mean, they could just not get the kids to school, but they didn't, they used a little ingenuity to get the kids a friggin' education. Sounds like win to me.

Good point.  This isn't what the submitter was aiming at, but maybe the slogan on the side of the bus fails.  I wouldn't want my kids to settle for "an English medium co-education."

I have to mow grass today...
Sometimes I really hate being domesticated; we should all live like feral cats....

We still have 6 inches of snow, on top of a foot of ice that needs to go away before we can mow. .

I agree that we should live more naturally, except then people pee everywhere. . .

Yesterday I smacked my right elbow into something - right in the funny bone.  Today I got the left one in the funny bone.  Not a big fan of symmetry right now.

Did you laugh about it?

I have learned something about being a patient transporter: we are Murphy's Law's toilet.  Everything critical that has to happen with a patient happens when we get there, especially when they've had ample time and a forewarning beforehand.  Everyone wants to draw blood, get vitals, do an EKG, check the urine or stools, and extract the patient's soul to be sold on eBay right when we get there.  Everything that should be a few seconds turns into five or ten minutes, and we run on something of a time limit. 

If someone has a highly contagious disease, there's often been no warning; but if someone has a history of an infectious disease (as in, not currently present, but in their records), then there are all sorts of precautions and personal protective equipment everywhere.  Just today, a couple of transporters walked into a tuberculosis patient's room to take him somewhere.  No sign on the door, nothing warning anyone save for a lone TB mask sitting on the patient's counter.  The same thing happened to me, only I started rolling a two-year-old patient over so I could read her name band.  Once again, no warnings, no nothing.  Nurse walks in fully gloved and gowned and says she has a contagious disease.  Thanks for letting me know after I've touched the patient.  Thankfully, I had gloves on. 

And that's all I've got to say about that.
