My Biggest DisappointmentOften the things we look forward to the most turn out to be a huge let down. As Freddy Woo puts it, "High heels in bed? No fun at all. Porn has a lot to answer for."
Well, Freddy, you are supposed to get someone else to wear them.
What's disappointed you lot?

My Current JobThe reasons I applied for my current job is the following:
1. Close to home, therefore zero commute and save money.
2. Better Salary, important with kid on the way.
3. Managment position - step up, look good on the CV.
4. Permanent job. First one ever.
I have since found out that I:
a) Hate being a manager - you get it from both sides and have to sit in pointless waste of time meetings with people you despise.
b) The stress I lose from no longer commuting is more than outweighed by the stress I get from the job
c) The money is not worth the grief I experience on a day-to-day basis.
d) permanent job but now I spend my lunch break surfing the jobs websites for something else and I can't wait to leave.

Get OutI got promoted to management and totally loved the responsibility and the fact that I could actually influence how things operated in at least my club.
1) I got it from both ends (oooer). I had a harrassment complaint lodged against me because I dared to discipline a homosexual employee that was stealing from the till. From the bosses was due to me complaining about working 70 hrs per week and getting paid for 40.
2) STRESS!! Gah, no job is worth stress.
