I quit my job !
I told them I'll do saturday and sunday, but then I need a break for a little while.

Eeek!
Hope things work out

Pretty sure 'having a break for a little while' isn't the same as quitting
You're there for life, fella.

Nice work mate - from what you said yesterday the place is fucking poisonous.
As long as they know "a little while" = "the rest of my life".

What are you going to do now?

I said I was quitting, and then I said "I need a break to sort out my head, but this'll be the last weekend for a little while".
I think I might build up my business again and find another part-time job.

Good on you.
What's the job market like where you are these days?

And what does Gonz Industries involve?

The real one is websites and general geekery.
I'm a Microsoft qualified solution developer, am great with thinking up technical awnsers to real world problems. I'm very good at building websites, proper dynamic things.

It's very very rare someone will come to me with a website problem/idea that I can't make due to limitations in ability.

Cool - so if I ever need a website for my own nefarious purposes I know who to talk to ;)
I admire anyone who can make a decent looking site that works... my last forays into webdesign were when it was still cool to have a background MIDI* on your page.

Everyone's good at something =)
I'm quite pleased with my latest site: www.kangallife.co.uk . It's a wordpress theme that I skinned my self and the photos section grabs from Flickr. Content needs to be done, but that's it.

I likes!
Twitter feed and everything, too :) I also like seeing how rusty my Latin has now got when I see the lorem ipsum. There was a time I knew 25 words for "death" in Latin!

Not being able to make sense of lorem ipsum is no big deal
given that it is, and is supposed to be, gibberish.

Based on Cicero's De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum, it's been used by typesetters for centuries. However, had realtext been used, their dummies might have been mistaken for the real thing - so they used this standard nonsense.

That makes far more sense.
I think I like being able to find random words I used to use a lot :) can still remember bits, and mostly rude Catullus poems at that!

I'm glad you quit
You don't belong there. Shit hole. Besides, I want a job at the Em-Paul-ium...
