Looks like I'm really getting to you scrambled egg brain? As you know pippi, I don't work. A typical day would be.

6:30 - 7:00 breakfast. Fresh ground coffee, fresh fruit, wheat toast.

8:30 - 10:00 bike ride, check waves down town, the reef, and Langosta.

10:30 - ? Could be wave riding, people watching, socializing.

? - ? Sunset watering the yard, cocktail time. Check my accounts.

? -? Let's think about dinner? A lady friend? Here, or let's go out.



Day in day out. It's perfect. Ask a Canadian.

Don't ask me.



Not a life I would want..



No purpose to it.


What is your purpose? Bet I could guess?

You couldn't accurately guess the number ten if you were staring at your hands.

Old Jock has worked for that railroad a long time. It probably pays decent, but it is normal to get a little sick of even a good job after a two or three decades.

How much more sick of his job would iron horse jockey be if he didn't have a job with a good salary and benefits like so many people have to cope with.

As far as pay and benefits go for blue collar workers, it's the gold standard.



It is a stressful place to work though. Transport Canada has been responsible for a lot of that stress over the past twenty years with never ending new rules. American veterans who took over the company four years ago can take credit for the rest of the slumping morale at CP.

You guys haul some really dangerous stuff right through major cities. The public believes hiring another federal employee to oversee another redundant rule that you will no doubt find a way around makes everyone safer.

Been there done that I did learn a valuble lesson that making   large amounts of income/money and expensive toys does not make one happy though it was in fact working outisde and  going to diffrent sites and working with intresting eople that made it fun.



Now i am kinda in  limbo since  where I wnat to go back and live in small town much like Houston B.C. whjere I was born and riased but  the problem is fiding  jobs in those  regions yet the upside is   housing prices are  not crazy.



Would love to have nice old school but modren cabin/home with some acerage  in the  Cariboo Chilcotin Coast Region.



 TBH the Okanagan valley is  great but seems many people have the same Idea to move there or own a place there thus it is growing like crazy and  Summerland and Peachland are losing that small town feel it seems.

No, you couldn't..



It's not about drinking, fun and me, me, me..



I guess that's okay for a retired person..



On second thought, no it isn't..



Living for one's own pleasure is a waste of a life.


Go easy on the old fella, he only has limited time left in this world!

He's not very bright, but I hope he can live to a ripe old age. I hope everyone can.

He's already at a ripe old age and that Alzheimer's of his seems to get worse by the day.   :sad:
