I am just curious to see what everyone elses hang ups are(could be good to see what others go throught on a small or large basis).Ok il start then shall i,Home firstly my main place of stay is at my pc, this is apparent by the huge stacks of unopened mail and general clutter,along side these , i have a huge amount of pharmacy drugs which i never seem to focus on long enought to put away in the cupboard, many just opened wrappers, just junk really. now when im having a good day out comes the bin bags and i shovel everything i can think of which will not be useful(not an easy task , considering im looking at a small box which a coffee mug came in and i am not sure how that missed the last clearout,possible uses for this i dont know!!). so i make the start half way through the clear out il remember something insignificant, and all of a sudden im in another room of the house digging out computer parts or the likes and im on a new mission,as most of u know these kind of diversions can be fatal to the first plan of action.So any where between 5 mins and 4 hours later il appear back by my pc greeted by a half full bin bag and the primary job,unfortunately during my sabatical to the other room i have managed my own particular "huricane" effect to the tidiness of that place,ok the dilema is now building, do i (a); finish tidying the pc area or (b); make some semblence of order in the other room.

Now im not sure if its just me but at times like those i choose either (c) or (d) (c); make coffee and watch tv (ignoring other room and pc area) (d);sit next to black bin liner and return to pc and promise my self to finish the job tomorrow.

That kinda covers my organising skills at home, now on to my next topic Work, now i seem to be the collector of many fine professions, when i start a job for the first time in any field, its fantastic,the best job ever, good challenge,brill. For me approximately 8-16 weeks later,it is the dullest job ever created for man/woman , obviously the job was made by some crazy sadist, because i cannot get the job done, i slow to snail paces and an 8 hour shift turns into a week(at least thats what it seems to me anyways)and my attention is anywhere but in the job at hand.
My career has gone along these lines,Electrical engineer,Marine engineer,chef ing,waiting tables,factory work(zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz) and shop work,once the initial challenge has gone so has my attention,i have actually found myself going from liking a job to hating it within an hour, that is without anyone bothering me too(not having a reason to hate it).Now during these fateful positions i have found my moods changing with the amount of time within the position,when i was engineering i loved to work for a couple of days here and there different locations, but as soon as a week in the same place occurred , tools started to fly as fast as my temper would, the smallest of issues was the end of the world,that is the reason i quit engineering.
Now starting a new career, cooking that was nice for a while but the attention timer was counting down on that ,also was the temper again, most of the people i met thought i was insane,one day im the enegiser bunny,travelling the hotplates at 300mph, non problematic,next day just lighting a hotplate could be an issue.

Ok that has given me a chance to prattle on,it would be nice to hear from you guys out there,to get a chance to know what you are like on a personal basis,and what your main hangups are, maybe humerous maybe sad but interesting to know and share.

oh by the way i dont know if this will help u gain what kind of personality i have but my friends call me random dave lol
