Just thought I would share my news..............

I'm resigning in the am ! I'm shitting my pants a bit but it's got to be done. The thread title is a joke because I actually like the job - I've been doing it for 10 years so I must !

But, the time has come to move on. i'm going back to Uni part time and working on site the rest of the time. I'm excited but it's a big step so...................... wish me luck !



















well go on then.....














I'm waiting............................

Midlife crisis

You only get one life, if you want to try something else, then you have to go for it, good luck.
What are you going to study at uni?

good luck mate, your never to old to start a new career.

admit it, you're only doing this for the uni birds aint ya?



good luck, onwards and upwards 'n'all that.

good luck!

Good on yer Baldylocks, always a tough descion to make but a worthwhile one I'm sure.

What subject are you going to do?

the tard blew-up again?

Good luck bud,changed a lot meself,its always a good learning experience.

Good luck Baldy

studying Quantity Surveying - hardly rock n roll but there you go.

handed my notice in today - finish 2moro. how cool is that.

Have fun. And the family is okay with that?

That's a very bold decision bald, in view of the sprogs.

I went to Uni as a 'mature student' at 27 when my daughter was 18 months old, it was hard financially, but I got the first that I was after, (although it might as well be written on toilet paper in view of what I do now).

It's good that you are off to study something of practical and vocational use. If the consistent quality of your posts are anything to go by then you're obviously not lacking in the old cerebal region. I'm sure you'll piss it.

aye - they're fine................................. i think



at 35 i suddenly feel very old but - you've gotta take these chances as they come along. I've made a good living out of Sales but I just dont like it and I don't want to spend the next 30 years doing something I don't like.

cheers for the good wishes tho

Baldylocks, remember 1 very important thing.

even if this doesn't turn out to be what you expected, the thing is you've tried, far better to try and fail then never try at all!

If you don't do this now you'll spend the rest of your life thinking what if.....


Once again, good luck!

Baldylox - Good Luck!

Remember the title of Rossi's autobiography - "What if I had never tried it...."

My bother-in-law went to Uni at 26 with no A levels and few O levels having been a brickie, a welder and a truckie. He graduated in Computing in 1997 and now, at 40, is enjoying living and contracting in Brisbane, Australia, earning decent cash and taking his hols in Thailand (he is single, so why the hell not!).

As Arrabbiata says, you hardly seem short of brain cells, so hopefully the world'll be your oyster in a few years. Especially given your choice of subject.
