How about "NOT earned lotsa of money AND no time to enjoy it". :sweat:
 

life is strange sometimes, spend alot of time to earn cash to spend on things we hardly had time to enjoy. :confused:
 

got enough sleep got life, not enough sleep... :complain:
 

After reading this post in the afternoon....and was wondering in the last couple of hours....it was like a wake up call.....we only live once....it really not worth to be a slave of $$$....I am dead seriously thinking of handling in my resignation letter on monday.....last day of work will be 1st Dec....there goes my D700 fund and 9 years stint in the company :sweat:

I have another 48hours to consider :sweat:

lol, wouldn't that be too hasty? its "amusing" how such a thread could lead 1 to make up his/her mind to leave current job at the drop of the hat... :sweat:

Impulsive? Maybe.....probably due to unhappy event in the office during the day.....But the tot has been lingering for years....this thread could be the catalyst....anyhow....48 hours cooling off period....it is a big decision nevertheless :p

oic, so there were events that lead up to the tot of leaving. u might 1 2 sound others out before the decision is made. i cant give any advice, as i've been in similiar quit/stay situation.

all that best, hope ur next job turns out differently.
 

Was at Comex just now....hand itchy to touch the D700...the feel was so solid....the shutter was so fast....so responsive.....the view finder was so huge and so bright....and can even see the nice bokeh with the 50mm f1.8....I just feel that it's unbelievable to get a bad shot with this cam....tio poison jialat jialat...damn it :sweatsm:

Come to my work thing, vending off my anger here really helps to cooling off thing a bit....I guess quiting without a job might be too risky in current job market, so have decided to hang on while seaching for new one :lovegrin: This probably the best of both world that I can think off as I can still affort a D700 by year end....bo pian....the dark side is too strong :sweatsm:
