VC in 2011

[VampireChick]

Yeah my mind is slowly changing to the idea........might just read a book instead!

Oi! Put another layer on! It's not as cold as up the mount :pfft:

Hehe good call. Gloves, thermals and beanie is all ready for me to go.

[runveerun]

Do IIITTTTTT!!!! You won't regret it I promise!

[VampireChick]

For sure. The olds wanna take me out for dinner tonight (hhmmmmm steak) so I'll jog to their hotel and get ready there. It'll be a 40-45 min stint which is decent enough for me (I'm not much of a runner or jogger for that matter!)

[VampireChick]

So I get pulled into the HR office, and the Manager tells me I'm the highest internet user in the company! (Ok, so there's only 30 of us, but still). They ask me about this bodybuilding site I keep visiting and basically tell me I really need to cut it out. So basically it's only nightly visits from me.

Damn thats harsh - at least you haven't dropped off completely. One good thing about where i'm working is that we can surf pretty much anything & no one says boo.

Freakin' cool! :grin:

[Chillicat]

Oh no that's a bugger. Every now and then we get a company wide email saying to ease up on use, and they list types of things we shouldn't be doing (super high bandwidth stuff mainly that I don't do), so I keep hoping that I'll escape the personal talk :shifty: It's sure to happen sooner or later - daily visits to bodybuilding and snowboarding sites are clearly not work related

[VampireChick]

Haha yeah I used to get away with it in my last couple of jobs. I'm a bit of an internet addict so it'll take a while to get used to!

LMFAO! I got the exact same lecture about my usage too.. 'Cept they got bodybuilding websites confused with nudity. They thought I was looking at porn :doh:

Haha, I use the school internet to check the forums during the day. People think i['m lookin at porn too :pfft:

[runveerun]

I'm not allowed to use the internet at work, they are super mean, we actually have to ask if we can go online and can only do it in our own time! Bloody nazi work!!

Day off today - and heading up the mountain this weekend for two days (hopefully) of some quality snowboarding.

I think this may also be 'the weekend' to get into the park for some jumps and rails. Time to grow a pair of testicles.

Oooh have fun! I can't seem to get off a chairlift without injuring myself :roll: , so I think I'll steer well clear of the park - but in awe of people who can do all that stuff.

First time I ever attempted snowboarding, I sprained my wrist in the first 10 mins :clap:

[VampireChick]

Well it was an unsuccessful weekend in Ohakune, the weather totally caved in and we only got about three runs down Rock Garden on Whakapapa. So we've decided to take this Friday off and head up again this weekend (I will get into the park if it's the last thing I do!).

Oh god lol, thats nothing. My last work they tracked our internet activity, and it was just before I was leaving and I basically got called into a meeting and asked how I possibly could have done any work because all i was looking at was xxx and bodybuilding!! AHAHAH.. lucky I handed my resignation in the next day.

My current work, we have unlimited internet, and well, let me tell you I take FULL advantage of that

[VampireChick]

Did back and biceps yesterday but forgot to write everything down. I've been working on the chin ups (But not having the same success as Chillicat!). My bf has been using his hand to kind of bounce me back up while I pull up - so did about 3 sets of 3. I don't think I'll work on pull ups til I've really got a good grip on these.

It's times like these you need some wise words from Rachel Hunter: 'It won't happen overnight, but it will happen'
