boys, jobs and weekends

Yes the title covers all...

okay first, I have this mate at work that has been eyeing me off and hinting that he is interested in me. But like I said we are mates first - it all started about 3 months ago - when I was catching bus from plane 1 terminal to plane 2 terminal - this mate who I met that night was doing the same thing - also flying from west to east for RR - so we set down had a couple of scotches over the 4 or so hours - had a good chat - had a number of things in common. 5 weeks later we met each other again (several nights of seeing each other in a row) - had numberous beers together - had a number of good chats - had a number of moments - but nothing happened- and a number of meals together. He was counting at one stage how many times we had spoken to each other. Now 5-6 weeks later we catch up again - and we had a serious conversion last night - and he informed me that nothing is going to happen between the 2 of us - cos he likes us being mates, and he doesn't want to get involved with anyone he works with but technically we work at the same site but we don't work with each other.

He's saying one thing but he's behaviour in a way is illustrating something else my workmate - who met this mate due to me - not due to work - noticed the eyeing me off, he also convinced his workmates to go to the pub becuase I was going to be there - I am mates with his workmates now.

He also told me that I shouldn't lower my standards to include him into them. I just don't know!! BOYS!!!

Last weekend I went to a gas plant - cos I could - the tour was with mum's church - the priest and the Bishop, and 4 couples. So I went on the tour cos I had an interest in the process and it all - and I got offered a job - yes a job while going on a tourist visit of gas works.

Saying that in the last month had 5 job opportunities come and say g'day to me, in the order
of preference at the moment:
1. Occupational hygiene at Telfer - Relocate to Perth
2. Do a secondament on another mine site - ??
3. Process Engineer Gas Plant - Convince Mum and Dad not to sell the house - and move into it.
4. Environment Advisot at Telfer - Relocate to Perth
5. Business Partner in a Renewable Energy company - Relocate to Adelaide

another option is just discard all of the jobs above and going seeking...

So looking forward to next weekend - I have one of those weekends that we all need once in a while - one that contains nothing - yes nothing - and no one. No phones nothing- I will be completely out of reach - so looking forward to it -but I will be surrounded by things that I am comfortable being surrounded with etc.
