This week has been a hard week. I started a new job, which is actually a downgrade, but I only took it because it's a permanent job with the Government so security wise it's very beneficial (I was temporary before). I started my new job on Monday and I guess I just hate the work+ it's a bit of a learning curve. So far everything that can go wrong has gone wrong mainly just minor stuff, but it has been frustrating and my colleague is a 58 year old who looks in her 70's...asking her about past workers there's been 5 people in the last 5 years and in my head I was thinking I've been here less than a week and I already want to find another job!!!

So yeah it's been a shit week. Drank way too much alcohol (last week I was drinking to celebrate this week I've been drowning my sorrows everyday except today), but I'm just going to put it behind me now and focus on the positives and start going to the gym instead of the pub after work. Travel wise the job is a bit of a bitch as well, but I'm just going to suck it up and try and make the most of this opportunity.

Training wise I played pick up 2 days on the weekend and did around 30 ME jumps. I need new shoes, but I'm going to hold off purchasing any until around October once this rain fucks off.

I ended up getting sick a couple of days ago and have this nasty cold and very chesty cough. I've taken the day off work today even though it's only my first week, which doesn't give a good impression, but I'm seriously run-down. I spent the whole weekend in bed drinking teas and lots of fluids. Hopefully I feel better tomorrow.

bad luck to get sick right after starting the new gig. if it makes you feel any better, my brother has MRSA in his ankle and my friend had a case of strep so bad last week that when he went to the doctor, the doctor went and got all the medical staff together to look at his throat. it literally bled. and he had a 104-degree fever.
Muscles are nonsensical they have nothing to do with this bullshit.

Yeah it's definitely not a very good look having a day off after just 1 week. I was hoping that I'd recover over the weekend, but I didn't recover in time. I'll be at work tomorrow. Sorry to hear about your friend and your brother. It's ironic that you mention MRSA because that's my new job- booking surgeries at a Hospital. I don't know all the terminology, but I've been taught that if somebody is a MRSA they have an infection and need to be placed last on the theatre list.

I guess that's why I'm just so disappointed with this job is that its in health care so unless you're a doctor or a nurse it's a real dead end job. My plan is to work here for 6 months and then transfer to another Government department hopefully in Treasury or Finance, but even in a social area like Housing etc. would  be fine because at least there is chances for career progression.

holy shit @ the strep story.

growing up i had strep at least 6 times, iirc.. sounds like they were on the verge of death.

as for staph/mrsa.. remember i got a staph infection once after dunking at my favorite indoor gym? Then Lance sent me bactroban, .. went through a few tubes of that before it finally disappeared. Sometimes my left armpit starts feeling weird, which is the area that I had that staph infection, and it always freaks me out.. makes me think it's somehow lying dormant in my body ready to wreck me again. I looked it up recently actually .. I dno, some sources say it can linger in your body for a very long time.

did you contact it at your work (or not sure)?

The sickest I EVER got was when I worked at Memorial Sportscenter which was affiliated with a hospital.. I somehow managed to get "whooping cough" in that environment.  Uber sterile environments can be scary af .. if things survive there, you know they are legit.

Played bball for 3 hours a bit of shooting but mainly pick up. I was able to dunk today on almost every attempt and felt 'bouncy'. I tried getting my friends to throw me lobs, but the timing was always out of place. My bodyweight is down to 85kg.

I played pick up for 3 hours. I ended up spaining my ankle in the last game, but it's not too bad. I'll be able to play next week.
