hi all
i have been here for bout six months, and finally decided to do an intro.
hi, im pete, petey, pineapple pete and various other things. born 5 / 4 / 89. living in melbourne.
I do alot of poi, bit of staff, bit of doubles, cross staff and fire eating. i want to learn rope dart, flynt got me hooked, and im tryin to self teach 3 section staff.
I like: fire, magic, juggling and all things musical
dislikes: seafood *ick*
ive been doing magic for a bit over a year now. i do alot of sleight of hand card magic, aswell as coins and anything else i can get my hands on.
in my spare time i like to do escapology. I can pick my way out of a pair of US police handcuffs in under 10 seconds, and get out of a straight jacket underwater
thanks for reading me,
cheers, pete

packing vegies??
do you lay they head to toe to get more in the box? Are they live vegies?? or dead? or "stunned"??I'm intrigued Sir Pete - tell us more. And do they have another department packing carnivores? Full Vegans? What sort of a company are you going to work for my man?!

I have several large jars of the stuff. I actually like it... a little. And don't tell anyone I admitted to it.

uhm, mostly stunned i think.. i believe head to toe will be the best method, but we'll soon see.. i think the company mentioned they had something to do with 'soylent green'... whatever that is

i got up at 5:45 this morning. left the house by 6:05. got on the bus at 6:23, off the bus just after 6:35. walked until 7:10. started work at 7:20, finished work at 5pm. then repeated the 'getting to work' sequence, in the opposite order.
and tomorow.. i get to do it all again

totally.. i guess it will all be worth it though, when im flying round the mediteranean on a moped saying 'ciao'.. or something 
three days of work.. im starting to get used to it.. surely it should never be necessary to start work at 7:30am... ever

You're right there mate, no amount of money in the world will have me working that early. I thought you were going to try and get a job in a bar?

I've started work at 7:30 in the morning for the past 3 years.
You get used to it. The only time it bugs me is when my body wakes me up at that time on a Saturday or Sunday...THATS CRIMINAL!Welcome to life after school!

I agree. I get up by 6.20 on work days, and on weekends I can't sleep in beyond 8.30-9ish. Unless I'm drunk the night before. Or awake the whole night.
Blah, I hate my job.

yeah, i can tell its going to happen, it used to happen when i was at school too... but this will just be more annoying
yeah simon, i still want a job in a bar.. but i could start this straight away, so i figured making some money is better than none

But then again, I'm not getting paid 
How is the work otherwise? Do the veggies complain much?

aww nat
im hoping i get used to it.. it seems quite unlikely thoughthe work is kinda of mind numbing.. most of it is pretty easy, carrying boxes and all that.. some of its kinda difficult, like putting lettuces in plastic sleaving, so you need to pay attention to what your doing, which makes it even more boring
