what if you enjoy what you do? :/

what I get done at work is far more productive that doing shit at home. its more leisurely, but dont get that feeling of having actually done something. Dalai Lama is right, but missed on the important factor of productivity. "back in the day" where people worked to survive or worked (harder than now) to keep family afloat, it was different but now... you can easily do nothing if you want. so productivity and sense of accomplishment are important factors.

You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

Yeah that was just a random quote I got off google

It was more in reference to Ishan

I see too many friends with degrees, who go through all that work and end up either unemployed or just an ordinary job not related to their degree. And as such has been a waste.

So Ishan should work his butt off (doesn't have to be academically) to put himself in the best position possible to secure a full time job after he finished uni

The future; so scary.

But I do agree with points raised. Gotta make the most of this once-only life; career and lifestyle wise.

I agree. But that does assume you won't be productive with your spare time...

Also, productivity and a sense of accomplishment doesn't necessarily = happiness...though it may for some. A life enjoyed can be a matter of feeding the senses, non-stop, with enjoyable stimuli!

I think that everyone should try sitting on both sides of the leisure vs work debate and then decide. Work an overworked and highly paid job; be unemployed for 6 months. Preferably in that order. Then decide where the happy medium lies :thumbsup:

I did the working like a dog, and being a bludger for 6 months.

Didn't like both. Must be my shitty job and lack of money to enjoy during the bludging.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
