Category: My Past

Well.. What a bizarre week! First off monday and tuesday flew by – followed by a wierd wednesday, thursday and friday. But becasue i wasnt aat MMX3 till wednesday, it didnt feel like my week started till then, so it now currently feels like a wednesday, but its actually a friday. That friday feeling has gone, cos my body has no idea what day it is. It is friday isnt it?

I havent had time to check up on my mates blogs either, i love reading about their lives and how they are getting on. With my busy life it means i can stay in touch at my convenience. I know that sounds terribly selfish, but i just dont have the time i’d like to keep in touch with everyone. I think ill make that a new years resolution. To make more time for my mates.

I have a weekend off this weekend, well, i asked for the weekend off to be honest. I kinda wish i could work every weekend at the mo, as i could really do with the money. But i want to spend time with my beautiful girlfriend, so il have to stick to one weekend on, one weekend off.

In preperation for being broke, im slightly increasing my overdraft. I hate doing it, cos its jsut getting further into debt, but i have things i gotta buy this weekend that are important, and expencive.. Like car tax, and transferring my number plate over.. cars are so expencive!

Also, my clio sold for £330.56 on ebay! Im rate happy with that, i expected about half that! There was a right bidding war going off, and in the end the price increased by about £70 in the last 40 seconds! The guy who has won it has no feedback, but i got a message off the person who came second, sayin if the top guy drops out, he’ll pay the winning bid for it. So either way, i havent lost. woo!

Im gonna mince about for half a hour now, as i only get paid for the work i do now. So i have to stay till after 5 or i end up not earning enough money.

Peace out for now guys, ill probably update over weekend if icget chance. If not ill update on monday.

Peace and love.

Well, this week has been a proper week. I did monday tuesday maxxd, its snow wednesday, and im at mmx3, and i will be tomorrow and friday too. This is how my weeks are going to be structured – and already i want to concentrate full time on maxxd stuff. MMX3 just bores me now.

Before, i would sit mincing about making myself look busy, as i was on the books and if there wasnt any work for me to do, then there was nothing i could do. Now, becasue im self employed and am invoicing them for the amount of hours im working, i cant mince about as if there is no work for me to do mark will tell me to go home! I need to work 24 hours at mmx3, at £7.50 a hour. That earns me enough (as well as my 1 shift a week on security) to pay my bills and buy food etc.

If i want to earn more i have to either do more security work (no no!) or do a few extra hours at mmx3 – that is until MMS starts paying us.

Like ive said a million times these next few months are really the deciding months, we are gonna set on a sales employee, and we are gettin someone from the college to work with us – and do admin type stuff. With them, david and myself – we should be able to get things off the ground pretty sharpish.

We need to get things rollin asap, as the office we are using is owned by a proper scitso (sp) who annoys us both, has no idea how to run a business – and is gettin on at (mainly) dave all the time. We cant create our empire in an enviroment like that, so as soon as possible we’ll be gettin a little office of our own.

Wow, i feel all grown up and shit..

Oh yeah, i  paid council tax today.. £104.90! Fuck!

Yes, i actually forgot about my blog. We have had two days on the directory, and i have been building our MMS website. We have been really busy and have been plodding on with stuff – so much so, i had forgotten to update my lovely weblog. We have been trying to stay off maxxd.com and other forums – so we can concentrate on making some cash money – and things are going great!

We have got to the stage where we are considering taking on a sales employee. Sami, our mate on maxxd has recently been made unemployed, and is trained in sales and telephone stuffs. Dave cant take on all the sales work himself, well he probably could but then we wouldnt be able to do everything else we want to do as well. Its a hard desision becasue if someone is working for maxxd, then they are depending on us for their wages – so obviously we cant mess up when it comes to paying them. At the end of the day tho if we were struggeling to fund the wages when that time came then we’d just have to sacrifce some of our own money. It would be a bummer, but it would be nessecery. Although, I cant see us being stuck for money after a full month of both dave and sami on the phones.

Life is about taking risks, and this is one of those risks. 

It feels amazing tho, to be working full time on something both me and dave are so passionate about. It also feels good, to look back and see where we were when certain people were still part of the team. They always put a downer on situations, always disagreed with things me and dave both agreed with – he was always the thorn in our side. Now he’s out the way, and things have never been better.

Its mad when you sit back and think, what if? What if we had of taken that offer of £100,000 and let that chap become the 4th director of maxxd, and let him start that online shop he wanted to do? What if we had never got that guy who left in to help us in the first place? Life is full of “What if’s?” but from my experience its better to get on with it, and forget the things you have missed, or passed in your life – and get on with the jobs and problems that face you currently and in your not too distant future.

Life’s for living, sleep when your dead.

And finally, id just like to inform anyone who reads this that i have fallen in love. She has been mentioned in my blog, and i have been going out with her officially for a month or so now, shes amazing, she makes me so happy, and if i was to draw my perfect partner, and list the qualities i would look for in them, she would fit the description perfectly. Oh yeah, did i say she could breakdance? Wow.

Lifes generally amazing right now, i love where i live, i love the fact me and my business partner are actually going ahead with our plans, and i love my girlfriend.

Can you feel the love?

It almost feels like i havent properly blogged for ages. I used to be able to sit here and pour my heart out, and think nothing of it. Now im paranoid about the people reading it. As i dont want to get judged.. psshh.. you know what? Fuck it…

Ive never given a fuck about censorship up to now, so i mgiht as well carry on that way. I mean, there isnt many people who dont know me off-line, and who read my blog? So anywone who really knows me knows that the things i write dont always define me. Im a nice person (i think) and a hard worker. My blog probbaly makes me out to be a moaning slacking mother bitch.. Shut up dave! (before you start!)
Right, lets get down to business. Im going to the cinema tongiht with gem to see a film called step up. Its about some dancers or something, and it looks like it might be smiliar to you got served, which in all fairness is a fucking awesome film. This is actually the first time we have been to the cinema together, so it should be fun 🙂

I really want to go see the Borat Movie, and Saw III. I have seen trailers for both (and wiggy is actually downloading Borat Movie now!) And they both look awesome. I just love borat, hes the best. I have one question tho.

How the hell does he keep a straight face, all the time? id end up making myself laugh so much!

Sacha is brilliant in talledega nights too, in fact he’s probably one of the funniest british tv presenters/actors ever! hes just class!

Today is my last day on the books at MMX3, as of next wednesday ui wont be an employee, i wil be a subcontractor. And i will invoice him instead of gettin paid normaly. Its a bit daunting, and to be fair i should lock myself away for a few weeks as i really cant be spending any money, but i have things to do so i have got to spend a bit. I could just do with winning about £500 just to sit it in my bank account and keep me going for a bit. I guess i could of not bough that car…. nah! 😀

Duncan has pissed me off today, some of his staff have been caught stealing from one of the building sites, And that could mean by by security company. So when i ask him to pay for my licence as his original cheque bounced, he went mad at me and moaned that i asked for a lift to work this weekend.
He pays his guards BOTTOM buck. Then expects them to drive 40 miles a day? And doesnt in ANY way want to contribute towards their petrol costs? Is it me or is that lame? He makes out that most people dont get travelling expences, someone please tell me hes wrong! I know that in the many jobs ive done ive had travelling expences refunded to me, has anyone else?

Just cos his guards are twats, doesnt mean he should take that shit out on me the balding homosexual. I guess when all you do is work, and dont pay yourself hardly anything – the stress would eventually mount up causing you to become a knobhead. So i guess its not all his fault.

If all go’s to plan we wont have to reply on anyone but ourselves soon, dave is plodding along nicely with the things he’s doing and im backin him up with banners and graphics and design work.

Together, we got this shit locked down, and we are gonna take things to the next level!
