So, did you do anything interesting these days? Or just relaxing?

[asandir]

sure did, went waveskiing on the old ocean, several times, went done to the end of the Bussleton Jetty, which is freaking long, got some pics that I'll upload when I get the chance. It's the longest wooden structure in the southern hemisphere apparently, wiki is here. went to the underwater observatory as well

"Underwater Observatory
The observatory was opened in 2003 at a cost of AUD $3.5 million. [citation needed] Since that time, over 250,000 people have visited the attraction. The underwater observatory is located 1.8 km from shore - almost at the end of the Busselton Jetty - and can accommodate up to 40 people at a time in its 9.5 m diameter observation chamber. Descending 8 metres below sea level, visitors can view the corals and fish life through eleven viewing windows.

You did not waste your time I see I should get to go somewhere with friends this Sunday weather permitting.

[asandir]

indeed not, it was a great time

I study economics, it's in my veins

I can help you with that... let me get my shank.

Only 5000kr from breaking the record in sales today
Would've been so nice to get that extra credit

[Kalah]

Cool. I don't seem to get much economic credit like that; we sell things and the boss sometimes says the sales were very good, but the fresh foods dept. doesn't really measure stuff in money.

The indication I got that I was doing a good job personally, was that one of our regulars came over about a year after I started working there, and he said things had improved a lot since I got there.

[Milla aka. the Slayer]

My boss called so I told her all about the great numbers. In my mind I really wanted to play it cool and wait till she got the numbers from the distribution this wednesday so she would be surprised and comment me and my coworkers on the great work we had done but I just couldn't wait that long

And I wouldn't call it economic credit. It's more like prices from sponsors and such

Now, I just hope they don't top my sales tomorrow...

[Kalah]

Hehee... wait 'till summer and tourist season, right? Or are people renting/buying more movies during the bleek winter months, perhaps...

[Milla aka. the Slayer]

During the bleek winter months. And with just a bit of rain, everybody wants to rent movies The colder and wetter the better for us..

[Kalah]

As opposed to us, who sell more food (for barbecue etc.) when it's hot and sunny.

[Milla aka. the Slayer]

Ah, that's great. Though come Christmas and Holiday related parties you should be doing very well IMO..

[Kalah]

Yes, and whenever there's something special on sale. Or a season starts. For instance when the fresh lamb meat comes in september, that causes people to flock in.

[Milla aka. the Slayer]

Brr...I hate lamb. Smells funny

[Kalah]

Really...? Perhaps I should treat you to some lamb steak. Last time I made some, I made people who hate lamb and hate garlic... go for a second helping.

[Milla aka. the Slayer]

Great, you try that. I doubt you'll succeed though. I'm a toughy once I've made up my mind about something eatable

[Kalah]

Well, I usually say I'll try anything, and if I don't like it, I won't eat it again. Guess you shouldn't try my lamb if you're not into that sort of thing at all, 'cause it takes quite a few hours to cook it.

[Milla aka. the Slayer]

I don't get what you're getting at
You're saying that I wouldn't like it because it takes a long time to cook?

[Ethric]

I wonder how it'd go if I got extra credit for saving governemnt money in my job... nah, the pleasure of writing rejections is it's own reward (my job consists of, basically, deciding if people get moeny or not).
