Changing Career
at 12:33 9 Jan 2024

After 25 years of working in the same field I've slowly reached the point where I hate everything about it.

I tried changing the focus but nope, still hate it. Being deliberately vague, it's office based but very niche.

Has anyone looked to change career in their 40s? It will probably have to remain office based but a more general role.

It has affected my mental health for a number of years and it's only so often you can change employer before realising its probably the job itself.

We've just got a Sky Sports for 6 months on a deal and Ipswich never do well when I watch them on TV.

Streaming recommendations - covid
at 10:35 9 Nov 2021

Hi all looking for some streaming recommendations. I have Netflix, amazon, Disney and Now TV. I enjoy pretty much anything apart from teen dramas and comedy.

Have been feeling a little unwell since Saturday. Work up yesterday morning with a bad cough so thought I should lake an LFT. Showed a positive result!

So I'm double jabbed and symptomatic so will be self isolating until next Friday.

Currently feels like a bad head cold.

In the last few months I have noticed people not wearing masks as much and even many men not washing their hands after using public toilets. Basic cleanliness seems lost on some people.

Season Tickets
at 07:40 4 May 2020

With everything going on I have not really been on here much or paying attention to anything ITFC related.

An email popped up confirming my purchase of a season ticket for 2020/21. Now I had no intention of buying this ticket as I have made some major life changes and cannot afford a ticket at the moment.

Will I be able to cancel this ticket with the club by phoning today?

I don't recall receiving any communication about season tickets at all

Tyreese Simpson Chants

Well done to the muppets who recycled the "Toto Nsiala" chant for Simpson last night.

Even doubled down on a round of "Tyreese Simpson - he's hung like a horse"

Improving My Mental Health
at 08:56 21 Feb 2020

I have suffered with Mental Health issues for a number of years now. Bottled them up for around 8 or so years and they all came flooding out in 2017. These worsened last year when I found myself on the brink of suicide. Thankfully I called the Samaritans instead of acting on how I was feeling.

I have been fighting a losing battle with work stress, depression and anxiety. My job is very stressful and is also quite niche with not many transferable skills to different roles.

Recent counselling has made me realise that if I took my work stress away I could concentrate on my mental health and personal relationships so I have decided to leave my job and try my hand at self employment and temping. Money is no longer a concern for me, we will have enough other income to cover basic needs and we have savings.

I will have to give up non-essential expenses though and this will include my season ticket for next year. Football has always been an escape but I need to tackle my issues head on now.

TWTD is a place I have found oddly comforting and the infrequent posts about mental health and the understanding people here have shown has been comforting to me,

Wycombe have gained...
at 14:27 27 Nov 2019

9 points from goals scored in the last 10 minutes of games this season.

It was noticeable they upped their tempo in the last few minutes. Seemed to be their plan to let the opposition tire and then go for it

"Shoes off if you hate the scum?"
at 10:57 12 Aug 2019

Sorry but when did this become a thing? Suddenly around 20-30 trainers that could do with being introduced to odour eaters being waved in the air was quite frankly ridiculous.

Enjoyed being back at FPR as a season ticket holder but this did confuse me.

Gwion Edwards
at 22:02 5 Aug 2018

My wife bought me a hospitality package for the game yesterday for my birthday. Got to meet Wark, Holland and Stockwell before the game and Gwion Edwards as Man of the Match afterwards.

He seemed humble and genuine and it was nice to see a complete lack of ego. Seemed a little in awe of being picked MOTM but if he keeps that level of performance up I am sure he will hget used to it.
