Hey princess I think I know what you mean. Some show people treat u like s...t while they drink at the bar. I thought times had changed but obviously not.

I worked this weekend in a Joint, was some of the best times i've had working the showgrounds. The people I worked with really made it enjoyable for me and I would work for them again any day of the week.

All I need to do now is get that Arabian Derby theme song out of my head!!!

Who were you working for Hurri, Hennesy's?

Hurricane · Post by **Hurricane** » Sun Oct 26, 2008 5:26 pm

Was meant to work on the Wave Swinger this weekend. But it blew the main hydraulic hose in the center shaft. I ended up working for the Trindalls though, some of the best people on the showgrounds for sure.

Great to hear mate, where abouts are you guys at the moment?

Hurricane · Post by **Hurricane** » Sun Oct 26, 2008 5:30 pm

I'm out of the tent and back in the luxury of my own home while everyone else is packing up the Cyber Party

Top Gunner14 · Post by **Top Gunner14** » Sun Oct 26, 2008 5:32 pm

Haha, nice. Good to be in the comforts of your own home. Not the best camping in a tent but it does depend on how big it is lol

Hurricane · Post by **Hurricane** » Sun Oct 26, 2008 5:33 pm

6 sleeper tent... took 3 hours to put up as it was a Royal Douchebag of a tent. Took around 2 minutes to pull down!

Top Gunner14 · Post by **Top Gunner14** » Sun Oct 26, 2008 5:37 pm

Haha, oh well, plenty of room. At least the taking down part wasn't too long. Always the worst part lol

Glad you enjoyed your experience, I used to love working Joints too, as I have stated before many time, love hearing my own voice lol

Hurricane · Post by **Hurricane** » Sun Oct 26, 2008 8:18 pm

Cheers Princess, i'm hoping it becomes a permanent experience one day! Maybe I could see if they'd let you work for a day... for old times sake

Can you imagine both of us working in a joint!

I'd have to say I'm pretty handy in a joint myself. There are some people on here who know me in person and probably think I'm a dick for big noting myself but the fact is, effort is rewarded in a joint - something a lot of people don't seem to get.

yea Vee, what I have been saying around here for ages, no one thinks you are dick Vee,

, when you are good at something go for it the takings will always tell you how good you are.

Lol Hurricane, why thankyou for your fabulous offer, I would have to be seated somewhere in a comfy chair, just chatting away to the crowd, while I had other people doing the back breaking stuff, sorry but those are my conditions lol

oh and paid a percentage of the takings

(50%)

Hurricane · Post by **Hurricane** » Wed Oct 29, 2008 3:47 pm

Lol, I think the 50% of the takings idea... hmmm you'd have to ask my boss on Sunday

princess · Post by **princess** » Wed Oct 29, 2008 5:34 pm

Lol I bet I could increase the takings

ridefan · Post by **ridefan** » Thu Oct 30, 2008 11:23 am

yer but if you get 50% of the profit you get 50% of the expence to!

Hurricane · Post by **Hurricane** » Thu Oct 30, 2008 11:50 am

Lol, qantas isn't getting anything! I'm stuck at brisbane airport as they decided to cancel my flight

Oh well... they upgraded me to business class
