i have been sitting here all day. i'm a consultant on contract and paid by the hour, so i have to stay here all day even though they have nothing for me to do right now. i've been browsing the web aimlessly since 9am, and it's getting a bit old... i don't like being idle, it makes me very self conscious :crash:

oh well, it beats manual labor...

Having fun, making lots of money, and staying in shape doing it sure does suck:rolleyes: .

i've done some rotten manual labor in the past. unloading 80 pound bags of damp, dirty laundry from trucks and operating machinery that fails any safety requirements the county / state is too lazy to enforce ... oh and shoveling gravel for 8 hours a day in 95 degree heat ... i couldn't really see doing either of these things when my body is dead after 60 miles of pre-work riding ...

but there definitely is good manual labor, just none i've been fortunate enough to do.

Different strokes for different folks I guess. I've done my fair share of hard and dirty work, and perhaps more, but I've never minded. Pays the bills, and I like it better than sitting around. I suppose commuting with a bike would sort of even out the equation in any case.
