Re: Leaving Forever tomorrow.
Oerdin,
Good luck on finding a permanent job and losing weight.
Though I would take issue of saying time spent on Apolyton is a waste.
Nobody ever works every waking hour. People need breaks. Besides, a person can only remain very productive a few hours a day anyway. So the only question here is how you use your time. Working out and looking for a job takes around 8 hours a day at most. So you still have another 8 hours at your disposal. If you don't use the time surfing the Net you probably end up watching TV or playing a computer game.
Another thing is, have you ever learned something from Poly? Either directly from another poster, or indirectly because you went looking for information on the Web or elsewhere in order to refute something. Perhaps you learned a strange word or two from molly bloom? Maybe your views became more moderate or extreme through debates with the other side?
BTW if you need help with your CV just post it here(\__/) 07/07/1937 - Never forget

Oerdin - good luck. I will seriously miss your posts, they are well thought out, and I go out of my way to read your threads, even on topics I would normally avoid. Just remember, the help you gave us - me and my sister - when her husband was killed really helped her out in those first few hours. You have done good here on OT.The worst form of insubordination is being right - Keith D., marine veteran. A dictator will starve to the last civilian - self-quoted

RL is always more important than "just" an Internet-Forum.
So take your time off to archive your Goals in Real Life until you think you can afford some time on Apolyton again (without affecting RL) and then return
