It’s where i currently live, for those of you who dont know govan, its a pretty ran down area of the south side of glasgow, however it wasnt always like this, during the age of scottish ship-building, it was booming with industry, and alot of the ship yard workers lived here. Then as we know, scottish ship building went on the decline due to many factors and ships arent in great demand anymore, sad to see yes for a country that was once so proud with its ship building industry, effectively losing its national identity. 

Anyway, back to present time, current gocan is a fucking SHITEHOLE, its pretty much became a dumping ground for all the lowlifes of the day, such as yer every-day junkie! Now one thing i am not, is snobby, like ive said before, im yer standard sort of guy, got a deccent job, pay my taxes, pay my rent and council tax, and other bills and can save and spend, but i dont consider myself as anything special in that sense, as theres many decent folks like myself out there in the same sort of situation, yer most likely one of them if yer still read this and not thinking im a total arsehole…

Anyway, i fucking hate snobs, cant stand the upper class looking down at workers like myself, for example, was at a party in the west end once and was talking about football to a mate, this rich little dick with his up himself attiude said football is for working class, stuff like that does my nut, infact i’d quite like to grab there AYEfones and ram it into there eye’s! Cunts! However i guess they are harmless and just live in there own wee worlds…

But my god do i hate the other end of the spectrum, yer giro grabbing, shop-lifting smacked out scumbags fucks they are, i work and pay tax, for what? these bastards to get there rent paid for them, get there mehpadone for free, get a fucking giro and dont even attempt to get a job, im sorry but people like that in my eyes should be put in fucking labour camps or atleast in a tottally sealed section of land much like escape from new york. There nothing but a plauge on society, a blackhole where our hard earned cash is thrown into, when it could be spent on better things.

Anyway, i was in the post office after work today as i had to do a few things, and it must of been giro day, as the place was stowed with the low life degenerates they are, i was just waiting in the que to be served and one jumps infront of the full que, now thats one thing i fucking HATE, so i just rip off my headphones and shout to the low life fuck, in a fucking silent post office, “HAWL YOU YA FUCKING PRICK, THE FUCK YE THINK YER DAIEN? END OF THE QUE YA FUCKING WANK” Everyone turns round and looks at me haha, but nobody says anything, but the fucking prick that tryed to skip was like ” eh awrite sorry mate, just ye know, in a hurry n that” I DONT CARE IF YER IN A FUCKING HURRY YA FUCKING DICK, END OF THE QUE THEY WERE MADE FOR A FUCKING REASON YA KNOB! Honestly, what is it with junkies? do they think there invisible? Fucking aids ridden cunt he was! Hurry for what? To get smacked out yer tits? The fact that annoys me, the post office is in a shitey attempt at a shopping center at govan cross, which so happens to be next to the job centre, so they all hang about there, on all days, its like an army of fucking zombies, hopefully someone goes bruce campbell on there arse one day and wipes the fuckers out, the amount of sights you see there is sickening! Yet has anyone ever noticed junkies always have new shoes? They’ll wear old, shite stained tracksuits, but they’ll have brand new shoes? its a fucking joke, these people are lowest of the low, sub-human if you will!

Safe to say, this year, i do plan on moving somewhere a bit nicer.

Sooo, tomorrow i have my pre-fica test, which is the basically a dry run of the test i will be doing in 6 months time to fully qualify me as an electrician, not actually nervous about it to be honest, as i found out, all the information you need for the test is on a bit of paper they give you, and you are allowed to take in (its effectively fool-proof).

Never the less though, i wont be taking this for granted, im just wanting it out the way as for the fact that i can finally do something else in life!

Now, some of you may be thinking, are you smoking fucking crack or something?! no, im not, i would just like a change of direction career wise, yes my job pays well, and there will always be a demand for tradesmen, but ill be honest, it isn’t something i’m actually quite excited about doing everyday, don’t get me wrong, its a great career, i just think there’s more to life out there and i want to do something i can be passionate about, money isn’t everything!

Problem is now, what do i chose? what do i do? Physical work i like! What i dont like is;

Office work; a load of shit, hate pen pushing, its for fucking morons who havent seen the real world and like to hide in there own wee PC bubbles, get wankered on a fri/sat and have the same chat over and over again, nah fuck that, thats just a load of shit.

Kitchens; Now i worked in a kitchen for a while with some of my best friends as a favour, dont get me wrong, as it was for some good friends i dealt with it, i did my job, but fuck ever doing that again, 60hours a week on a poor salary is bullshit in my eyes, ive seen illegals being paid more.

Hospitals; Not worked with patients, however ive worked building hospital wards, and got some friends in the medical profession, and the sights and stories ive seen are enough to put me off, plus i fucking hate going into them at the best of times!

Soo where does it bring me? i can accept i’ll have to go back into education, i left school with next to fuck all, but i can pick up things easy, and i’ve done my graft to get myself into a decent platform. But for a next career? 

Only things that really appeal to me are;

Football coaching; I love football, im passionate about it, but ive got no skill, and a really shit first touch, however i can understand the tactical side, its what i like, how teams set up, how coaches deal with players, how coaches change tactics when things change in a game etc. That i love, as its never the same twice, obviously  i would have to go and work with kids, which i wouldnt mind, football can change lives, just finding a decent employer, or even getting one would be a fucking killer.

Punditry; Again much like with coaching, i like obvserving the tatical side of the game, its brillaint, and ive tryed doing match reports before, which i find fun! However english and grammer are really not my strong point, was not interested in school, it just did my nut in, and journalism is VERY cut throat, but can be soo rewarding, but in saying that aswell, ive delt with enough arseholes in life soo far.

Psychology; I find it soo fucking interesting, but working in a hospital, no fucking chance, there no fucking chance im washing people and looking after dying folk, no chance in hell!

Physiotherapy; Seems a cool job, alot of people do it though, but i couldnt do it in a hospital, would have to be for sports!

Anyone out there got any recomendations, feel like im hitting crossroads in life here and i need to take the next road!

Peace out
