You have to choose one of the options.
The job is on a production line packing of boxes. 8 hour days.
You can't retire until you're 70.
1. Work 3 days pw for £500.
2. Work 5 days pw for £1500
3. Work 6 days pw for 20,000
4. Work 7 days pw for 100,000.
Id take option 4, work for 2 years then take a an indefinate but permanent leave of absence. If this doesnt meet the criteria I say option 3. Ive always worked a minimum of 5 days a week and now vary between 6 & 7 as im self employed. Interesting predicament :-) |

I've been asking people at work today which option they would go for, the vast majority went for 5 days a week, i think i would go for 3 days a week & live a simple life. Work to live not live to work imo.

I'm trying to remember the name of an actor. I I think he British but I'm not sure. I can't remember any of the films he was in.
When I think about him I see a smallish, slightly overweight man in his mid sixties. He has is wearing a suit but he's taken his jacket off. His white shirt is slightly rumped and open at the neck. He has red braces and a mop of unruly grey hair.
He is a bit drunk. He's disgruntled and outspoken.
He looks a bit like George Seagull's older shorter brother.
His name is on the tip of my tongue.
I keep thinking Trevor but that's probably completely wrong.

He looks a bit like a rough version of the 'Man in a suitcase' actor.
