NEW VIRUS...

There is a new virus. Its code name is WORK. If you receive WORK from your colleagues, your boss, via e-mail or any other means, do not touch it under any circumstances. This virus wipes out your private life completely. If you should happen to come in contact with WORK, follow these steps:

1. Put on your jacket and take two colleagues and go straight to the nearest bar.

2. Order ten drinks and drink them one right after the other as fast as you can.

You will find that WORK has now been completely deleted from your brain. Forward this virus warning immediately to at least 5 friends.  Should you realize that you don't have 5 friends, this means that you are already infected by this virus and WORK already controls your whole life. :-) :-)!!

You can successfully thwart the WORK virus by installing the dual platform operating system SEMI-RETIRED / FREELANCE. This platfom is not only very user friendly, it supports an unlimited field of INDEPENDENT PROCESS sub systems. It camaflages your operating system to resemble WORK, but actually assigns the majority of your cpu capabilities to recreation programs :>)

Scary part is that 2 years after my layoff and just relying on my computer, homebased stuff, pension payout and overhead reduction, I nearly doubled my disposable income so that I can buy insurance and put an extra bit in savings from what I was doing before my forced departure from the plant. There IS life after WORK.
