i passed by a sign that said
"Stationary Scaffolding"
I thought it was a funny name for a scaffolding business. I mean one would hope its stationary.

I was sooo tempted to put a deposit down, but they cost more than my sodding computer did!

Hat? Todd? Get out.

I think she should call it............ Brian.

Sobriquet Kryakutnoy · 10-06-2008, 02:45 PM

Call it Carmina Gadelica and tell everyone it is a girl.

I really shouldn't be heeded on animal nomenclature.

Hahaha, call it Pete Doherty XD

Her name was Alexa. Legally, I wasn't her father. That title went, unjustly, to the biggest scumbag to walk the planet, who hardly saw her in the last two years of her life. I was there with her mom when to help with setting up her feeding tube every day, there to hold her hand when the seizures disrupted her tiny body and mind, and there to see her smile and giggle when I made a funny face at her.

Goodbye, Alexa. 9 years ago today, 2 days after your birthday, you went to heaven after 3 rough years on earth. You would have been 12, and I miss you every day. I love you.

That's one of the most powerful passages I've read here Kristian. I hope you are OK.

It's awful, losing a child you love. You are in my thoughts, Kristian.

sometimes fatherhood comes not in a title but by actions.

I went to a Japanese society meeting tonight and met lots of Japanese people. One of the people I met asked where I worked and what I did, and when I told her, she said "Oh, I wondered why I've not been employed recently."
Apparently, she's the external Japanese translator for my company and since they employed me, they pretty much dumped her.

What do you say to that?

All I said was "Er, I am sorry if I have harmed your work in any way. Your translations are better than mine (no shit - she's Japanese which gives a good advantage) and my pay is so shit that they must be paying you more."

She started to grill me about all the people there and I panicked and was like "look, I've been a Japanese translator for 2 weeks and I am shit at it!"

She also demanded to know why I had seen her translation, which should be obvious - because I have to check them to make sure she's doing it well, etc.

I know she's a better translator than me - a native speaker always will be. But now the company is using me to do the translations and I have a face to the "outside party" that does them when I can't cope.... what do I do?

I think I am going to try to make sure they keep her on for all the full translations and leave me for the summaries, since I really don't give a shit if I lose this job or not whereas for her, it could mean losing her visa.

Ouch, that's not an envious position to be in!

Hopefully something will work out for the both of you
