Life Be Good
 

ME: “Hi there! I was just wondering if there was lettuce in that trolley?”
STRANGER: “Lettuce?”
ME: “Yeah, lettuce ask you a question!”

ME: “Excuse me, do you always do that?”
STRANGER (usually pretty or older lady”) “sorry?”
ME: “Do you always do what you did back there?”
STRANGER: “Do what?”
ME: “Take people’s breath away”

And there you have some of my favourite ice breakers I use at least 5+ times a day to varying success… What do I use those ice breakers for? Just for my new job of course! What’s my new job? To put it bluntly… I’m one of those annoying people at shopping centre’s trying to get you to help out charities. At the moment the charity I do it for is Guide Dogs

So yeah I recently (5-6 weeks ago) got a new job (my first full time job) as a field representative for a marketing company!!! So far I’m loving the job, its lots of fun and the majority of the time it doesn't even feel like I’m actually working which is awesome ASDF. But yeah new job as a salesman and it’s full time and I love it hehe.


Streaky Bay's beach just outside the town centre

I even get to travel for this job which is awesome just 2 weeks ago I went to Ceduna and Streaky Bay for a week as part of a road trip for work which was lots of fun. Hopefully not this coming week but the one after I’ll be able to go to Mount Gambier for a week as well #HYPE

One last bragging point about this job is that even after just a few weeks working there my confidence around people has increased so so so so so so so so so so so so so much which is awesome and I'm really really happy about that. You know how you go buy lunch and you order then thank them then leave? Well now it's Talk, order, talk, continue order, talk, pay, talk, leave. You just can't help but talk to strangers when you do this job for a while... It's awesome hehe


Streaky Bay again... I wonder why they named it Streaky Bay?

Just so you know I do have quite a few hilarious stories from my new job but I feel like if I explain one I’ll have to explain more so I’ll just leave it with the ice breakers hehe.

Oh and if you haven’t gathered by now this is basically a blog on how I’ve been the past 1-2 months and where I’ve disappeared off to hehe.

So in other news I have a girlfriend now as well She’s super awesome. She can cook SUPER well, she enjoys playing games every now and then, she’s smart, she’s funny, she’s pretty, she’s cute and she’s Chinese. So in other words she’s just awesome hehe. So yeah free time usually goes to her which I’m fine with since yeah… Why not?


Ceduna just outside the cabin we were staying at

Hmm what else can I talk about… Honestly not much has really happened apart from work and spending time with my friends and girlfriend. Well I guess I could talk about how a couple moved in with me and my housemate so rent has gone down which is awesome and so have the bills so I’m happy about that. They also brought like 6 consoles with them which includes a wii u which is awesome because Mario Kart 8 and Super Smash Bros (when it comes out) ASDF ASDF ASDF. So mmm yeah that happened to.

OH I BOUGHT MY FIRST SUIT THE OTHER DAY It was my first time buying a suit with my own money! I’m quite happy with it, it cost $264 and I got a jacket, shirt, vest, pants and shoes and it all fits really well which is good. I had a friend from work help me pick which one to buy which helped since I had no idea what I was doing… But yeah it felt good buying my first suit hopefully I’ll be able to buy a few more in the coming weeks. I think having 2-4 suits for work would be pretty awesome. What do you guys think?


Do you like my puppy necklace?

Anyway I think that sums up everything I wanted to say. So the TLDR is I got a new job, I have a girlfriend and I bought a suit but most importantly things are going really well

Last but not least do yourself a favour and watch this video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds like you're having a good time! now all we need is for you to make a glorious return to SC2

Re: Life Be Good
 

Good stuff mate! Glad to hear things are going well

Re: Life Be Good
 

Dude.. I hate you.. Those people are so ******* annoying. But its proven to be a very affective method of getting people to talk to you and sign up to donate money. And I realise that you're only doing your job. But you're going to get a few arseholes talking shit to you. Just make sure they don't kill your vibe with the new job. Otherwise they will get to you over time

Sounds like life is really coming along for you mate, which is awesome

gl hf!

Re: Life Be Good
 

haha thanks guys

And Chadmann you've obviously only spoken to the wrong people But yeah I understand what you mean but honestly we just laugh at those people. The good feeling you get out of helping out a charity, making people smile with cheesy ice breakers and just talking to some people is way better than the not so good feeling you get from people saying no a lot of the time and the occasional rude people

Re: Life Be Good
 

Stormz is all grown up now :'( So proud of you... #passion #dedication

Re: Life Be Good
 

Nah, I've just worked in sales for years and I know all the tricks. That stuff is effective but I don't like it. Most forms of non-direct/deceptive sales techniques aren't my thing. Depends how you use it tho.

Being that upbeat positive guy is a really good approach and you'll enjoy your job. Just don't let the arseholes wear you down

Re: Life Be Good
 

Probs be fine with 2 suits, get a navy to go with that one.

Maybe have a look at r/malehairadvice aswell, might find a hairstyle that looks good aswell.

Re: Life Be Good
 

LOL get hut to pick out a suit for you... then get a discount as well.

Great to see everything going well for you Strumz. You're still my favourite, even if you've abandoned us for real life :P

Re: Life Be Good

Yeah I have no problem so far doing that Chadmann so hopefully it can continue that way

OMG YES! TY Hut! I've been wondering what to do with my hair that reddit should help a bit haha tytytytyty

Hut works at a suit store? Well I've been meaning to go to Sydney one day...Maybe I should go to get a suit off Hut??? And meet you of course Thank you Dot I'm glad someone hasn't taken that spot yet If they do I'll return win it back and then yeah hehe
