Respect Gerry. I remember the "gun" pickers would be doing 9 or more bins a day. I didn't, too busy singing and thinking lol. It was my getaway, due to depression at the time.

I worked with chinese in a place called greytown in nz and they would sometimes do 12,mostly 9,10 ish and thats select picking not strip. Sure it was decent picking,id get 6 or 7 and thats not really stopping all day whereas they would stop every couply hrs and have a bit of rice and a cuppa. They were real fast bro. In saying that i was driving over 100 kms to get there. One of them modified his picking bag to carry an extraordinary amount,i swear he was lucky if he was 60 kgs dripping wet and would haul a 30 kg bag all day everywhere. It probably saved him a lot of time not having to unload that much to fill a bin. Chinese military bro. God help us if they get mad and wanna roll us.

Wow, it was really great reading this thread back again
So many great memories, among the best times of my life

I don't do much lifting any more, I don't really have the time haha. But I can deadlift 250kg still on any day of the week and weigh around 75kg with no abs

I have a great wife and a son now, everything in my life ended up perfect and nobody ended up killing me despite the weekly death threads from the Australian powerlifting community

Never give up on your dreams guys, if you have the right mindset then you can do anything, this is the 0ni mindset

you want a vid?
you know what you get though right?
you get to live in a caravan and pick dingleberries for $12 bux an hour
That’s what you get
why?
cos you deserve that, society (aka normal kunce) reject antisocial losers like you, so you end up on the bottom of the pile crying poor.
didn’t finish school? Their fault obviously
cant hold a job long enough to make a career? Obviously their fault
can’t live in one place long enough to fit in? Obviously their fault
can’t behave long enough to stay on the outside of jail bars? Obviously their fault
need more examples?
LOSER!

Coke induced psychosis alert. Stop crying,i dont care what you think. Im doing alright thanks.
 
You got demons,very unhappy. Amuses me these attempts to emotionally connect. Dont know you,dont care.

don’t have emotions
don’t do emotions
yes have demon
no interest in connection unless you’re a hot chick

that aside, I’m spot on about you!
yap yap yap, but can’t take it when someone puts a mirror in front of you

Well i have my ways and you have yours.

Like i said in another post here,let nature run its course,time will tell. I know i hit nerves mr corporate,not bad accuracy from a minimum wage labourer eh wot

now you state, people have their ways, after years of banging on about how I shouldn’t do what I have chosen to do, the big moral warrior gerry.

I have never judged anyone one here, any you declared yourself a moral authority, telling me what is wrong and right to do.

yet you:
Can’t finish school
can’t hold down a job
can’t stay out of jail
can’t socialise
can’t adapt to general society
can’t maintain friends
can’t leave an inheritance to your children

these are basics in life, no special needs required here, get these right before you give moral advice, opinions or judgments.
 
These two LMAO. Like a Hells Angel and a Bandido or something, can't be in the same room together without throwing chairs at one another.
There we all are as a Community at a function, I don't know, [MENTION=9251]Darkoz[/MENTION] and his Boyfriend are getting married. Next thing these are punching on in the audience. Go to the reception, these two eye on another, start throwing Stubbies and glasses at each. At Macca's, I'm trying eat me McHappy Meal, these two throwing chairs across the room.

Farking hilarious!!!

lols,i just laugh,he puts so much emotional intensity into it. Irony is he says im socially inept but i talk to more people on a daily basis that he does. I know what hes mad about,its the fact i find him unacceptable. He wouldnt add any value to my life and what im trying to achieve. I know im on a winning track and letting bozos like this guy in would divert or stop the roll. Hes crying that im choosey and doesnt like the fact i can spot red flags.
