dont make em like they used to

[fruitsalad]

men i'm talking about, i've met quite a few just recently mainly at work and they dont seem to have any get up and go, and they puff and pant when they have to lift anything thats a bit on the heavy side, maybe its just that i've been spoilt by mr fruit whos as strong as an ox still, at 61 years of age and could put a few of these youngsters to shame.

Yea fruity they don't make em like us old uns, but maybe we built a rod for our oen back by grafting all our lives, but to be fair, I think you are unlucky with the ones at work, both of my sons are very hard workers, (one is off work though after bad accident) and all of there mates work hard, but a lot of office workers are lazy.

I'm 62 fit as a flea.

Probably get into a bit of trouble......But I think 'office workers' is a bit of an oxymoron.

[raysparx1]

Hi stewey isn't the word oxymoron an oxymoron as well ?, lol

[Doc Spock]

I worked in an office till I was 50. Then worked for myself fitting kitchens and bathrooms. Packed it in couple of years ago, knees a bit dodgy.

[bobtheturkey]

can you still get fruitsalad sweets

[Doc Spock]

Sorry to say it but there is not a lot of work in some youngsters. Not all mind.

[fruitsalad]

yes bob and blackjacks

[bobtheturkey]

what about those big penny chews?

[fruitsalad]

and no i'm not talking about office workers, cant really speak for them, i work in a warehouse, and mr. fruit is a builders labourer and works with men half his age, and most of them dont know what a days work is.

[fruitsalad]

i'm sure you can , not sure you can get 5 for a penny nowadays though..

The older generation have class, quality and character. I love being around them because I find them to be constructive thinkers. And they care about life and want to live and enjoy it.

Ah, that's very kind of you to say so society! ;o}
