Working on the side of a hill. Enjoying the scenery. Oh shit how come the sky's on that side. Simple really.

Went over so slow that if I paid for the ride at the show I would want my money back.

No one would possibly think to connect information in a public forum with you

Come on, we'll keep the secret

Said epic fails may possibly include many, many litres of wine going down a drain...It's possible that this wine may have been their precious top drop, and only gets produced every couple of years... But I'd hate to speculate

Wrote an email yesterday to a mate slagging off the boss and regional manager for the company i am working for, had a fairly decent go at it too. even mentioned that im ready to quit so they don't bring me down with their FAIL boat. went to send it accidently selected a contact list that included all the supervisors for the operations plant, all the head honcho's for the company we are contracting for, and ..... the boss and regional manager for my company!

Tried the recall function. I think it worked but i did get some very angry looks today.

The lesson I learnt - Do not write emails on night shift!

stuffed up the event build on the Justin Timberlake Concerts.... event went onsale... prolly 50,000 people trying to get tickets across the web/call centre/agencies. No deal. abuse central, got my arse properly kicked at work for such a dumb mistake. was awesome ! luckily fixed it in 15mins but yeah... not good. Did the same thing with Hopman Cup - luckily it was mainly only old farts trying to buy tickets and they complain about everything all the time anyways - so wasnt so bad.


Also once managed to put tickets for sale for free through the website - they were supposed to be $90 each ! Luckily contacted the people who bought the free tickets and explained and they were nice enough to return the tickets or pay the full price.

Ive done the email thing a few times as well... sent the email to the person that I was bitching about in the email.

Got a sms few weeks back saying " hey sexy"

I had no idea who it was so i asked who it was. I got a reply "Jess" so i replyed with a hot message saying how we had to catch up and some hot steamy stuff chucked in for good measure. 30min later i got a message saying "who is this"

I wrote back "The bloke with the big dick"

2 seconds later my phone was ringing... it was a dude going off his head!

Found out later that the girl was at her boyfriends (i didnt know she had a b/f) and texting me off his phone!!!!!!

Oh well they broke up and i fuked her 2 nights later

Something like this Mat? Bloke ripping some shelf rock in a D10N. He thought it was a good idea to put on his seat belt 5 minutes before hand as it was getting dodgy, good move!! Why he was ripping parallel to the edge is beyond me but this is what happens when the dozer skates off the edge.



Here's a rock I pulled out a few weeks before hand with a D9L rake.


Here's some more EPIC FAIL moments from the cowboys I used to work with, enjoy!!








And my personal favourite, this is in 2m + of absolute fukn slop

There are some pretty good stuff ups in the market. Last year some poor new trader at one of the big Sydney mobs was told to sell 1 million shares in a shitbox penny dreadful for 1 cent- the guy typed in WDC (Westfield) instead- codes were similar, and basically hammered the price of one of the ASX's biggest stocks down to nothing. He managed to singlehandedly move the index a few points too. The firm had to buy all the stock back, cost them a couple of bricks...
