Hello everyone, My name is Manuel. I have been playing Call of Duty since 2005 (COD1). On your servers you can meet me under the nickname ..:::MANE:::... (most of you mispronounce my nickname, but I'm already used to it :D) I would say that I played with you for the first time about 7-8 years ago. I like that most of your members (at least that's my impression) are more mature. That's one of the reasons why I'm "stuck" with you :D. Socializing through the game on your server has a relaxing effect on me (mostly :D). I'm sure some of you have a different experience. I look forward to meeting you again on one of your servers. Stay healthy.

Hey fellow gamers, I wanted to share a significant decision I've made in my life and seek some advice and support from this amazing community. After spending the last nine years in the world of IT, the past four of which have been increasingly unhappy and stressful, I've decided to pivot towards a healthcare career. And guess what? My ultimate goal is to become a Nurse! At 28 years old, I feel like now is the perfect time for this change. I've just finished my Forensic Psychology BSc, which has been a fascinating journey, but I've realized my passion lies in making a tangible difference in people's lives, especially during their times of need. The decision to leave behind a stable career in IT hasn't been easy. I've become increasingly short with people (I apologise if I have subjected any of you to that), and the stress has been taking its toll. But I believe it's time for a change, and I'm ready to take the leap. Right now, I'm in the midst of applying for roles as a healthcare assistant with the NHS. It's a nerve-wracking process, but I'm hopeful that this will be the first step towards a fulfilling career in healthcare. I know there are challenges ahead, especially considering the shift from IT to healthcare, but I'm determined to overcome them. And that's where I could use your help. If any of you have made similar career transitions or have experience working in healthcare, I'd love to hear your advice and insights. And if you have any tips for landing a role as a healthcare assistant with the NHS or just want to share words of encouragement, please don't hesitate to reach out. Your support means the world to me, and I'm grateful to have such an awesome community to turn to during this exciting but uncertain time. Thanks for taking the time to read this, and here's to new beginnings and chasing our dreams, no matter where they lead us! Cheers! Cookie

Happy Birthday!?

Change can be good. Leaving a stressful career is good. Health care can be stressful as well but very rewarding. At a young 28 you will likely change your career at least 1 or 2 more times. It may simply be a promotion to a management position but it will happen. Change is good it refreshes your energy. Welcome any career change with an open mind. Weed

Welcome to the forums Maney... fufufu @Roxy!

trojan horse of JP Morgan's greed of money sank that ship

JFK is another ? and the hypocrite world unleash Covid to flatten the miiddle class.

You Are still young, do what makes you happy and you will be happy for the rest of your life!

About 11 years ago when our Son was 30 and he had helped his Mom my Wife take care of his grandfather during his final days because he wanted to stay in his house. Our Son realized just how much he disliked his job as a Sr. Service Advisor at the local Rolls Royce, Bentley, Lambo dealer and how much he felt good about himself while helping someone who really needed him was. He went to a school here in the States that had a fast track program to become a CMA (Certified Medical Assistant) and was working in less then 9 months. He loves it and the Dr.'s and Nurses who he works with have all encouraged him to become a Nurse. Empathy is unfortunately not a trait everyone is born with and Nurses are special people. I say if that is something you can make a living doing and it makes you feel good about you and your best life then do it. People change careers all the time now. Plus the Medical field is always going to be hiring as we age but seem to live longer with all sorts of shit going on with our bodies. Good Luck to you, YOU GOT THIS. PS don't enjoy giving the sponge bathes too much or you may get in trouble lmao

If you are passionate about your new field then it cant be a bad thing. Take a deep breathe, you got this Cookie.

I'll take four beers and a double cheeseburger! kthanks! :)

Thank you all for the kind words and warm reception

If you find IT stressfull, good luck wiht being in healthcare. I've spent 16 years as a psychiatric nurse, mostly in forensic psychiatry and I made the decision to drop healthcare and starting a complete different job tomorrow. I always admired the coworkers who spent 20, 30, 40+ years in healthcare and saw it as their calling. Wish you the same feeling they had

Happy Birthday folks!

Happy Birthday folks!

Happy birthday to a great bunch !!!!! Maybe all conceived the same day around mid-june....

Thank You Skuzapo!?

Happy Birthday everyone

@MHsDaughter always a cute kid but sassy lolol! Like the others said it’d be nice to see you in the game again.

Oh crap... don't send a DEI (Dumb unEducated Idiot) built Bowing 737 Max my way. Damn thing will crash and mess up my slot machine. I prefer only qualified people to build planes and everything else.

Chase a purpose in life, one that has a greater meaning and is to the benefit of all, even in a small way. You will find contentment.

question what has replaced the master's whip.........money has put you into bondage to devil's of slave drivers

Looks Yummy!

Very nice. AND showed a slice pic. W00T!

Looks great!

At 28 years of age you have got a whole lot of living to do and if you can find a career that makes you want to get up in the morning and head off to work then go for it. I've made some career (and country) changes in my time, and it has all worked out really well. As a matter of fact I start a new job tomorrow after 20 years at my last - and I'm 61! Sorry I can't help with any NHS advice, but you're on your first step and I'm sure you will do well. Cheers Bosun

Thanks a bunch for the words of encouragement! You're spot on - if there's one thing I'm certain about, it's my passion for this new field. But hey, I won't lie, the thought of a pay decrease and diving into a new level of study makes me feel a bit stressed.

Hey @MANE nice to see you here, and you know I'm one of those who pronounced your name correctly, don't listen to @iboomboom he knows nothing ??

Heynow

Welcome to the forums Mane. I've enjoyed playing alongside and against you on the servers. For those wondering how to pronounce it properly, it's Man-E I'm as guilty as the next person for mis-pronouncing it though We say all sorts in the heat of battle

NICE intro - welcome to the Forums.

Happy Birthday ?

Jealous much???

I'll slip in a contrail!!

Nice read. Thanks for sharing ?

Oh you mean the sister ship Olympic that JPMorgan replaced the Titanic with because of the construction errors in the Olympic? Where they had anyone against the Federal Reserve aboard that ship when it sank? Oh yea I know what unsinkable ship you're talking about. You can tell when history has lied to us... they keep the lies and fairy tallies alive for the masses to be brainwashed with. The Titanic is a perfect example of one of them HUGE lies.

You can put me down as a maybe. I have gone as far as to check train times and fares and accessible room cost (£52). Much depends on what the NHS proposes to do about my suspected cancer. If they want me in hospital for a biopsy, that is where I shall be. The venue looks good, nice and close to the railway station that I can get to via St Pancras and Kings X. Might have to confirm nearer the time but it'd be great to meet up with the gang at last! Would you propose dinner in the Beefeater?
