*Gets in line behind finti, who's behind ToMacco*

I've only had one job my whole life and I got fired one month later. I have no skills for a job. I need some welfare checks.

You know those plastic wristbands you have when you go on an all inclusive holday or where you are in hospitl or go to some theme parks or camp sites etc... Well I am particularly talented at putting them on and cutting off the excess at speed.My scissors never used to leave my fingers at work. I have scared many a young child in this way! So I have to say being able to put on more wristbands inside a minute than any of the staff at my workplace is a completely and utterly useless skill!

My most recent obsessive habit is checking that my car is locked, I've been going back to it like three times to make sure. The other lock related habit is our works factory door, I lock it on my way out then sit in the car and wonder if I did or not. I have to go back and check at least once every day, it's so annoying.

Useless talents are plentiful too but the most useless is probably my amazing capacity to remember part numbers and discriptions for work. We make 1000's of different parts and assemblies; and I can virtually remember everything from the part number, customer, number of operations and descriptions. The most annoying thing about this is that I can't remember names for toffee, I have a total mental block with peoples names. Weird. confused

Sounds like an employee at my dad's work office. For his birthday they got him a book about Remembering. As a joke they said he'd probably lock in his car along with his keys. laughing out loud

OOh I have a head for numbers. People think it is really sad that I can remember my library card number, my bank account number and sort code, My chargecard number which I haven't used since I was 14, My credit card number, My national insurance number, my sister's national insurance number, All three of my exam candidate numbers and even my driving theory test certificate number.

I'm sure I know more but can't think of them right now.

I wish I remembered to lock my car door.

I don't know if I ever told you guys this, but I'm gonna right now.

I drive a 1990 Chevy Cavalier station wagon. The car is a piece of shit, no one doubts that.

One night, I had parked my car in my parents driveway, and left the door unlocked. That night, some punks sons of bitches went into my car and stole my CD case that had over 200 CD's in it. Those CD's were worth more than the car was.

The police didn't do a damn thing. I was so pissed. finti, my CD's (like I'm sure yours are) were my most prized possession. Now they are gone.

sad sad sad sad sad sad sad

I've had two of my cars broken into, one of them three times for christs sake! It's a horrible feeling when you find out too, it's like someone has slept with your missus. sad

I missed posting in this thread so I'm dragging it back to page 1.

Probably my most obsessive habit is double checking that the burners are all off on the stove. I have this horrible fear the house will blow up with my dogs in it while we're gone.

When I'm in the car with my dad he plays Pat Boone on cassette. *throws up* At least I can get my mom to listen to Fleetwood Mac or Sting. Dad's lost in the past. Hehehe.

Oh yes..Fleetwood Mac..hmmmmm..they're cutting edge laughing out loud stick out tongue

I'm always worried that I left my curling iron on....Sometimes I actually get out to the car and have to come back to check.. My boyfriend is like that too so we usually check a bunch of times before we leave..of course he has reason to be that way..his house burnt down when he was a kid because of a curling iron.
