Miners daily routine

[alexias2]

This is a place to share out morning routines. I shall start.

First I wake up at 6:00am. I make coffee and have a shower with it, I then get dressed into my mining gear to start the work day. I then have another coffee and turn TV on look at the stock market, since I am also a gold trader, as well was a miner(multi-euntrapenerlalisim). I browse internet. I then start the car at 12:00pm, and travel a few quarter miles to my mining location. I start to dig and sample ground, depending on the day. At 3:00pm I get back to house and have snack and watch TV while checking stock market. I then have have coffee and go to bed at 3:00am, and I start the day again until the weekend.

I am really beginning to think we ARE dealing with a language barrier thing. I'm gonna bet that alexias is more than likely somewhere across the big pond and is using google translator to translate to Engrish.

On a side note though, I do have a question. What is this sleep thing you are all talking about? It seems like all the cool kids are doing it and I want to be in the "cool club" too. So come on, one of you spill the beans on this sleep thing. I think I might want to try it too, just to be in the "cool club".

It is a Greek name...I prefer we give him the benefit of the doubt as you suggest MM.

When I'm in town on a weekday its up at 5, at my desk by 6 (home office), work until 3 or 4 or so, run any errands then go dig for an hour or so. Home for dinner, pay attention to my wife but get boarded by her tv shows and go to my shop to pan out the day's cons. Post a pic on tnet and hit the sack.

What do you do in your office?

Trading gold?

You Don't want that MAD!!! Sleep is for whimps

This is an old Asian proverb which says.

Confusions says: you have many time to rest when dead.

Trading gold?

Gold trading would be much more interesting than my reality...I manage a global team of accountants. So I spend a lot of time on the phone with my staff and clients. As many know here, my client is in Massachusetts so I also spend time at their offices...which are a lot further from a gold bearing area than my house is!

My daily routine?

No such thing.....

I'm up when I feel like being up, and when I get tired I go to bed.

Sounds simple, but what it means is that my schedule is entirely
flexible. I never sleep less than 8 hrs.....10-12 hrs. a night is
more common, and following a vertigo attack I may sleep as much
as 18 hrs. before feeling "human" again. When I'm up I'm generally
awake/active for 16-20 hours.

Got up at 0100 this morning, so today I'll be hitting the sack around
6-8pm, but it's rarely ever the same from one day to the next.

We keep reading because we really want to know who this new person is and what they are about, that and some slight entertainment factor.

The more I read the more I too get the sense of a language barrier as well.

My Routine now that I am divorced and a single dad of 3 crazy girls.

1.) WANT GOLD!
2.) WANT GOLD MORE!
3.) Call the babysitter
4.) Set the date
5.) Get flaked out on by babysitter
6.) Re-schedule
7.) Head out around Noon - 4pm depending on Babysitter
8.) Relax, Enjoy life and float around in the water finding gold.


Days that I camp out.

1.) Wake up when the sun makes it too hot to sleep anymore (usually 9 - 10 depending on terrain)
2.) Know that I am alive because of the searing pain in my lower back - Wait for said pain to slowly go away after taking Aleve over about an hours time.
3.) Eat a little breakfast
4.) Tend camp for a moment
5.) Grab my gear and get into the water.
6.) Snipe until it is too dark to see anything (I love putting in 10+ hour days - awesome pay!)
7.) Start a fire and cook dinner
8.) Relax and pan out the days take
9.) Kill the fire and go to sleep.


In a nut shell.

I don't get to camp as much as I would like to anymore, only a couple times last year and none yet this year.

Kevin you may be on to something, I was just doing some Internet surfing on mining for gold in Greece. Apparently - Greece is very rich with gold and is sitting on "Massive untapped deposits of Gold, Oil, and Natural Gas". Greece is open to mining and prospecting to the private citizen. What I found both enlightening and scary is a portion of one article that stated Greece should and could be the or one of the richest members in the European Union, but due to the current anti mining pro enviro government they are where they are. The article goes on to point out as one example a group of mountains in the northern part of greece where a high profile mine is trying to open. It's sitting on $26 billion in gold and would provide the local economy with 1500 jobs- that's just ONE mine!
It is indeed a small world. Is what's going on over their our future here in the U.S.A as well. I'm sorry, and please take no offense Mr Alexias2 if you are greek, as I mean no offense to the people of Greece, but.... If a government is sitting on that much wealth and refuses to develop it for the benefit of the country and the people they serve, they shouldn't get one dime until the members of the government are ousted, same goes for here! The enviro cancer is going to kill off the whole planet not just California.

Politicians and pundits say that the situation in Greece is "complicated". In that liberal socialist country the takers out number the producers plain and simple.

Sounds a lot like home, huh?

 

[bill-costa rica]

5 days here on this forum and alexias2 has a opinion on everything, seems to be baiting people.... sounds like a troll to me.

 

[Goldwasher]

yea l suspect the same!

Hard not clean up misinformation though for the sake of some new guys who might actually believe some of the stuff professed on these threads

 

[goldenIrishman]

That's why it's up to us to keep things straight here G.W. I'm sure that most of the new folks here have good noses and can smell Bovine Scientology when it's around.

 

[fowledup]

Me tends ta tink it tis a wolf in sheeps clothing having a wee spot o fun wid us!

 

[Duckshot]

Maybe it's a flatulence problem.

If you don't fart often enough alexias2, that gas will travel up your spinal cord to your brain and give you crappy ideas.

I agree Fowled. I'm waiting to see what the thread of the day will be today?

 

[QNCrazy]

Has anyone else noticed that the goboly goop in these threads is remenescent of Chelsey's rants? Where is Chelsey anyway? Come out, come out, where ever you are.
