Member Contributer Dutchy Posted August 14, 2020 Member Contributer Share Posted August 14, 2020 The past years have failed in securing me a new job following redundancy. But has seen a 2003 RC51, a 1984 VF400F, a 1954 Gilera 150cc and a 4th Gen (again) come into my life. And it has seen contineous enjoyment from reading and contributing to VFRDISCUSSION. I want to thank tou all for that! As mentioned in other posts, one's health is king! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer RobF Posted August 15, 2020 Member Contributer Share Posted August 15, 2020 I remember. You were journaling a big trip through Belgium or something vaguely Frenchy like that. Someone turned left in front of you. Which is different than the time some truck backed up into you at a stop. I’m glad you’re still riding, wrenching, and posting.

I just accepted a position as SOx Compliance Officer Benelux for a Japanese multinational Very very happy, albeit that my riding and wrenching time will be curtailed. Each plus has a minus eh?

I never knew there was such a thing as the Socks Police! 😁 So...what does a Socks Cop actually do? Translation: What's a SOx Compliance Officer Benelux?

And @Sweeper, with 38 days paid vacation p/a (on top of the 7 days -paid- national holidays), there will be plenty opportunity to ride and tinker....
