oof
I've started a new job.
It's all a bit tiring.
It's all a bit tiring.
Just had a bombshell dropped on me in the form of a black tie industry awards dinner on Monday night next week. Now I have to try and find/hire a tuxedo and put up with a load of crap with the only consolation being a free meal.
This is followed by a two day conference meaning early starts and late finishes!

Best way to look at it
Day has flown by so far - spent plenty of it on the road though. Which is fine - have tunes and it's a lovely day

I am trying to find ways to get out of an evening network meeting which will be held 90 mins drive away from where I live...
My evenings are precious to me

Fuck you Dave!
We've just had a fire drill! Which I think may result in a memo saying that we are supposed to leave coats, bags and mugs of tea behind...none of which I did

The coat and bag I can understand but did you seriously take a mug of tea with you? Do you have stairs to go down?
Last time we had a fire drill some dickhead took his half eaten ready meal down 4 flights of stairs.

well you need your coat incase it's a bit nippy and bag is essential as it's a good opportunity for a cigarette!

I have just had an e-mail asking for a place on an event I didn't know about.
The original e-mail she attached is sent from a member of staff who works 3 offices down the hall from me and was sent on Thursday. It has my name to 'book' places with.
Do you think the member of staff who sent the original -mail bothered to tell me about the event, or the fact that she would be asking people to respond to me? Or has she told me what the hell I should be doing with these responses for an event I know nothing about?
NO is the answer to all of the above.
God I love communication!!
Also, because our IT Dept are so incompetent, I can save nothing today as my allocated space on the network is so small that 2 PDFs fill it up!!!
I will now do nothing but read Urban for the next 17 minutes as a protest. And also to ensure I do not send sarcastic e-mail to member of staff mentioned above!!

My day to work at home - watching a terrible programme about trying to sell your house in the credit crunch, smacks of a slightly selfish "I'm alright Jack and don't care about you attitude", have decided to turn over to "Quincy ME" instead - oh and I am doing some work as well, honest

Back in 'the chair' again after my morning meeting.
Did not really think about where I was going but ended up in the offices of a national newspaper that is not well loved on this here website. Felt like a bit of a traitor but sadly left my morals at the door and got on with it...
Gonna type up some meeting notes and then potter out to town for a late lunch stroll and to source some cheap lunch items.

stroppy email from client taking offence to my asking for sales figures on products not only associated with our name and logo, but which we paid for

I do hope you replied with a smile in your voice/fingers
One of my receptionists has gone home 'sick' - looks like she's going to a fucking party to me! Hair all done up, posh frock on, used her favourite 'been vomiting' line
So I'm now stuck on fucking reception
Just found out that CF rocked in 2 hours late today!!
I salute him.
In other news our parent (and I mean that in the Britney Spears sense) companies shares have just taken another tumble of 40% from yesterday to today! That means that they are now down 93% since September 2007!
