I visited another office (last week) to help train up some of our staff...
The reward this morning was: all of last week's work is still waiting for me AND the managers want to have calls to discuss why it's not all done yet... and, of course, this week's work is waiting for me.
There aren't enough A's to say Aaaaaaargh
But apart from that, I'm amazed at how resilient trees are in these storms!
Work-wise fairly awful. Dodgy software and shitty MS updates resulted in hundreds of users having debilitatingly slow logins, and as the IT department we had to respond rapidly, which we do anyway, but we were also hounded by angry managers. Fortunately we're on it today and all has gone well. Plus there was the sweet salvation of beer and family boardgames over the weekend.
Yeah alright cheers bruv, how was yours?
Not that I want to brag or nothing, but coming off a night shift on a moist Monday morning and getting into bed just as everyone else is setting off for the day while you're getting into bed is just a perverse bliss that only a small fraction will ever understand. It's the working equivalent of taking off your socks at the end of the day.
It was alright cheers, a pretty quite week really!
I used to do night shifts in my first proper job and could never get into the rhythm of going to bed in the day. I'd sleep for about 3 hours and be wide awake at 11am. I do get what you mean though, hearing everyone starting their day, rushing around and you can finally relax and hear the rain and wind!
