Oh, I've been to Georgia and California, and..anywhere I could run...
It all sucks. Everything.
I�m sitting here at my desk�..contemplating. This morning didn�t start too badly really. Cos left the fishflat, I left 5 minutes after her and yet still managed to get to the station before her (its magic you know�nothing to do with the fact that I was a lazy arse and got the bus while she walked�honest) but we met at da �choob� cos the Central Line was pants as ever and we made the journey to work together. (I�m sure we piss everyone off with our hysteria so early in the morning but hey, who cares!)
I worked like a trojan until about 12.02pm and I am back to twiddling my thumbs and trying to find myself something interesting to do�like�.erm�filing..yeah that�ll do.
I�m not sure that I can cope with this for much longer, and yes I know I have been moaning about my job for a while but I think I�m actually hitting crunch time now. I got promoted a few months back from a WO to a WAS (Tom you understand this bit!) and I have days where I am busy and days where I am totally bored and have nothing to do. I think they steamed into this great idea of promoting me without actually working out first whether there was going to be enough work for me to do. But I was told there would be and here I am still telling da boss that I have days where I am bored senseless and have nothing to do.
Anyway it seems there is going to be some reorganisation and �out-sourcing� going on in the company over the coming weeks/months and hopefully it will avoid the redundancy path but with so many telecom companies going under it�ll probably only be a matter of time. So it seems that I am going to be taking back my old responsibilities as a WO but also keeping what I do now so that it frees up another member of the team.
Although it�ll mean I�m busier, I also can�t help feeling that it�s a bit a of a step backwards, and yes its flattering that they�re putting me back so that we can hit our targets and they know I can do the job but I can also do it with my eyes shut and my hands tied behind my back so where�s the challenge in that. I know I should also be grateful that I have a job because telco�s are a baaaaaaad place to be right now....maybe I should just take up Beanie�s offer of being her live-in nanny in Australia. Or maybe Loops and I will set up our own business and become multi-millionaires!
Anyway, enough moaning, it is after all the weekend, which means a few bevvies tonight, then home for dinner with Cos and Dan and cleaning the fishflat in preparation for
THE 80s BASH!
Yes that�s right, the fishies are donning their most glamorous 80s gear (actually I�ll be looking more like a �Fame� extra but hey, its all in the spirit of fun and I�m sure that cos, Si and I will have stories to amuse and entertain you all next week. Stay tuned!
So normally I would do my weekend shouts but this week�well I�m sorry but I just can�t be bothered! So love and hugs to you all
