Mehning Losers!
Starting work at the new time of 8am from today. I just need to mae sure I leave on time!

Nothing much in the pipeline today. I have a meeting with the minion and boss where they end up pi$$ing me off as they come up with a plan for whilst I'm away. Ferking women, working together.

Anywho, I'm trying to be positive at work, as it should help. Not easy though.

Laters!

Ps. Pancakes later I hope!!! :D

    Seriously grumpy this morning coupled with a large amount of CBA.

    Today is not going to be one of the better days in the office.

    Later......

    Morning bumders

    Stitches came out yesterday and I'm allowed to do stuff again, so today will be studying and the usual meh. Tomorrow will be more fun though as it's going to be filled with hockey stuff.

    Media player has just thrown up the Chemicals Brothers 'Let Forever Be', the openiong line of which is 'How does it feel, to wake up in the sun'.

    Weird. o.0

    Anyhoo, morning snowballers

    Not much work wise to report apart from the roads aren't icy and work today will mostly feature some old school metal joining with arcs and sparks and s**t. I have some uber-interesting steels to look at later int he week so I need to make sure everything is doing what it needs to be doing. Fun fun fun!

    Tonight will probably be trying to figure out why a mates 6x6 truck has the longest brake pedal in Christendom.

    Onwards! To arc-eye! And the faint wiff of dead brake fluid!

    morning all,

    i seem to have woken up with the beginnings of man flu :x

    today i am sat in a meeting looking after the technical requirements of a meeting for the entire global senior management team of the company i'm subcontracted to. the last 2 of these meetings has seen a technical fault (i haven't been present at these) if there's a problem today, i've been told i may very well be looking for a new job :shock:

    anyway, i'm booked on an uplift tomorrow, so not all bad :lol:

    Good on the uplift. Wife has same flu so hope yopu were not snogging her. Last week I sat in on one of these management vs IT meetings which was ridiculous. '...the network never works..' ...'cannot do any development work..' sort of idiotic comments. Demoralising carp - but at least they did not threaten the IT's job.

    i don't work in IT mate, i'm an audio visual service engineer and the faults haven't been my fault, but that of a programmer who installed an old version of a programme onto our crestron system. causing the system to shut down at 5pm everyday. i finish work at 4pm (as do most people here) so no-one ever knew there was a problem apart from the last 2 of these meetings that last until 6! fingers crossed it's all sorted now though :?

    Pancakes schmancakes.

    I'm off for a Toby carvery breakfast with unlimited everything for £4. I expect to take particular advantage of bacons.

    I will be posting a picture and fully expect it to be rated highly. I miss those days where people posted pics of every meal!

    Later, slaves to the corporate machines

    Afternoon
    Drive down the M1 today was much easier, So far today I've uploaded some events to the website, tried to call someone about a bike they won, and sold a bike from the demo site. Fun!
    Now I'm eating and pondering why life seems to be so good at the moment. Waiting for someone to jump out and tell me it's all a dream.
    Later I will see if I have the energy to make pancakes... the drive home killed me off last night and I was in bed before 8pm.

    Kisses

    Bored. Beginnings of a cold. The gym won last night. I feel like I have been in a fight.

    However pancakes tonight. Ingredients purchased yesterday including a very large squeezy tub of golden syrup. I fully intend to eat only pancakes for dinner and pudding this evening. :)

    Yes, I did go back for seconds. There was an absence of eggs as they had run out, ridiculous. I only managed 6 rashers of bacon and 3 sausages though.
