I may try out the method this week though. Actually - I am wanting them to know how much I have at the moment. It is a bit of office politics
Hmmm - no gigs found yet.

| Re: The official office workers thread. indulgent day today....
First Milk sent my boss a huge round of (allegedly prizewinning) Stilton, and he went and bought biscuits, and most of the afternoon since has been spent cheese-grazing. very tasty indeed.
however, this has substantially reduced my workrate, and I must now get the (cheesey) finger out — cos there's the small matter of a guestie for an old pal's gig tonight — and I don't want to miss out on the pre-show champagne  |

| Re: The official office workers thread. Skiving tip:
When I have breakfast I always have it in work - bring in cereal or make toast or put something in the microwave, then sit and eat it at my desk. This means that I can leave the flat, say, 20 minutes earlier, and me sitting at my desk counts as actually being in work!
Great eh?
I do actually like my job. |
