Still Smiling

Sunday, April 20th, 2008

Things have been going really well lately. I got promoted at work so now I teach all the time. Shelley and I are still very happy together and we’re discussing living together in the near future. All in all I’m a happy bunny.
I’ve had a few freelance jobs on the go; updating […]

Work and Remote Access

Tuesday, December 4th, 2007

So I have finally finished work on the photographer’s site. Check it out I’m really proud of it. What with working on that, being busy at Apple and surviving on a tin of soup a day for the last month I have unsurprisingly made myself ill. I have been off sick from […]

How quickly things change…

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

In the four days since my last post I have been told that my application for the new job has been withdrawn and that I can’t be considered for any promotions for at least three months. Then today I found out that in the last three months I have been shorted over eight hundred […]

Eine Änderung von Plänen

Thursday, September 21st, 2006

Just to let you all know I’ll be out of the country from Sunday as I am working in Cologne in Germany next week. I’ll be back on Monday 2nd October. Get your orders in now for fetish gear, hardcore blue and bratwursts.

Okay, the next person who asks me if a DVD is in the 5 for £30 sale at work is going to be battered with said DVD until they are a bloody, broken mess on the floor. For fucks sake is it really that complicated? If a DVD has a big red sticker […]

Irony.

Monday, January 17th, 2005

I was just about to write a post about my plans for the next three weeks and then I got a call from my manager. “What are your plans for next week? Would you mind coming in?”. Obviously they can’t function without me but I’m a bit annoyed about it.
I rang him […]

Time off.

Monday, January 10th, 2005

It appears that due to an oversight on my employers part I have now got the next three weeks off as paid holiday. They’ve just realised that most of the people that work there are owed about three weeks holiday and it all has to be used by March. Which is good for […]

Running on Empty

Friday, December 24th, 2004

I worked the night shift last night. I was supposed to work from 10:00pm Thursday until 6:30am this morning. To prepare for this I went to bed at about half past two on Wednesday and intended to get up around lunchtime. Unfortunately I woke up at 9am on Thursday and couldn’t get […]

Graveyard Shift

Monday, November 15th, 2004

I’ve just got in from work. I’m on nights this week, 6pm until 2:30am today, then 9pm until 5:30am tonight, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. It’s gonna be weird not really seeing anyone other than the three other people doing nights for the week but it’s not that bad. I apologise in advance […]

More Responsibility

Monday, November 8th, 2004

Works been going pretty well. Last week one of my bosses asked to speak to me. He asked if I’d be happy to look after the campaign over xmas. Alex, the girl who does it at the moment is leaving and he wants me to fill in for her till January. […]
