      Which explains why it's even quieter than usual.

      It's the long dark teatime of the soul all the way to September.

      Though the end of term is mid July.
      What do you think of this years crop, will they pass or will some be back for summer re-sits?

          That's one of the worst things that can happen on a morning commute.

                I thought that's how you Lizards liked it?

                Shouldn't you be out basking in it or something?

                    Been sent to a room with 10 desks but nobody else is in the room - I am in solitary confinement for the duration.

                      Started new gig, working away from home so already bit fed up with that.

                      First week, I find out that contractors can't use the company car park so have to endure a trip in on the shuttle bus or a 25 min walk from some dodgy town centre car park.

                      Second week, I find out that the 'flexible hours' referred to in the interview mean core hours of 10-12 and 2-4, so no early departure is permitted on a Friday. This makes me even more fed up.

                      Third week, a gaggle of Bobs move in the office and I'm railed by a chorus of coughs, snorts and sniffles as they adjust to our climate and/or the air conditioning. As someone who struggles with misophonia, this has set my teeth well and truly on edge.

                      Every instinct is telling me to walk but I'm trying to keep my professional head on and just endure until the end date.
