    i did slip up slightly today though, i walked in the office at 10:50.. i forgot to get out of bed when my alarm went off and simply went back to sleep

    it's ok though, its germany and the council are only open in office hours and so obviously i had "been to speak with the council" to my fellow employees..

      FFS. Can't you see that I'm busy shuffling papers? Right, where's my Wednesday document gone?
      I'm better than dirt. Well, most kinds of dirt, not that fancy store-bought dirt... I can't compete with that stuff.

        Had you sussed from the word go.

        Are you actually a chef - or even a keen amateur cook?

        If so, please start a recipes thread so we can all cook and enjoy.

        You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

          WTS!

          I was told at my last 6 months renewal that they really need me here...I felt like asking exactly what was it that I was supposed to be doing...

Even better is to take vary this piece of paper with others that you have. I have a monday piece of paper, a tuesday piece of paper....

                Well, it beats a real job doesn't it?
                For some reason I always remember the late, great John Peel talking about his only ever "proper job" I think for national service or something. Apparently that was his tactic, always carry a piece of paper around and look busy.
