    1st ever contract sick day

    for me it is today and even more annoying I'm not actually ill but simply drank WAYY too much last night..

    it's so sickening that it is self imposed..

    and no I can't work from home, client has a secure network and no external access.

      I'm loving the fact that it's taken until 16:30 CET for you to be in a fit enough state to post this.

      Respect is due.

        Well done for having the sense to take the day off

          I ran out of water next to my bed and so picked up my laptop on the way back to bed..

            I had way too much last night. Got to the office at 9:15. ( 15 minutes later than usual ). Tonight I've got another "networking" event...

            You girly wimp you.

            ( I would love to go to sleep now, but the office is full, and noisy ).

                I'll concede - way too much for me is nowhere near as much as it used to be...

                The headache didn't start until 2pm this afternoon.

                  So, have you totalled up the true cost of last night.

                  Don't forget to include;
                  any apology costs for girlfriend chef
                  clothes that need replacing
                  that box of 20 lucky strikes you bought even though you don't smoke
                  the tenner you gave that homeless bloke
                  oh, and a days invoicing


                  Ouch!

                    If I added up all of my 'Ouch!' items over the years, I would be a seriously miserable boy.

                    Seriously.
