    Morning all.

    Extra WfH day today. Was due to go down to Norwich but they've all given up and decided to WfH themselves because of the weather. So I get to sit around in my pyjamas drinking proper coffee instead

      You lucky, lucky b'stard!

      The team I'm in, working from home is virtually verboten - I heard one year there was severe snow and the esteemed leader made everyone that couldn't come in take a holiday rather than VPNing. And to rub it in, all the other non-IT teams are in constant WFH mode.

      Probably explains why there's such a churn rate here.

      Still, beats working for a living...

        Tired. Bored. Listless. Fed up. Hungry. Irritable.

        Want to punch the esteemed leader's head in.

        Been given a task that a junior can do. CSS changes. 5 mins.

        Really need to look at making plans to move on. It's only the cycling that keeps me here, and I'm not doing much of this at the moment.
        Think of the invoice

              If its any consolation permies at numptyco are getting their knickers in a twist over a board presentation.

              In the meantime the only thing that I'm getting my knickers in a twist over is getting a new gig. Just heard back yesterday about another gig I was waiting on - that's been canned too

                Am hoping it doesn't snow till tomorrow, so I can fly home tonight, after that I don't care.

                  It wasn't actually a problem in London yesterday, doesn't seem to be today either but things are different in Norfolk (apparently).

                    Ah, it appears they aren't renewing me. Probably for the best as I was getting tired but will miss the cycling...

                    Annoyed the agency and the esteemed leader hadn't told me last week....

                      Quite a lot of sommat.
                      Mostly fecked up servos.

                      A nice new chinese one a) didn't pull down the drive voltage from the pic and b) didn't continously scan back & forth with a steady input.
