    Upon answering it I was asked for somebody I'd never heard of, but who definitely isn't based in this office.

    I had to admit to the caller that I didn't know enough about the phone system to be able to transfer them to the switchboard, nor did I know what ClientCorp's phone number is

    This is why I never usually answer phones
    My phone here was used by someone quite high up at some stage. Now I get loads of agencies ringing to see if there's any work here.

    Ditto - no idea what the number is, how to transfer it, or anything.

        That time already? Doesn't time fly when you're enjoying yourself

        I just had the guy in charge of this stuff I'm working on IM me to see what I was up to. I didn't like to say "Nothing"...

        Off to correct the levels of indentation on something now - it makes me feel diligent and virtuous

            Can't decide what to do about lunch myself...

              Oops, I accidentally found some work to do

              I think I'll save it for after lunch.

                Which brings me back to the question of lunch...

                  I could get a bacon roll and bring it back to my desk...

                    .. or one could substitute "sausage" for "bacon" in the previous idea...

                      .. or perhaps a roast beef sandwich...
