One is constantly winging about how things are not perfect – which is exactly why we are here as the governance team.

As for my former client (ie, now boss, contractor who had to change to permie), I am doing half of his work as well as my own.
Office politics are the worst I have seen, anywhere.
Working so far from home (60 miles) I have the joys of a Travelodge on Wednesdays.
Can somebody humour me and make their life sound worse?
