it just goes to show (if you're here for HNT it's below this post)
if you start the day in a positive way
you set yourself up for a fall
i was happy this morning
i'd had a good night out last night and was on a positive high for the day
but gradually work has dragged me down and down and down
i'm now so deep down that i can't see the light for the piles of shite work that i have on my desk
stupid proposals that are worthless and meaningless and generally realy crappy
projects that want the smallest of details changed which involved re-pricing everything, adjusting the figures to suit the sales team, the MD and the client, re issuing the document to the right people, once you've found out who the right people are that is, then there's the back log of tidying things up afterwards, copying files onto different servers so different people can find them, printing off hard copies of EVERYTHING used to make the quote up and then filing it all in the temperamental (emphasise mental when you read that back again later) filing cupboard in files that are too big to fit inside the hangers.
it's all crap
and i want to go home
but i can't because tonight i'm working in the pub!!!
i knew i should've brought my laptop with me, i could've done something useful while i was at the pub tonight, serving the 0 customers we have on a thursday (last week there were 3 people in and 5 staff, which gradually declined to the point of there being no customers and 5 staff)
somebody please take me away from all this
please
i'm begging you
rant over


for now

Poor Px. You could come work in the states and make loads of money with your sexy British accent.

Well, first I was thinking Australia or New Zealand, then I thought South America, then I thought a nice little tropical island, but I've settled on the US, at least for a year or two :-)
