# sporken like a true legend
I can't believe its nearly midday and all I've done today is try to organise a meeting with a muppet who can't use electronic diaries.

His time shows free - but he declines the meeting and suggests alternative times in the info, rather than proposing a new time properly. I have to recreate the meeting invite and then he did it again. I told him to invite me instead at a time that suits him so he did for a day I can't make at all, which shows clearly in my schedule, so I re-propose a time and he again declines with some dates in the info.

AAARRRGGGGHHHHHH! FUCKING LUDDITES!

so anyway. How are you?

# what a spaz
i is fine today thanks, missed a call today from someone chacing up some artwork, then email the artwork half an hour later to find that they're not in the office until later this afternoon so won't be able to see it.

off to bristol tomorrow afternoon in a courtesy car as mine is in for MOT.

# I work at an ad agency every day between 1:30pm and 5:30pm - I've been doing this for a year now
People without fail organise meetings in the morning, then get ratty when I can't make it.

# Thankfully the mornings job has just offered me a year's contract so I'll actually have a salaried wage from October
I might even get some semblance of a life back and *gasp* a bit of spare time!

# real time conversations are so 20th century
asynchronous diary editing is where it's at!

# It'll be great when asynchronois diary editing can be done in real time.
I think that's what google wave was all about.

# Luddites are generally quite good at conversations
as long as you don't tell them to use the calendar it will probably be pleasant.
