Back whenI used to work for a now (probably unsurprisingly) defunct retailer, I inherited a job that was mostly number crunching. The previous incumbent used to spend hours manipulating figures in pencil on huge sheets of paper, trying to make everything balance.
Cue two days work building a spreadsheet that did the entire week's work by about ten o'clock on Monday. Much skiving followed. Had that job for three years 'til they caught on and made me redundant.
Also, the boss was a bit of an alky, and the usual two-hour lunch breaks in the pub could also be nicely extended simply by timing them so that they ended just as he was coming in. He'd always buy you a pint.
Lovely chap. Drank himself to death, but lovely chap.
