Morning Nakers,
I've got the day off, so no meetings at all either. I will be wearing one jumper shortly, but at the moment, 0 jumpers.
I have to have another look at my brakes today, thought it was fixed, but last night it started pulling to the left again under heavy braking. I hope it's not a cylinder problem. If I bring it down to you, will you fix it for me?

morning wee pee, luicky you
I am working from home waiting for the heating to kick in, hence the double jumper.

I'll have a look at your brakes if you like I am about as qualified as most Kwik Fit "mechanics" after all

I am wearing no jumpers.
I am wearing a T-shirt that says 'Don't need no credit card to ride this train' and I don't care how much Monty abuse that is going to cause me.

And I do have a meeting, since you asked. Apparently it's going to take two hours for them to tell me that I mustn't leave people's personally identifiable data laying around, keep it longer than is necessary for business purposes or send to external people who have not signed a confidentiality agreement.

Guess what? I already know that.

They know you know that,
and in fact, probably don't want to bother with it either, but you know, covering their asses legally, and making sure if you do something stupid it's your fault not theirs. I always wonder about the people who do the talks are genuinely in to their subject like they come across, or whether they are constantly depressed that their area of expertise is pointless bullshit.

No jumpers, arvo meeting cancelled...

However, after checking my calendar I have found that at 10am we have one of those pointless efforts where one of the directors does a 'Kirsty Young' and tries to point out that they're 'one of us' by sitting at the end of the desk and reading out productivity numbers as everybody gathers round indifferently.

They're calling it a 'huddle' *shudders*

On another note, I firmly believe there are two distinct types of jazz - and they're both crap.*

I am, however, having email arguments with some guy in the US over some mandatory web courses all our staff have to take, which don't bloody work. Apparently, despite the same courses working for some people and not others all of whom are running identical software, it might be a software issue and to try running the course in Firefox.

Unfortunately, we have 1600 people trying to take this course, it's not working for a small number of people and I'm fucked if I'm letting them tell me it's because we're using the wrong web browser.
