Please tell me you're not working the next two weeks

Gah, I'd help if I could.
You must be epically stressed...

it's no wonder i'm on medication.
but there's nothing quite like a deadline to focus the mind.
or cause it to implode!
LOL

I'd agree with you there, actually; I work best under pressure.
Just a shame it usually nearly drives me mental, too...

i've simply got too much to do in the time.
something will have to give.
i'll be doing a few late shifts.

You'll have to I guess, are you your own boss?
That makes it easier.

In case he's buggered off.

to quote Bill Hicks...
"the thought that ANYONE could be my boss? i think you see the problem."

I was told I was too stroppy to have a boss when I was 17 or so.
If anything I think I'm stroppier now and for some reason I still have a job.

yeah, i'm a self-employed Plumber with an apprentice.
so i have an advantage i guess.
the problem i find myself facing is that i have VERY high standards. and this work is for myself and my family so i'm not managing to compromise at all.
Bugger.

Bah, caught out by your own standards.
Still, the place will be absolutely palatial when you do move in, right?
( Maladicta, Tue 20 Oct 2009, 21:30, Reply)

it's gonna be fooking gorgeous.
i completely gutted the place, absolutely removed every shred of it's previous identity.
all that remains of the original is the lower staircase and one internal wall. the rest is all new.

It sounds amazing!
I invoke POIDH when you're properly settled :)
( Maladicta, Tue 20 Oct 2009, 21:38, Reply)

it's a deal!
TBH i'm getting a bit fed up with it now, it's gone on too long.
i'm more tired right now than i have ever been. but it's a strange kind of tiredness.

Much obliged!
I bet you're fed up with it, I would be by now - where you can't see anything but what needs doing before it's all done...
( Maladicta, Tue 20 Oct 2009, 21:41, Reply)

right now i'm not sure what to do next.
too much going on in my brain.
( blaireau69 , the Cumbrian Travis Bickle., Tue 20 Oct 2009, 21:45, Reply)

Disengage brain for a bit.
Works for me.
( Maladicta, Tue 20 Oct 2009, 21:46, Reply)
