An unswerving desire to punch somebody in the face.
And a plaster on my arm.

Oh good,
Now that I don't need to worry about my safety, what happened?

Just people being stupid, really.
Basically, I've said "you can't support this project because the applicant isn't eligible under the scheme, and the project is a bit rubbish anyway and probably more suited to a different grant scheme.".

I'm now responding to a long email from a panel member that is basically saying "I think we should support this project".

This is my life. Most of my email correspondence seems to consist of polite ways of saying, "No you can't", "Over my dead body", and "Fuck off".

I think I'd like a job like that
It's better than what I do now.

If only you could do the same without having to use polite words.

This was after telling them at the initial stage
that to be funded, the applicant would have to be x, y or z. Yet they still submitted an application without taking this into account. Which meant that I still had to waste four hours of my life doing an appraisal of a project that there was no way we could support.
