I hate coming out of a meeting to find that all the threads have got shitloads of replies
makes it much harder to swing the conversation round so it's about me.

Hell she's just a phone monkey,
I wouldn't have had such a go at her if she had returned my call pre 5pm yesterday, like she promised, but she went home instead.
I fucking guilt tripped her to fuck for that,
"do you know how hard it is to hear you've gone home when I haven't got a home to go to"rofl

one of our clients put in an email that I was a credit to the company the other day
so you can be a good little phone monkey if you try.
I just wish he'd CCd it to the boss so I don't have to print it out and put it on my wall in the hope that someone will notice.

I have given them the ultimatum to either let me back in tonight
and continue to reside there until the 26th of next month, which is 5 months into a 6 month contract. And I will sign a "notice requiring possession" which lets them legally evict me without notice from midnight 27th. Or I unleash legal hell, which will delay the sale of the property past the 26th.

When I'm bored
I like to google things like where to go next on holiday, or what car will I be buying in a few months, or what bass guitar.
Sometimes not only passes the time but provides motivation. Sometimes mind..
The answers of course are Tuscany, a VW Polo and a white Fender J-Bass..
