True
I now have the odd situation where I'm in charge of some of my mates

This can be odd

yeah
one of my mates (and mate of my brother) is my brother's girlfriend's boss.

That can be awkward.

My mate works on reception here
She helped get me the job (by making blu-tack voodoo dolls of the other applicants).
I also got another mate a job here, he's one of the very few here that I'd consider having 'round my house.

there have been a couple through here who I just clicked with
and consider to be among my best friends. Unfortunately they have both left and moved to other cities. The bastards.

I think I've been here too long now!
Most of my mates work here!

Yep, one guy I clicked with, almost to bromance levels
Moved away before Christmas. Have just planned to meet him soon for drinks.
Edit: If you remember my shitty comics, he's the smoking guy with the bandanna.

my mate works for a company that tends to host the user group meetings for the software I use day-in, day-out
which is quite convenient.

Ah, the comics
Back in the annals of history.

I almost forget that Labs made them
because we didn't talk all that much back then

Nope, dunno why though

hadn't quite realised that we are almost the same person at that point.
aaah, the innocent time before The Picture

We're almost, but not quite
You know in Mario Kart, where you do a time trial, and later on when you're racing you see a ghost of your previous performance?

Yeah.

I know what you mean
"This is what happens when you go through life with a mohawk instead of a beard"

Well now you've seen my feeble starting attempts at a beard
I reckon I'll stick with the mohawk.

stick with what you know
