My new employer has blocked b3ta and I'm generally too knackered in the evenings to bother, so it looks like goodbye until I either win the lottery or become a bestselling author.

You have no idea how traumatic it is having to work all day. It'll be the death of me, I'm sure.

But....no.

I want to refuse to believe this. Let it be as true as many of your other stories, please let it be...

Noooooooo!
Don't go! Too knackered in the evenings? You only have to sit in front of the computer and type. How knackered can you be?

Just remembered I have your email address. I can stalk you there : )

This is a travesty.
Do they not know how integral we all are to the functioning of the workday?

B3ta must get shitloads in donations...
Maybe they can fund a Frankspencer salary?

Or
just gird up thy loins and get back here in the evenings like many of us do!

I don't fucking think so. Who's your new employer? We'll be round to put the frighteners on the IT Nazi, I mean admin.

Hang on...
You posted this at 21:55 GMT. Methinks mrspencer doth lead us up the garden path, and no mistake...


Seriously, I hope this doesn't spell the end. get a book written and published; let us all know what it's called; all of us will buy it and you can relax on the royalty cheques that flood in. Best of both worlds. It's a thought...

B3ta is a dissasociation from work.
You see, at work Im having to worry about when people complain their PCs are slow. Or they need dreamweaver installing, or I need to re-install Windows on a laptop... And its all mind numbingly boring. So I flick off the helpdesk screen for a bit of a read of b3ta. So i can be thinking about what i've read whilst involuntarily performing my work duties.

The fact is. Im performing my work duties. If it wasnt for b3ta. Id just sit there with my hands over my face and slump onto my desk and remain lifeless until 5pm comes around. Knowing i can read b3ta at least makes me use the PC.

oi, no!
Become a bestselling author. I will help you out on the bestselling part by buying at least 2 copies of whatever you write. Don't leave, you're important.
