My ears are ringing. Two hours of routing slots in aluminium angle have taken their toll. I've got ear defenders but they mean you can't hear any weird changes in cutter noise that can warn you of impending disaster. It's an intractable problem.

Try using them on the one ear, swapping at regular intervals.

I had a slice of lemon cake.

You kept it all for yerssen!

You kept it all for yerssen!

That's cos there only was one slice.

Anyways, off to bed for me.

Anybody else not feeling the love for going to work today ?

Chasing up applications. Stuck in a phone queue at the moment.

It appears that no-one knows anything -in either organisation- so I need to call someone else. Possibly today, possibly Friday.

If I'm lucky they may pick up the phone by then...

So, three people had no idea and passed me on... and on... and on...

Finally reached one person who knows what is going on in one of the places and they -to be fair- apologised and said I need to wait until next week. Apparently there are lots of jobs being advertised in lots of departments and there's a backlog.

I'm not sure if that's a good or a bad thing.

Work

There is only really one person on my team at work whom I just don't like. I just don't like the way he criticises everyone and calls everyone stupid and useless behind their back and makes all sorts of sexist jokes about the girls on our team and giving out that he's only joking and that people have no sense of humour and can't take a joke. It is not just me who doesn't like him.

The good news today is that he has been moved to a different department so I will never have to listen to his insulting nonsense ever again

Get the cakes in for everyone

I didn't get wet cycling to my 'training' this morning.

Morning. We have sunshine and blue skies with a bit of mackerel cloud at the moment.
Still not completely with it . Woke up early and couldn't get back to sleep. I finally nodded off and then woke up with dead hands.
