Grumblin at Garmin on the Granny Gear
Just been very sweary on the phone. Got two teams of admin staff who can't decide who between them needs to put an order on the finance system - it's a two minute job. There is a massive email trail now. I've emailed the supervisor and bluntly asked what the hell is going on. It's not something I should even be involved with

I had a session last week with a support team! kept telling them that their web page kept rejecting my email as invalid, even though it clearly wasn't, since I was using it. Even sent them a screen dump!

Grumblin at Garmin on the Granny Gear
Ran errands in town this morning. Bought a new wall clock for the bathroom in Wilkinsons. No bog roll, soap or hand gel on the shelves.

Have spent the afternoon painting.

My get-up-and-go seems to be returning slowly.

You have a clock in the bathroom?

Sainsbugs here in Moortown is just the same.Just got back large gaps,but they are doing a massive makeover and moving things around.Much to the annoyance of it's customers.Why can't they leave well alone.It seems it's all to do with increasing vanity products.Makeup and all that sort of stuff,it seems there might be live demonstrations on makeup.I might find the body shop part.

They're doing the same in our local one in N21. Rearranging the shelves and building a Specsavers as well, might come in handy one day!

This sounds like a minor nuisance for most people but it's a nightmare for our clients who have issues like Autism or who can't see.
 
Two cats show prepped this morning and had their claws clipped, carriers sorted, show kit sorted.

Also dropped a parcel off at the post office. We have a travelling post office here in the village. The lady who does that post office asked me if there were cat treats in the parcel... :laugh: Not this time, it was a jar of homemade marmalade as a thank you for someone.

Now just having a quiet afternoon painting. Am back out at 6pm to help set up the show hall for tomorrow.
