What did you do at work today?

[alpine]

Me - 2 format reloads

Installed new motherboard for a customer

Sorted driver problems for a dell laptop

Oh, and the other small thing of serving customers in a busy shop and no chance for a fkin lunchbreak.

I did get a £2 tip off a lady for a very burdensome task of installing Word from a CD.. it made my day so much better.

Was your day as hard as mine?

[PsychoHippy]

I got up - popped to the service station, bought some John Smiths, watched the match with a couple of beers, and am now off to play rugby in the park with my fast-approaching-my-size 'little' brother.

It'll be good practise, I've finally been given the all-clear to play rugby again, and one of my PTI's has drafted me into a match for the (very) amateur team at work.

"No problem" sayeth I, "Who are we playing?".

"HMP Belmarsh, the toughest nick in London" spake the PTI.

on friday, my day consisted of doing 'book back'

this means ringing companies who have had temp drivers for the week, and seeing if they want them back next week. Then I ring the drivers to check they want to go back next week.

What made my day, was finally getting a driver into a new job. What made this special, was that it took a bit of work on my part to pull it off, I had been making calls each day on it, and the driver appreciates it. His job is coming to an end, and if he didnt get something that paid as well, he would have difficulty making ends meet as he is the only breadwinner for his family. Its not often I get such a powerful feeling that im helping people.

Gratitude costs nothing but it can mean the world some times, and other times its just a good feeling that you have helped someone.

Although I cant get too keen on this, if it clashes with the needs of the business. We are there to make money after all

Well I did two test drives this afternoon, 1st one, married couple in their 50s went on a drive for 10 miles , 5 miles into drive he or his wife farted, smelt like stale bitter (so yeah must of been him ) no one said anything, I thought should I open the window or not, or take it like a man... took second option (sold the car tho )

second test drive... bloke in his late 20s went on a 4 mile drive, and the chap had Tourette's he kept looking at me and flintching and very vocal with his hands, we went in to my office and he kept getting out of his seat then sitting back down. (no sale)...

normal Saturday afternoon then...

Disclaimer: have nothing whatsoever against people with Tourette's my son has a mild form of it.

As a side issue, I notice in the Independent that Dirty Pretty Things played a gig at HMP Pentonville the other day ... is this a regular thing, or is it something new - that crims now get their very own rock concerts?

Belmarsh is now a high security super Cat-A nick, and is thus stuffed full of high profile terrorist types, rather than just old-school burly bank robbers.

Huge amounts of crime are due to drugs, and are thus committed by heroin-addled skinny junkies.

I'm thinking about springing some of my African lads for the day, I've got a guy on one of my wings that nearly put me through a wall with a friendly punch after I questioned his sexuality. He'd make an ideal member of the Front Row!

Was in Hospital this afternoon having both legs MRI'd.

[california_rookie]

Castrated some cattle!

Started by grabbing two dozen donuts at six in the morning. Got to work, saddled up the horses, rounded up about a hundred head of cattle, seperated the heifers from the calves, ran the heifers through the 'big chute' and gave them the appropriate vaccinations, ran the calves through the 'little chute' and gave them their shots and a brand and castrated the males, ran those back to thier respective pastures, rounded up another bunch and repeated. Nine hours of fun without a break.

I haven't done a tap all week but yesterday (Saturday) I shot 639 wedding photographs for Amy and Ross. Today I'll edit the images (take about 30 minutes) and thats it for the week.

[stitch]

Got to work ten minutes late, no post due to strike so feet went up on desk, chair back, music on pc, had a snooze.

Dam the phone for ringing, fielded half a dozen calls all day. Feet still on desk. Still no post, more snoozing.

Left work ten minutes late to account for arriving late. conscientious worker me.

I didn't go to work today (I get mondays off ) so I started to work on my project XJ but it just wasn't agreeing with me so I came back inside and made this instead.

(Don't listen to it if you don't like badly produced, half finished and badly played pop punk tunes!)
