I have holes. Bigguns. Absolutely massive holes. Everywhere.
Tomorrow they are due to be filled with concrete, however i'm unable to get in touch with the chap who needs to sign them off as being of sufficient quality.
2 calls yesterday, 4 today so far. I'm getting known by everyone in his office, but will he speak to me? No.
If he turns up mid-pour then he may well go in with it. That'll learn him. Grrrr.

Hello.
I am WFH and I'm off to the child's school show in a bit. The PM's niece is coming with me. The PM went to this mornings performance.
Need to cut the grass before the weekend. Should get a chance tomorrow.
Lovely day out.

My boss phoned me a few minutes ago to say she'd set up a call with some admin people to tell them that they were crap at taking minutes and needed to do them better. She then said she couldn't make the call, and needed me to cover it. "Tell them their minutes are shit, and need to be less shit. But obviously don't put it like that" When's the meeting? , I asked innocently "Oh, now. It's already started. You're late" Cheers I wouldn't have taken the meeting in that scenario. You need time to prepare and highlight examples to these employees individually and tactfully. Your boss honestly sounds like a real POS. |

Back from the child's school show. All very good. I realise I do have to say that to her face, but not here.
The PM's folks just been telling us they're dropping off a cake on Saturday morning at 9. The PM delicately explaining that's a bit fucking early for a Saturday.
Could do with a beer.

Our bins were collected on Sunday the other day. Felt a bit outlandish. The internet says it’s Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, but it was definitely Sunday the other day.

I didn't know there was a TVR Scamander. He must be very proud. |

Is this why they say London is now full of no-go areas? Bin lorries clogging up every road almost every day of the week?

You need time to prepare and highlight examples to these employees individually and tactfully. Your boss honestly sounds like a real POS. She means well, but is completely chaotic. Quite often when I first log on in the morning I'll have emails from her that were sent at 2am, with some rambling idea she's randomly had. She's notorious for setting up meetings to discuss a particular topic, then forgetting what she's supposed to be talking about, going off on tangents, then saying she has to go as she's got something else she needs to do. Absolute shambles |
