Rules Are There To Be Broken

For the last few evenings I have been indulging in shots of Baileys Irish Cream served in a chocolate cup. Mmm delicious.

Anyway £12k T was back (he had last week off) to his usual annoying self. I am snowed under with fuel claims again & I'm under strict orders not to do any work for T whatsoever. That still didn't stop him from bombarding me with things not five minutes after I'd arrived at work this morning. Asking me to do anything before 9.30am is a bad idea coz I have drivers to dispatch, regular contracts to sort out & collect in any previous days takings, so really he was asking for the sharp response he got.

Then when I did help him out he went on to moan that the phone number I got from BT 118 wasn't the right one. I asked the lady at BT exactly what he told me to ask her so if it was wrong then he should try looking in the mirror. Anyway he phoned this number & it turned out it was the right one... only as he doesn't have permission from our board of directors to be privy to our tax info, the person at the other end of the phone refused to tell him anything. The steam coming out of his ears was hilarious & it made my day - in my defence its been a very slow day!

So to pass the time I have been a right rebel & broke five office rules: 1) Gave the drivers some washing up liquid to clean their buses with 2) Handed out "illegal" (dont ask long story) biscuits 3) Gave the guys some more coffee to refil their jar with 4) Took the executive decision to give a client the best bus of the fleet (which is only supposed to be used on long journies) coz JK hadn't bothered to allocate him a bus and I didnt want him gettin irrate & 5) Fed "Scraggy" (not its real name, its just what we call it coz it looks a bit... well scraggy!) the site cat, which is now sporting a new silver & diamante collar. He or she looks very flash. I felt sorry for it after playing with my mates kitty, Tigger last Saturday. I personally reckon its a boy although no one has got close enough to verify its gender yet. Maybe one day.

And finally my resolution to be nice continues: I gave my protege my barely used large bottle of not cheap, Estee Lauder Beyond Paradise perfume. I never wear it as it reminds me of the ex bf that gave me it plus I never even liked the smell in the first place! Still the nice thought WAS there.

Ciao for now

TJ
