Insert Your Own Amusing Headline Here - I Can't Be Arsed

OMG. I had four days off last week - coincidently the Chelt Festival though I didn't go to the event personally nor did I watch any race but the Gold Cup live. I was far too busy shopping. ANYHOO my rant today is about when I got back to work this morning. First of all I probably should mention I have a new assistant though they are less an assistant than a pain in the ass who we all reckon has been hired in above my head despite the fact it was technically a receptionists post she applied for. Its JC who used to be one of our drivers. Anyway we do not like each other. No one specific reason just a clash of personalities / working styles & ethics, I think is a good word. IE she follows rules blindly to the letter while I bend them a little if its going to achieve the company its goals in the long term. But Im wandering!

She had been sitting at my desk all last week, which I hate anyone doing at the best of times, especially when they have their own perfectly fine desk. Not content with that alone she literally re-arranged all my things which you'll know agitates me something rotten. My phone was on the left hand side when I prefer the right, my computer had been moved further along the desk, she'd even snooped through my drawers & made comments to J about stuff that was in them. Erm nothing but work related stuff so I dunno what she was trying to get at.

Apparently though it isn't just me she pissed off. All the drivers are sick of her thinking she is boss & ordering them about. J's sick of her taking 30min fag breaks, 90min lunch breaks (gee now why does that sound familiar J?!) & poking her nose into everything especially when it doesn't concern her. Still I objected to her getting the job in the first place as I prefered AT but would J listen? Nooo. Now I'm just sitting back & waiting til JC puts the own nails into her coffin. I knew those two would clash from day one now I just have to exercise patience. I've seen off ever other dumb ass assistant we've had over the last two and a half years after all.

In other news this customer service NVQ still rumbles on, except I should finish it next Wednesday. Woopdefuckingdoo!! Though I will miss my girly chats with my assessor coz being the only girl-ish girl in the office what with JC being a butch lesbian & J only into cheap Matalan & ex catalogue stores, its hard sometimes. Who else have I got to talk fabulous shoes & designer handbags & clothes with??

And finally, I am still in love. Hey babes! x Ciao for now
