Friday is starting horribly so far, two separate client meltdowns and more to look forward too!

Only a few more days until GTA V though, the last few hours are always the worst. Going to be a looooong weekend.

Oh god.
I get to work, find out my manager is skiving for "personal issues" which means he got hammered last night.
My apprentice was supposed to go to our storage place and get some screens to bring here. I find out he only left his fucking HOUSE at 9am, rather than getting here for 9 like a normal person.
Then I find out our whole fucking network is going down this morning & I'm on my own in the warehouse. THERE'S NO TIME FOR ALL THIS SHIT.


Fuck Friday 13th.

Yay, I have some shitty news that I also heard today!

My gaffer just rang to tell me that I'm getting shifted/shafted over to New Business, which means I'll be doing schools and stuff 24/7.

:/

On the plus side Radders (the gaffer running that side) is cool as fuck. Especially compared to my current sad sack gaffer!

Swings and roundabouts innit.

Apart from being tired, I'm quite chilled out today.

Managed to stay calm whilst talking to the lovely people in our Hong Kong office even when they did something I told them not to. Definitely looking forward to 4PM today, weekend (not got anything planned but I'll play it by ear) then one day at work and then GTA!!!!

Barclays fucked up and didn't cancel my standing order for my rent. So I just paid rent twice this month!! YEA!! Not cheap!!!

Also I am suppose to ask for my sabbatical today to senior management and he isn't here (probably hung over) so it makes it even more awkward.

Well least there is lunch to look forward to...get some beer in me. Haven't had a beer since last Friday.

Edit: Actually I am in a very good mood despite all the bull shit and little stress I have going on right now.

I'm just getting pissed off with companies taking the piss when it comes to ordering shit from them. And they're quick to take money but when it comes to giving back, they'll take as long as they want. I'll be happier come Monday when I can watch Breaking Bad, and even more happier come Tuesday when I get my PS3 and [hopefully] my TV.

Just look at the brightside, at least you're getting the money back :) Being upset sucks you guys. Not worth it being down over the most mundane shit.

Probably going to go in store on Tuesday and hope Tesco still has copies. If not, I'll have to go to Stratford and check every single shop.

No but my girlfriend did it 7 years back (shes a dirty polack), she claims it was by far the best decision she ever made. I would love to do it one day but pretty sure I lack the necessary testicles to do such a thing.

This Blue Jay (never heard of it) is wicked. I was so baked last night, and I have plenty for over the weekend.

I'm sorted, as it were.

Mind if I ask how old she was at the time and if she had some specific education/experience? Or what she did when she got here?
Click to expand...

23 years old and was a graduate (anthropology, ethnology to be precise......yea) which was basically useless. She had a small amount of money saved and stayed in really terrible cheap shared rooms for a while. Got a job as a nanny quite quickly... done that for maybe 5-6 months then worked for Cineworld for a while etc etc etc various other jobs in retail / temp office work.

Maybe 3ish years ago she managed to get a job for the Police in Scotland Yard doing background checks basically. Wouldn't say she loves her job but considering where she started she has done rather well, puts my lazy ass to shame anyway.

Clearly you're to blame for all of this!

Turns out I could get GTA V tonight, but already have a preorder with Amazon and wont be home until late. My patience is running thin right now.

Didn't even get it delivered to work, postie better not have any funny ideas when delivering the millionth DVD shaped amazon package on Tuesday.

£32.89 offer for GTAV from Flubit. In the grand scheme of things, it's a very good price....but I was hoping for £30.

I suppose the question is if I wait until I get paid and buy it then, will I be pissed off that I can't find a sub £40 price anywhere?

Home time in two hours too. My afternoon is turning out better than my morning!

18th is the official launch. It's quite different, assuming your eye sight is good I will show you some good shit that makes it look better.

Good purchases.
