Oh, I didn’t get to share this the other day.

So on Friday I knew my team leader wouldn’t be there for most of the day. Brilliant, cause it means I can cruise through the day just getting stuff done.

Except for one thing - this other lady in my “team”1 thinks she has the right to micromanage me. Just try me and see where that gets you.

Lunch time comes and I go off without a word to anybody. I was meeting up with some mates that I wasn’t able to catch up with before I left this week. 75 minutes goes by and I’ve walked back in, booted up my PC2. This is the conversation after I sat down:

Pseudo team leader: “And where have you been?”
Me: “Lunch, with mates”

I was going to add something like ‘Got a problem with that?’ Or ‘What business is it of yours?’ but I didn’t. I kept my guts knowing I didn’t have long until my contract was finishing.

This is a lady who arrives 2 hours at least after I get there of a morning and watches the clock as I leave. And also has no right to question my work ethic.

Being at this place has definitely been an experience.


  1. I use that word very loosely here cause I’m basically working on my own

  2. It shuts down after 20 minutes

@kdfrawg Indeed. There’s not that much I can look forward to these days so I usually hold on to the smallest little thing that’ll make me happy.

@kdfrawg I’ll take that. I knew one of you had to be. What can I say, I was spoiled for choice.

Yep, especially when it goes for double the time you’re meant to have. Oops! … not! It was fun though, and a pretty decent feed at that.

@kdfrawg is that the last piece of cherry pie you’re tempting us all with? This just isn’t fair! I haven’t had dinner yet!

2nd last day at work. Seriously unmotivated but looking forward to lunch with some BCC mates.

@kdfrawg ok so even though I took both consoles I got seriously addicted to Mario Odyssey and didn’t use my PS4 at all. Yep I’m sad.

exactly. I try to only buy my lunch once a week, but there are some weeks where it all blows out of proportion.

It really is. It’s quite peaceful listening to Sunny chirping during the day though.

yeah, it is. It’s much easier to indulge and buy lunch each day, which can get a little expensive.
