you were not moonlighting at the Barcelo Las Margaritas hotel in Playa del Ingles in March this year? As that would explain why the barrier came down on my head whilst I walked under the thing. First time in the 2 weeks we were there that it was lowered, just as I walked under. Yes the guy who I was talking to at the time asked if I needed any barrier cream

go on org laugh at my expense.

You think that's bad, I work for the NHS as a business analyst but could talk to you about printer/slotter scorers, die cut cartons and the all important love cup in the ink pot... What you running, Piemme, Bendazoli, Klett?


How's that for sad?

Last minute entry... I'm a local government back-office bureaucrat
I can be mostly found pushing pens, shuffling large piles of papers, and generally wasting tax-payers money on 'Governance' that no-one really cares about...

Although on an actual note, I attend boring meetings with elected Councillors who will waffle garbage for hours on end and have to endlessly take notes of the meetings, only to relive the experience by typing them up, not to mention chasing reports from people who are too stupid to understand the term 'deadline'.
(Evidence of the outcomes of my boringness work can be found here - if you're lucky, you might be able to find my name on one or two of them, lol!)

As for the prize, my desk at work has boxes of paperclips, and I also have a rubber thimble (mine's a Size No.0 - a green one!) lol

This week I got to calculate the size of the bars in Newcastle soon to be new market stalls - taking special notice of what happens when the local wildlife swings off the bars at chucking out time.

Now thats why I went to uni(!)
