Its been a long week,and its been one of THOSE weeks,where if you were lucky you had a chance to sit down and blow your nose.
In the space of 4 days I have had to revise and reproduce something close to 12 drawings for client approval.The amazing thing is that  I managed to get it done with the help of no one - not that any help was forth coming mind you - they all had their own deadlines on their own stuff.
My Branch Manager in his ultimate wisdom decided to agree to a ridiculous deadline for me,just to keep the client happy.
But when i told him it was the client who was just trying to jerk everybody around - i was told - tough luck,I HAVE to do it.(....oh really now?)
I dont know,but in my book - you dont have to do anything that you really dont want to  - not when you are pushed into a corner the way that i was.
I had a good feeling that i would get the work done in time - but why tell him that - then i get ridden  over all the time.
 
So as i said,its Friday - I am tired as hell -and the work is finished - and after all that,the client is only in a position to take the drawings on Tuesday next week.
So,why the fuck did i bother?.....like i said,I dont feel like working anymore

    CJ ~ I'm gonna slap ya! seriously look at it this way, you have started your weekend with no overdue work, you are free to enjoy your weekend without having to think about it now.  (Yeh I know clients can be cunts, that will nevah change)

Wow, it's Thursday and I haven't, as of yet, gotten past my Monday passive/aggressive mentality...sigh. Thursday, it can't be past three pm on Monday. I just recently returned from leave and the whole mentality of being at work can be described as being...
I suppose, anyway, just quit looking at my coffee ... that'll get you into trouble and you don't want trouble....
