You know, it just struck me that I handed in my resignation two weeks and four days ago, and my head of marketing, who sits about 4 metres away from me, and is my head of department, has not said a word to me in that time. Today everyone was watching their mini scoreboards to see what was going on in the cricket, and as I was listening to it online, which is obviously quicker with the news, I shouted out that Vaughan was out. My boss asked how many for, and when I told him 166, he blanked me, turned to someone else and said ‘what was Vaughan out for?’ There are a couple of really kind, warm people there who I will miss, but, listening to the cricket, playing online scrabble and phoning Drunk at his hospital bed aside, I really cannot wait to leave.
I know it’s way down on my blog because I couldn’t work out how to put it on my sidebar, so I am re-promoting my countdown timer to here. And will put it in each post from now til out.
So Doc,,,is it a vocation, or are you the product of vicarious parents? Recidivist, I’m glad to hear that Drunk is getting better and thought now might be an appropriate time to ask…does he think he could upgrade me to the position of asshole, as I think ‘knob’ sounds a bit homo?
Cheers
Non compos mentis
P.S Check it out Doc, a whole post without an exclamation mark…well nearly!
I can only imagine that You’re answer to Boss ought to have been “good behaviour” or “a fortnight” “a good time” “caught behind”. 166 was the answer to “how many runs did he score”.
Either that or all those years of ventriloquay lessons hevae paid off and he thought it was someone else talking.
of course he may have just been disgusted that a female knew anything about leather on willow.
Hey Ho!
You are making sound progress TT but i remain guarded about your overall prognosis. I worry that the multiple comma’s is perhaps a result of exclamation mark suppression. A vocation? of course, but your question was really aimed at finding out about my parents wasn’t it?…classic Lector-Starling interplay, and I’m not biting.Your desire to be an asshole is interesting…were you bottle-fed?
I’ll show you how to sort the timer out on Tuesday, you just had to ask..
What do you mean was…I still am!
