The truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth

In the world the "idiots?" and I share we have "isms" this is a euphemism for LIES!! I don't know why, but we go through certain phases when the "isms" get out of control.One minute a perfectly normal conversation is going on and then an "idiot?" will have an uncontrollable outbreak of "ismitius" and ruin it all. I don't know if the "idiot?" in question believes what they say, but I know the rest of us DON'T.

To work or not to work?

yesterday was my dads funeral so obviously no work for me. Today I didn't know what to do. Should I go to work? should I clean the house? should I go out for the day?.

I decided on the work option. And oh boy do I regret it. Yesterday was a complete and utter disaster. Grumpy welsh fitter didn't turn up for work and isn't in work today, he's got van troubles -why on earth he didn't just hire a van and get on with it I don't know- one of the "idiots?" disapproves of me and boss "idiot?" being at work and is huffing about - why he can't just accept people react in different ways at these times and working is our way I don't know- really annoying "idiot?" keeps telling me how manic it was yesterday, and that's why he couldn't come to the hotel after the funeral and have his customary sandwich - why I didn't bring him a doggy bag I don't know - newish "idiot?" apparently got in a right panic and was still here at 7 o'clock last night trying to re-organise - why he just didn't go home and sort it out today I don't know - I have decided today is a new day and the "idiots?" better just keep out of my way whilst I get things back on track.

BULLSHIT

In he sweeps. He's not your usual rep he doesn't drive a mondeo he drives a JAG. He tries to baffle you with his products. Except he knows nothing about his products. He brags to you about the fabulous meals he's eaten and the wonderful places he's visited. He makes you promises he will not keep. He offers you products for far less money than all the other suppliers and then the price goes up.He's one of the few we don't offer a beverage so he doesn't stay too long. Then off he goes leaving a whiff of expensive cologne. We call him BULLSHIT B*B.

Middle aged spread

My fellow co. workers "idiots?" are having new T'shirts for work wear. They have already received one delivery.But are now going to a different supplier. "WHY?" you are asking yourself. I know I'm asking myself this question, the first delivery of T'shirts are really nice, it's just the boys "idiots?" they don't like the sizing. Apparently the tops are a bit "SNUG!!" None of the "idiots?" have considered it's the middle aged spread that's the problem they think if they order else where they can order a smaller size. I think they're just kidding themselves.

Blog therapy post (do not read if you don't want to)

This post may not seem appropriate to many but I am who I am and I find writing my blog very therapeutic so here goes. For a long time but particularly over the last eight months my dad has been very ill. And on Wednesday whilst at work I got the telephone call every one dreads you need to come to the hospital now. Up I jumped and shouted at who ever was listening "I've got to go now" I thought I picked up my things -only to discover when I got to Cheltenham I hadn't picked up anything useful- and off I went. My fellow co workers "idiots?" were great one handed me my keys whilst having the forethought to remove all the keys he would require in my absence. Another asked me if I was O.K to drive myself and the others all got out my way as I ran out to my car. I spent that day saying goodbye to my dad. Yesterday not knowing quite how you're supposed to behave at these times I thought I must go to work and check that all the things I planned to do Wednesday morning had been done. My fellow co. workers "idiots?" had done me proud. I needn't have worried everything was as good as or if not better than it would have been had I been there.I know some of my fellow co. workers read my blog so "THANKS MATES". Don't worry all you non fellow co. workers it can't last long soon they will be up to there old tricks. I'll keep you posted as soon as I can. xx
