Movember

Avid blog followers know I don't like November. It's the busy time in carpet retail, and yes I know we should be grateful it's busy and I really truly am grateful.
BUT Movember is adding to my troubles. As expected a fellow co. worker "idiot?" came back from his holidays sporting "The Beard!" Not a nice tidy trendy neat affair. NO a bushy unruly straggly curly affair. He seems quite pleased with results I am NOT. I will stand by word I did tell him if he could grow a beard in his time off it would be acceptable at work. I'm hoping he will get bored with it very quickly and shave it off but I fear just to annoy me it's going to be staying for a while.

What's it all about?

I can't fathom it. My fellow co. workers "idiots?" just don't seem to get it. This morning out popped an "idiot?" from the back office. "I can't find ****** folder." This would be a work folder need for today. "Don't be stupid" said I. "No one was in your office yesterday. I was working on my own. It doesn't have legs. Go back and have another look." Off he popped. The folder wasn't mentioned again. And the boys went off to there job. I can only assume the folder turned up! A little bit later a fellow co. worker "idiot?" phoned up moaning quite what he expected me to do to solve his problems I do  not know. He winged away and then put the phone down. I can only assume he solved the problems for himself! perhaps I should start a help line. Wingers anonymous phone me with all your problems and they'll solve themselves. I might just give that a go.
