Journey- Journal #

Listening to; NYC Beats
Feeling: Frustrated, Confused and Optomistic

F****** hell,!
Set out early for work today in the hope of making some time up, proved to be a big mistake.
Traffic lights alternated between allowing pedestrians to cross and the traffic flowing across the junction to go, but not our side.
I was second car back from lights and wondered just exactly how long someone would site there before they did something. So, after three changes, I did a u-turn and chose a second route, only to be stuck behind some air head in a battered fiat panda doing 5 mph. Lost that snail and ended up following another.
The entire journey took three times as long as normal, why the f*** do I bother?
Flexible working is fine, except when situations are not your fault, It’s like you can feel the punishment but you can’t commit the sin.
Maybe I was naughty in a previous life lol.
Not sure why I care, nobody chases ot hasseles me about being in debit or credit, it’s just an inbuilt sense of guilt cos it does not set a good example for a team leader.


The situation on the domestic front has been a little fraught recently, so some of theses blogs are not as upbeat and interesting as I would like. Confidence tends to dictates my mood and my writing, so apologies if some e entries are a bit turgid. I promise to try and do better.

Yesterday afternoon’s training was enjoyable. I think a lot is dictated by who else is there , particularly when working in groups. Nice to be with two bubbly vivacscious ladies, cutting out shapes, folding and pasting then using childrens letter blocks to spell the highest scoring word and I am getting paid for this!

Seriously, I thought I was a star, when I managed to generate the word ‘Behaviourism’, whilst working with our communications manager. She apologised to me for not being good at games…yeah… and I am Mr Competitive lol.

The down side was that we later learned that the scores were not those on the blocks but one for a vowel and two for a consonant, with the exception of Q,Z,or X ,Which score 10.
If the word was customer relations related you got double.
So eventually came up with ‘Expectation’ (pluralisation not allowed). The top score was Questionnaire.

Missed the Gym last night, did some weights at home instead, better than no exercise at all.
Tonight should be going to Cinema. I say should , cos it depends upon how we feel. Good intentions often get overridden by
lack of enthusiasm and energy. Not sure I want to see Spider man but Pirates would be good.

Sad as I am to leave you I will be back tomorrow, keep smiling and take care.
