Today, our regular staff training session: decorating eggs! How ace is that?
I got just the one vote for my feather boa'd effort, but it beats work right? What did you suckers do this morning?

This morning, although it has 10 minutes til it is officialy the afternoon, I walked up the road to buy a sausage roll from the bakers, and lots of junk food. Got in, watched a bit of tv while eating junk food, called my mum, then called the university to book my applicant day thingy....realised i was talking to Cheeseman!...
Got back on the computer, considering taking dog out, and doing some work...

My girlfriend and I decorated eggs on the night before Easter. We didn't get PAID for it, though.

One of the funniest bits of kids out of control/lame parents incidents I've ever witnessed was on an internal flight in SA - kid running up and down the aisle making a general nuiscance etc. Man sitting across from me calmly removed his belt and handed it to the kid's mother. When the women asked why he was giving her his belt, he calmly replied "because if you had one you'd clearly have used it by now"

when i was working in a shoe shop and tying this little brats shoelaces up he decided to kick me in the head hard enough to kick the studs in my ear right the way through, i had my head on the floor clutching my bleading ear while the mother ignored me and asked the kid if he liked his shoes...the thing is if id have refused to serve the kid id be the one in the wrong...definely gonna get a job where u can decorate eggs, then throw them at stupid customers
I wish i had a wooden heart that i could set on fire... |

HPM, pixiesteve, is there something you guys aren't telling us?
Kathryn, you might want to have that swimmming thing looked at.
My staff is developing nicely.
We were able to make a cast from the burn marks. We have deciphered the markings. The indicate the height of the staff. The grail will be ours soon!
So, needless to say, if you were waiting around with five bucks in your hand waiting to buy my upcoming brochure Understanding Poop, you can put that five bucks away, 'cause it ain't happenin.

Wilhelm are you are doctor?
For some reason, I thought this thread would be about staff infections.
Actually, I've had an unusually annoying morning. The whole day
went to shit early on because the pool was closed and
I have mental breakdown if I don't swim. Then at the library storyhour
that I took my kid to, some idiot had the balls to reprimand me
for asking his bratty kid to sit down and stop screaming. This after
the parent did absolutely nothing, just let the brat drive everybody else
in the room crazy. I was the only one who asked the kid to sit down, and which
she finally did. Then all the other parents thanked me. Except for the brat's
bratty parent. I am still stunned. I had so many good comeback lines,
none of which were appropriate to say in front of little people.
I hate not being able to use a good comeback line!

Whish I had been at your job today Surfer.
I had to deal with lots of screaming kids, my ears still ringing. The tonsillectomy list.

Back on topic:
This morning may have been pretty boring, however this afternoon I've witnessed some of the most hysterically funny exchanges yet to be had in the studio.
We are currently working on a campaign for a men's pubic hair trimmer/shaver.

Miss Kitty you are the first english person I have ever encountered who has this refreshingly sane approach to expiry dates. I get treated as if I am some mad animal for eating food that is *gasp* past it's expiry date. The way I see it is that we're all animals and if it smells bad or tastes funny DON'T EAT IT! It's that simple.

she marker penned them on, these were emergency eggs for emergency filthy breakfasts and they didn't have the date on the actual egg, and because the eggs simply *must* sit in the egg tray in the fridge to save room (even though there is never anyhing in our bloody fridge except a jar of mustard and some chillis) and the date is only on the box.
you see, i tried telling her that the expiration date was just another trick to get you to buy more eggs and you could to the thing with the glass of water to check if they were off but nooo
expiraton dates, they're a funny thing, quite often i'll wander into the kitchen to find her binning all sorts because of the dates on them, like loaves of bread, each time i'll ask 'did you check see if it was ok?' and no, and most of the time it is ok as well I mean if it's not hard as a board and turning green it's probably just fine, cheese there's another, cheese doesn't go off, it might go mouldy round the edges but those bits you just cut off and the rest of the cheese is fine. Sure milk I understand but pickles? I mean lawks.
anyway, it's an anal retentive thing I think. (says I)

Why would your housemate marker pen the expiration date out on your eggs?

the minor stuff is the most annoying, i agree, liars are bad people, my mum said that liars tongues will eventually go black and drop off so i take solace in that
this morning i mostly slept, well i worked till about 2.30am then watched family guy till around 5am but the rest of the morning asleep.
i want to decorate one of those non chicken babies, my housemate went and marker-penned the expiration date on all of ours though so i can't.
plus, i'm 24, it's a bit 'kiddy'
I might make an easter bonnet instead

Weird isn't it - it's usually the minor stuff that's the most annoying.
Or is that just me?

Ooh lets see - fixed a major cock up (thank you idiot repro house) on some rather important signage for a client, sent 9 press ads out, loaded 3 cds onto my itunes (all 3 shit, therefore a waste of my time) and pretended to work while playing on the internet.
An average morning really.
