Getting into work and not being able to log onto the database we use. Do the usual restart the laptop. Check the password etc. Nada. Call IT. She tries a few things. I comment that this is a bit annoying as I leave the team on Friday and need to get on with recording. She then asked which team I am in. So turns out that HR have been superdooper efficient and have set me up in the new team as of last Friday (I donât start until Jan 2nd) so they deleted my old account. Thankfully sorted.
Later on I get invited to an induction on Wednesday. I politely email back saying I am moving after 2 years in the workplace and have quite a lot to do before I leave so I wonât be attending. I donât think it was this efficient when i started before!
Gremlins doesnât even make the top 20 of Christmas movies WTAF? And has anyone actually watched âItâs a Wonderful Lifeâ??
I love Itâs A Wonderful Life!

It is made up of the opinions of the 7,000 people who still buy the Radio Times though. Iâm assuming theyâre all over 90.

Some selfish toe rag has come into work and spread their germ so , which via the ac, has now infected me.
I fucking hate colds and particularly when the fridge is bursting at the seems with top tucker and I wonât be able to taste a thing.
I hope whoever did this to me get an excruciatingly painful dose of genital warts.

âColleaguesâ attempting to throw you under the bus for a major howler while you are taking a few days leave - (so I donât lose holiday).
Luckily the interconnectedness of the worldwide interweb meant I saw emails and could call them out & have support of the Board to back me up.
Am looking forward to being back in the office on Monday (if only to log on, log off, go to the pub after giving some people a right royal bollocking on Xmas Eve).
As much as I hate to give a bollocking, but when when people are willing to blatantly lie about something to try and save their own asses, goodwill goes out the window.
I suspect Iâll be recruiting in the new year 
Merry Christmas

Upvoted out of sympathy obvs.
My partner who insists on using speaker phone on all calls in the home.
Surely that could be easily remedied with some carefully âunaware they were on the phoneâ and âfactually inventiveâ loud background comments? Iâll open it up to sotonians to make some suggestions as to what these potentially defaming comments could be.
