2Bicycle Cops standing there with about 6 x 20 somethings in a line fishing out Ā£100 fines for not wearing masks on the bus.
Bus stops. 2 more nicked.
Thatāll teach the little fvckers
Had someone try to take the piss today.
I asked my boss what I should tell them. Boss replies āgive them directions to fuckā, before adding āso they know how to get thereā.
This is probably one of the many reasons I havenāt been sacked yet.

I like that a lot. I am going to use it when the situation is appropriate. Iām sure by 10.00am today it will have been used at least once.

This has got me thinking about some other workplace narratives from the past that are probably deemed inappropriate now.
I worked for an excellent Boss once who, whilst in a meeting and getting increasingly fed up with the HR rep wanting new operational procedures to be āsoldā to the staff was met with a firm āIām not selling, iām fucking tellingā which i found nice.
Another old Boss had two ink stamps, one with āCOMPLETE FUCKING BOLLOCKSā on it and another with āDFK. DFCā on it. I wondered what this meant and asked him - it stood for āDonāt fucking know. Donāt fucking care!ā Apparently he got it from his wife, who was a Nurse and they used this acronym on some patients records. I think he got reprimanded at some point.
Anyone else got some good ones - there must be loads of better ones out there.

This was a team photo from Christmas 1976, shortly before such calendars were banned from the office wallā¦

Ah thatās Arthurā¦passed away a couple of months ago in his late '80sā¦a keen skier in his day, nice chap.
We had those calendars on site office walls up until the late 90ās. Plant and materials suppliers used to spin them out as regular as clockwork. More regular and reliable than the materials they would supply as it happens.
Love the office smoking too. So out of order by todays standards. And the sexual harassment forms being kept in the bottom drawer of the filing cabinet!

Thereās an older guy in that picture who had a very well known reputation for sexual harassment. He was not well liked and was my boss on two separate occasionsā¦we didnāt get on. Thatās why heās stood a long way from me.
He would never have survived in a modern office and rightly so, a real sleaze bag.
An old school mate of Mrs P_F & her BFF is over from UK.
So they are road tripping tomorrow at the crack of dawn to have a girly day & bbq & vodka.
Leaving me home alone for 36 hours.
Test Match, some catch up bingeing and brilliantly 50% discount promo on Fillet Steak & Cotes du Rhone at Lidl today.
Get in!
Obviously in normal circumstances Iād be hitting the Town but until end of month not even enough in the back of the sofa for a bus ticket!
