I long for the day...
« on: August 31, 2007, 05:58:42 PM »
When I can bid goodbye to my customers / clients. This last week has been testing to say the least.  evil:

No.1 who left me with a financial 'cold', not too serious but annoying nonetheless, is now, allegedly the subject of an internet 'hue 'n' cry'   scared2: regarding inappropriate behaviour, fraudulent qualifications, unethical practice and god knows what else. Thankfully none involving my good self but worrying nevertheless.

No.2 who decides to bugger off to Portugal to play a few rounds of golf leaving me to make sense of the indecipherable, illuminate the unimaginable and illustrate the impossible  evil:

No.3 who, with each phone call and email, manages through some arcane art to reveal an increasing incompetence in everything he and his company are involved with. Each communication forces me to step back one position and question whether they really know what they are doing  evil:  evil:
I predict that by the end of next week we will be discussing the meaning of elementary English words ::)

Ah, it's the end of August, the end of the summer, perhaps the silly season is over. Can we all kneel in prayer?  confused:

Given the current state of my back I doubt my ability to get up again should I get down on my knees.
Would simply bowing my head be OK?

Other than occupying the Bishopric of Southwark I don't know what Pastis does to earn a crust ~ but I am willing to feel sympathy for anyone who has to deal with "Clients" and "Customers". Fortunately my days of that are over ~ I now have only the State to combat.
