I am having a pig of a day
Didn’t sleep well , took ages to get to sleep and then a couple of really weirdo dreams. So when the alarm went at 6 my feet were made of concrete and wouldn’t budge.
Still up I get and trudge into work. Tube is fecked and hoardes of people crowded into sardine tins.
Get into work , sit down , fire up emails ...see some rant from some punter and just about to look into this when phone rings. It is The Brat. The cooker ignition won’t stop going she says. The hot water doesn’t work. I can’t go to school when it’s like this the house will blow up she screams hysterically.
Deep Sigh ...ok I will come home and sort it out.
Back on the tube which is still fecked and takes forever . Crowded , slow and hot.
Get off and get onto bus. Crowded , slow and hot. Some scummy scuzz ball of a girl in front of me is still getting dressed and combs her hair and then sprays feckin deodorant on. The fumes of pit cover up engulf me .
Great.
Get home. The cooker ignition to the gas hob is clicking away madly. The boiler pressure has dropped and there is no ignition light. Takes ages to re-ignite it. Top up the boiler and then check the cooker ignition. Won’t stop clicking away. Try to dismantle it and see what is wrong. Still doesn’t stop. Turn off the electrical supply to the cooker.
Leave the house to come back to work.
Get on bus , crowded, slow and hot. This time, just for a bit of variety, there is a nutter on there. Spouting on about “evil heathens and blasphemous b1tches “ , plus the addition of a screaming baby the whole journey.
Joy
Back on tube – still fecked. Crowded , hot and slow. Girl putting on make up on a juddering train ( surely not a good idea – but hey what do I know! )
Back into work – feeling like groundhog day .
Straight into meeting and then back to computer to see that original whinging punter has now sent a follow up email escalating his complaints
and BM is beating me on Zoomer ( for now
)
