Could be worse Frankie, twice I have gone over to help my step dad clear their garden and both times he has proceeded to cut through the mains wire with the hedge trimmer and short out the whole house, you would have thought he would learn after the 1st time

Upsetting a client. If they could stick to a decision everyone would be a lot happier.

Yelling at BT again as my internet is down again meaning I also have no tv but freeview again! Fault on the line, been told the 12th before its repaired, seriously f***ed off is an understatement

Today I will mostly be doing instructions to barristers for advice or pleadings on people my clients have either killed or badly mashed up.

Trying to sort out our work database which isnt easy as my colleague that has left was halfway through it and the only person trained to do it and now its been passed to me, thrown it at the deep end, but in all honest its more interesting that what I normally do.

Sounds like they really don't want to be there when you turn up this morning, that'll be fun first day back, waiting to see what they've done. |(

You should have texted back they will have a bloody nose if they don't turn up.

What's your policy on sick pay, Bratty? Looks like it needs revisiting to me. Have a look at the 'Bradford Factor'. Tends to motivate staff to stop taking sickies.

We don't pay sick pay mate, we use the Bradford Factor for our bonus system so financially they loose out but It doesn't stop them.
