I'm having a fairly laid back Friday, trying to tie up loose ends so I can start afresh on Monday and give a few things my full concentration. Did have a deadline on Monday so started the day thinking it was going to hectic to prepare for the deadline, but at about 10ish this morning the client emailed to say the deadline has been extended for a week. Result.

Nice one floss!
I'm desperately trying to get on top of as much as possible as next week is hectic so won't have chance to do much and I'm so behind on things. Making good progress though.

I love soup, so comforting.
It was yummy, giant couscous, much nicer than regular couscous.

Haha I love this place where I work sometimes, Got new car where I work, sorted insurance out before I left when I come back car registration plates had been changed which I knew was happening but no one had bothered to inform insurance company they been driving round in it for a week without proper insurance, I drove it yesterday then thought about the insurance afterwards, checked it out this morning and hadn't been changed over, All sorted now thankfully, Told the person who had been driving it for the past week all I got was OMG! roll on my 6 weeks off!

I'm not a massive soup fan just have it because it's quick, easy, healthy and cheap lol.

I'm guessing they are very strict with a lot of rules and that's what he means lol, the lady that interviewed me said the MD is really laid back, you can choose your own hours, wear what you want etc. Hoping that's what he means anyway haha! Going to call him back after work and will hopefully find out! xx

Did he mean the office itself or the people who work in the office? Maybe it's just not as "advanced" as the office you will be working in! xx

Seems a bit of an odd thing to warn you about, if he doesn't like the way they work in that office and has to warn people about them then why hasn't he done something about it haha? I guess you will find out soon enough!!! xx

I'd say you may be right about them maybe being more strict than the other divisions. As the parent company I guess they put the policies etc. into place so might be a bit regimented xx

Same here with the politics IDL. Thankfully my boss tries to ensure I don't get swept up in it. Always the men causing the problems too.

Floss problems are usually worse with women I find. It's more b1tchy and people trying to build their little empires. It's like so many think it's acceptable to behave poorly even at a senior level.

Definitely the men here! But then we do have a lot more men than women being part of a construction company. Most of the senior managers and directors are male and they're always b1tching and trying to show how dominating and important they are!! It's like a "my ____ is bigger than your ____" contest sometimes.

Lol, ours is a female dominated organisation. Yeah I guess some men can be bad too. My worst experiences have generally been women.

My new company is to do with construction so it will be a male oriented office, I came from an architects before this job though which is also a lot of males and found that here is much more b1tchy here where there is more women. I do agree that men are worse though! xx

I gave in and had chips at lunchtime. I've been wanting chips on and off all week. Normally I'd hang tight because we'd eat out Friday night and Sunday lunchtime and I'd have something with chips on one or other occasion, but tonight we're eating in because we've been out with the parents in law every night (nowhere with chips), and Sunday we'll be at a silver wedding so it will probably be nibbles.
30th August 2014 was the best birthday ever.
It was the day that I became Mrs. Dixon.
CommentAuthorElinor Claire
Emma I'm sure it will be fine. 2 weeks isn't long if it turns out not to be fun, and it might not be as bad as you expect. If they're strict that's easily managed, you just have to follow instructions to the letter. If you don't like the people you won't have to see them again after two weeks.

We normally eat out on Friday too but I couldn't hold out today. Lunch was very healthy and brekkie was just toast although with lashings of margarine so not healthy and very fattening.
