Got told today, that I am moving teams at work. Its not just me, we are all moving round.
I have been ok with it for most of the day - we had our "new team" meeting this morning, and my new manager told us that he hadn't made up his mind where he was going to sit us all.
I wasn't overly bothered, as I presumed that all teams were being moved around and told where to sit (at which desk) however, since the other new teams have had their meetings - it turns out that our team seems to have a control freak as a boss, as all the other managers are just letting their teams choose their seats.
I feel like I'm a 5 year old back at school again.
The more I have thought about it, the more angry I have become. Even more so when it became clear, that my manager (who was previously the training manager) was due to lose his job, and a new post has been created just so that he can stay and has also been given a 7k pay rise to boot.
We now have 4 managers who look after 4.5 staff members each !!!! Talk about overkill.
I shall be having a word tomorrow I think.
Sorry rant over
Looking forward to becoming the 3rd and last Mrs McLauchlan

All you lot saying cannot wait for the weekend, I don't want it to come as it means my annual leave is over. Why I picked to go straight back on nights on Sunday I do not know!
Watched the red arrows last night, we are spoilt here as see them a lot, at least once or twice a year regular. Always a good show though,

Morning all, TGIF! Can't wait for a lie in and a lazy day tomorrow... Sunday we're off to Cardiff to watch Cardiff v QPR, my old boss at Swindon football club is now the head of retail at Cardiff and she's giving us her freebie tickets, apparently she has very good seats (padded and everything) so looking forward to that. We will however be in the Cardiff end so hubby will need to keep a lid on it!!!
I stopped at M0rr1s0ns this morning and got myself a salad bowl and some chicken so I can have a chicken caeser salad for lunch. Got a punnet of strawbs too, yum :-)

Hubby has gone off to work, said he will be back by lunchtime, today is a crazy day in my home town as it's the end of cowes week and there is a big firework display tonight so the amount of people in town increases by a very huge amount.
Got Freddie today, my son's girlfriend said she finishes at 245 but will probably be nearer 5/6pm before they pick him up.

Flossie that lunch sounds brilliant!! I just have a sandwich and yoghurts. Almost picked up a bag of crisps to pad it out a bit but resisted. Wow GF, that’s a bit of a difference. Surely they would want to get him asap... Not sure what cowes week is..

I've got a thing about caeser salad at the mo. I've always loved it but since I had the most amazing one on honeymoon I've become a bit obsessed! By the time I've lathered on my sauce and topped it with loads of croutons though, it's not very healthy... ha.

I know it's a huge time difference. I'm not fussed but when we've got things to do and places to go it gets in the way.
Cowes week is a big sailing event which happens every year. It gets very busy town and ends with a big firework display on Friday night, which brings in a huge amount of Islanders and tourists.

Sounds good fun. Do you go out to watch or stay away?
Flossie I put so much dressing on my salads its ridiculous! Got my mom and dad to get me some balsamic vinegar off their holiday in France. It is so good and so cheap! Hoping to pick that up tonight so that will make my dressings a little healthier as ill make them myself.
I was going to have kievs and a jacket tonight as been craving an oven dinner but its now boiling hot so thinking a pasta or a salad instead. Maybe an orzo with chicken, cured sausage and peppers.

Gave it to my new boss this morning - with both barrels - need less to say, we all had an apology and can now sit where we want to. Victory to us !!!

Hey all- feeling rough today- got a hacking cough :( guess I picked it up from plane.
Dad just called, not only has he paid for villa next year but also just booked flights- he won't accept any money so just going to save it so when we are there I can use it to be for dinner etc.
On another note, has anyone heard from Becky recently? Last I heard her MIl wasn't well as she was on about cancelling wedding, really hope all is ok with her

We go out to watch them, we mingle about by the beer tents first as they have bands playing, then head up to a church yard where we have a brilliant view. Disappointed this year as they were only ten minutes long, usually they are 20-30 minutes long.

Morning. Hope all are well. Not been around much as just so busy and tired. Met mate yesterday and went for afternoon tea at the 4 53@50n5 hotel on park lane and went shopping. We don't normally do cabs around London as we know our way around so much and also used to walking around the city given we both have worked there for years but we were both so tired we actually just grabbed cabs to take us around. Afternoon tea was lovely. I finally got my cross body bag which I have been looking for for ages, taken me such a long time to find the perfect one. Got one finally from 1k 83nn3tt. It's lovely and bonus was only £145.

Shame I didn't find anything else I really wanted. Just wasn't feeling it yesterday, I was in the mood to treat myself but didn't find anything else I loved enough to buy. Tried on a gorgeous pair of shoes but they just weren't right, one foot fitted great, the other was almost like a size too big.
I did get myself my fave chocolates.

Need to clean the en suite today as got no cleaning done yesterday because I was out with my mate.
Thankfully I did laundry and cleaned family bathroom and downstairs loo on Friday night after we got home from dinner.
I've already changed the bed sheets this morning when I got in from church so just last bit of cleaning to sort and I'm done. Just waiting for the bleach to do it's stuff.

Having a real lazy day today - in fact I haven't even got dressed yet. lol
We are going out to the British Legion later for our monthly meeting, so will be having a Spag bol for tea, then a quick shower and change. Will hopefully be back home for about 10, so I can get an early night.
Have spent all my time this weekend trying to cheer up the OH. He found out on Friday, that he didn't get the job he went for. It doesn't make much difference as we are no worse off than we were before, as he still has a job, its just that the £8k per year pay rise would have come in really handy.

Awww Maxine, all things happen for a reason so it means he's had a lucky escape or something better is around the corner.
I feel like going out tonight. Not in the mood to cook. Really shouldn't go out as we went out Friday night for dinner and then I was out tomorrow for afternoon tea then had a saveloy and chips for dinner when I got home from the chippy and hubby had pizza from D0m1n035. Would be really bad if I then went out for dinner tomorrow.

Ooo - I haven't had a chippy tea or a pizza for ages.
Think I might treat us next weekend as its pay day. Tough decision though - pizza or chippy.
I'm sure it will all work itself out, and, as I said, we aren't any worse off than we were before he went for the interview. He's just such hard work when he gets on a downer.

We too had pizza for dinner last night! It was buy one get 1 free so we still have the rest left for t tonight! Since we've been back from holiday have continued to eat rubbish- been shopping and stocked up on fruit and veg so from tomorrow can start eating healthy again!
CommentAuthorInDreamland
Both Maxine. Pizza with chippy chips. Treat yourself lol!
Hopefully he'll pick up soon Maxine.
Michelle - we have lots of fruit and veg in the house as 0c@d0 delivered this morning so we're pretty much back to normal now for this week with food in the house but I'm just not in the mood to cook.
So unhealthy though to keep eating out or buying takeaways.
