Working notice with no work to do but still going into the office

k it, i'm going home to wire in my new home cinemak off home now and nothing will happen, I only come into the office today as my home is being redecorated.I have so far tried:
- Turning up increasingly late each day
- Increasingly Random sick days
- Calling out the level of work as it is (st)
- Watching whatsapp videos from friends
- Calling the australian talking clock, repeatedly
I'm always honest with clients when it comes to work quality and here it seems I have been the first representative of my soon to be shortest ever engagement. Trouble is the client loves this, so not matter what I do, they insist my current gig do whatever to keep me. Today was a 10:15 start, wearing clothes not fit for the workplace and yet still I am here. Off home now though

We start off this Thursday morning on a rather cloudy note with a risk of a few showers around...
FYI Alex - it's been lashing it down all bloody morning. And it still doesn't show any sign of easing. All I want is a break of an hour or so from the rain so I can get out for a bike ride or a run without needing SCUBA gear. Is the weather radar even switched on today? I'm not even talking about medium, or long range forecasts. This was "today's weather" presented to me only a few hours before the event. Grrr!Cliftonite said:
Wow. One person saying something is enough to publish a whole article?
I bet she only said it to get this attention as well, she's all smug now I'm sure.
There are plenty of places where gender shouldn't matter, but this really isn't one of them is it? But Metro have generated how many clicks for this I wonder, and all the other sites that run the story?

I found that earlier on yesterday when searching for a book title I might or might not have posted. When it didn't find the word "thunderstorms", I search for "firenza", which I know I must have mentioned at least once. Then, as you say, later on it was fine. Reindexing something, maybe, and forgot to put a message on.

Ah delightful - thanks for the link, I'll stick to site: pistonheads.com google searches from now on! The search function has always been quite crap, as far as I remember! [EDIT: oh and bleeding PH smiley formatting!]ETA: https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...

Speaking as a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I can safely and confidently say none of us give a st about what gender Father Christmas/Santa/Saint Nick/whatever-the-fk-you-call-him is.We have far, far more important things to worry about. This is just outrage-manufacturing by certain members of anti-LGBTQ+ people to try and make us, as a community, seem unreasonable and mad. I'm a proper lefty loony and even I don't care about this and I've got plenty of strong and probably slightly bizarre opinions!

Buying things at full price and days later seeing them in a big sale. Especially annoying when retailers do it just before Christmas. Boxing day wouldn't drive me so mental.
I bought some shorts (2XU.com - if people are bothered 
) in a black Friday offer. 30% off. Decent offer I thought, so purchased.2 days later. "Cyber Monday offer" 40% off
With hindsight I was lucky to get anything. no tracking number was sent as promised. It took over a week to turn up (2-3 working days my arse!) My email asking for a tracking number bounced back as "undeliverable" I tweeted and Facebooked messaged them. No reply.
I was going to start a PayPal dispute the next day but it was delivered an hour before I got home!
Wont ever buy from them again.

Packed a small bag so I could carry it onto the plane.
Returning home they stick it in the hold, despite the plane being nowhere near full.
Plane lands late in Bristol, have to wait for the damned bag, miss my bus by two minutes.
Annoying enough, but it's my birthday today.
Happy birthday ! Packed a small bag so I could carry it onto the plane.
