    Evening all - another day on the wagon

    That's 4 AF for June please Shaggyand 2 SNC please Gien.

    I'm exhausted, I only slept from around 04:30 until 7 this morning - it must be the lack of alcohol. I'm hoping to go to bed soon

    5/29 AFDs. No wine bells, but had a Snicker attack this afternoon after a snotty email from our trainer in reply to mine giving our two teams a time-saving attachment. Her reply was factually wrong and p*ssed me off royally, and even more so because it was copied around the two teams. Four people commiserated and two said that my email had in fact helped them already.

    41 I know that's small stuff compared to your Uncle's stroke, so my apologies and hugs for you xx
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    Sorry to hear that Satchmo - the trainer clearly has inadequacy issues.
    In my line of work we aim to work with staff to get things done efficiently and effectively and so would applaud anything that helps people get their jobs done.

    Perhaps the trainer thinks that putting people over an obstacle course to achieve results is somehow character building.

    Also - ccing people into an e mail which contains criticism of an individual is a major breach of professional etiquette.
    Is she somehow threatened by you?
