Irritatingly not really, as they've a manager off sick his assistant who would have covered my breaks can't so I've been getting my tea breaks and lunch at strange times when they've got other staff free so I barely see anyone on my breaks now. Hopefully my work will have spoken for itself despite my not being able to get my face 'out there' as well.
As a minor upside I won a comp on facebook on Monday so am waiting for a Jam wireless speaker to be delivered, so if I am unemployed again next week I can at least go sit in the garden with music if it's sunny.

That's rather unlucky. You probably need to get a rabbit's foot...scubaangel wrote: »Hopefully my work will have spoken for itself despite my not being able to get my face 'out there' as well.

That would be rather unlucky for the rabbit though!
Well the luck seems to have been my way, one of the girls came down to cover for me and asked if I knew when my last day was yet, when I said likely tomorrow she phoned the Sales Supervisor, when I got back from my break I was ordered to call him.
I've been asked to work next week too, so thats a few more pennies in to the pot. It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.

Annoyingly got home from work this evening at about 1630 and missed the postie trying to deliver my parcel by a few minutes so am going to try to pick it up tomorrow morning.
Swimming was nice and quiet tonight, only about 7 people in the unlaned half of the pool, got 60 lengths (1.5km) done in around 40 minutes, next week I really need to take myself to Salford to start the open water swimming.It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.
