    Someone at work seriously bothered me today, on a screen which presents 24/7, even during client meetings on evenings and mornings, he decided a great idea would be to turn it off at 5pm and have it turn back on the following morning at 9am. I was like that makes zero sense, change it back and he literally kicked off, called me dumb, said I was a f*ing pri*k, the whole lot. A guy with I work with daily, and the worst part, he's levels below me. In the moment I seriously could have punched him so hard, like the temptation oh my god, but I just calmly walked back to my desk lol. Then he started walking around talking to people about me, with me sitting meters away. I've deleted his number from my phone want nothing to do with him... So a bit more drama in my day.

    Morning camz,


    Another dramatic day I see! :)
    What say does this bloke have in the set-up of the screen? Seems odd that something dramatic blew up over something so little! Let it go! Irritating yes - but not worth building up steam over! Just keep thinking about your move to the States! :)

    Thanks Nat, he's an idiot and I think if I'm honest he's got a bit of anger against me as I used to be quite nasty to him around a year or two back when he first joined. Never liked the guy and I used to make it quite clear, I think back then he didn't dare say much to me. He does my head in so I'm sure I came across quite nasty, but honestly once again he has come up with a dumb idea, it like slowly grates on me. I think I will get to do his evaluation for Quarter 1 before I leave, so I will get the last laugh.

    Anyway, I'm made up with cold and woke up with a stye on the inside of my eye lid which is driving me beyond crazy. I've spent too much in some categories this month which I feel bad about also.

    Just going to put "karma" out there!


    Sorry you are under the weather - my OH has been poorly on and off since xmas (my patience is starting to wear a little thin to be honest!) Dose yourself up and don't forget you 'have' to feed a cold (any excuse right!?) I always favour a really hot bath too! Haven't had a sty in years, but I do remember trying the 'touch it with a diamond' theory and it did go away - which I am sure it would have done anyway!! lol
    As for the overspending - don't worry too much - you can't change what is done! The fact you are aware you have overspent is good! Learn from it!!

    Just checked my laptop and the guy had included me in an email sent out with a bunch of errors in the document attached. I've replied back in such a underhanded way, like not said anything that anyone could say is wrong, but been pure condescending lol. I was like "At this stage in your career I would not expect to see these errors, you are not where you need to be. Fix this tonight and let me know when it is resolved. In future check documents before sending them as these basic errors are becoming a pattern." LOL. I don't understand why anyone would make me into an enemy, I certainly wouldn't. He called me pr*ck so imma be one.

    I'm going to start the 333 challenge this weekend... Hoping to break my clothing habit! I also need a good clear out.

    Happy weekend all.

    On a brighter note not eating is virtually no spend for me. Spent zero yesterday... all my money goes on food literally.

    Don't do it!!! Life is too short not to eat! And...if you are under the weather you should be feeding your cold! :) But at least you have saved some money in your food budget!

    I’ve got tonsillitis today haven’t I, meh. Sat in the gp currently, you have to call for an assessment, where they decide if you are ill enough to enter the gp. Once in you see triage who then passes you to a nurse who then passes you onto a gp. Net result is approx 3 hours of waiting around.

    IF I DONT GET ANTIBIOTICS SOMEONE IS GETTING KILLED :)
