Working from home is the bollocks! Wee seat out the back when it’s warm at lunchtime followed by a nap and a chilled lager in the pm….magic.
The Covid19 WFH Thread
5 days later
Fuck me, I’ve had the worst WFH morning of all-time. I thought I had this deadline for Tuesday for a really big piece of work, but something was nagging at me during the night and just double-checked at 6am - it was for midday today. I’ve never worked so hard and been as stressed as this morning - having to get a document completed, designed, proof read and amended, then perfect bound and then biked over whilst working remotely has been nothing short of horrific. I really could do with a stiff drink.
Along_the_Wire sounds horrific bud. I’ve been in situations like that a few times. That moment when you finally realise why you can’t sleep. Lol. Literally your subconscious screaming at you ‘you daft cunt! Its for tomorrow!’
Worst is when you leave the office, have a couple after work, get stuck into the train beers and then wake up about an hour before work and have to do your ‘homework’ on the commute.
What are you banging on about Dave you daft idiot?
Look at all these plebs and their “work”. I make decisions and pilot the ship, I don’t scrub the deck FFS.
You must have the weight of the world on your shoulders, HopHead.
Working on the commute screams absolute looser to me.
Eddie, that’s twice you’ve tried to get a rise out of dave and he’s completely blanked you both times, buddy.
Is hophead bill gates in real life?
He hasn’t got either the bants or the minerals to come back to me Si.
Smalls is in a bit of a rut at the moment.
Best to just let him keep posting, he’ll find his feet eventually.
If someone is having to work on their commute as they’ve been out all night ledging the bants then fair fucking play!
Along_the_Wire i totally understand. it’s going to be a humid 27 degrees here today and i have to decide if i should wear shorts to go see a german shepherd who likes to bite people. i’ve decided that risking some skin is worth it, i’d rather sweat less.
Smallman is a FAIL carrier.
HopHead I was working on an NDA’d RFP
At an old company I’d had a gargantuan weekend and went into work properly struggling.
As soon as I walk through the door on the Monday, the MD asked me about where we were at with an opportunity.
I said we’d just need to sign the mdma and then they were going to send us the brief.
He said “we just need to sign the what?”
I said “NDA” hoping I’d got away with it and he said “I heard you the first time.”
Reg.
I’ve only ever had one major reg at work. After a legendary long weekend in London, I flew back home (after a mad dash to pack up at the hotel because we were late checking out and arriving at Heathrow completely fucked from an afterparty at a friend’s flat) and had to go straight into work, clothes rumpled, eyes red and half closed, probably smelling of vodka, since vodka snorting was an activity at that particular afterparty 
.
Thankfully, at the time, I had a boss that also likes to “have a good time” and she took pity on me. It was the worst workday.
Forgot about snorting vodka.
Snorting pills for heroes
Millsy we’ve all been there.
Millsy Snorting pills for heroes
It doesn’t half burn though! You instantly think “I shouldn’t have done that…”
Its 5am. How can I make this buzz last a teensy bit longer? Only one thing for it….
The most efficient and cost effective way to get 4 / 5 of you hammered at the end of the night when there’s nothing else left
Millsy LOL. The logic is immense.
Wife has been told to WFH till January… a good thing.
rhouses How is that a good thing? She’ll be around the whole time.
Along_the_Wire Just in time for Normal People Season 2! hahaha. I enjoy her company, it’s been 10 years and we don’t hate each other yet. Pressure for a mini me is piling on though.
