Monday again...

and back to work we go. Job? The usual, not too bad but people making my life harder but not doing their work properly is really starting to get to me! What should take me a day or two can turn into a week or more. The thought process must go something like this:

Brain: Hrmmm, i can't quite remember what i'm supposed to do here
..........
Brain: I don't want to look like i'm an idiot, ive been told how to do this quite a few time's...
..........
Brain: (!) I'll just take a stab in the dark rather than asking a question or looking back through my emails which contains the correct process. If it's wrong someone else will fix up my mistake and if i get questioned i'll deny ever being told how to do it correctly.

Time saved: 10-20 seconds
Time added to my job: 10-20 minutes

Thankfully there are some great employees here who do take pride in their work, if they were all like the above i would have left a long time a go!

Broken promises

Not that any one reads my shit, but i did promise to update much more often many many months ago - turned out well!

Me? Still pissed off, but happy. Confusing? Of course.

Caffeine: Gave it up for a few months, had horrible headaches but they went away, i can now have a little if i am feeling tired without the withdrawal symptoms the next day - which is a relief!

Music: Current artist who is taking up 95% of my listening time - Nine Inch Nails. Don't know how I have ignored them for so long! I've had a half on, half off, relationship with them prior to this current stage, liked a few of the songs, enjoyed The Downward Spiral, but never been obsessed. This has now changed.

How it happened? I was watching some body modification program on Bio (i think?) and this chick had a NIN / SIN logo tattoo. Hadn't listened to them for a while, never really listened to the song Sin *slaps head* - so gave it a go. Took a good few listens but then it hit me, Trent is one bloody talented guy! Now working my way through the back catalogue and having a ball.

Gaming: GTA4. Forgot to cancel one of my asian pre-orders so now i have two copies, the AUS censored edition and the UK uncensored (was supposed to be US but they sent the wrong one through...). For the big uproar this caused on forums, the censored content is nothing more than you would see in a MA movie (sort of...), just hookers with options! Either way the game is excellent and if you don't own a copy go get one now!

Buses: Still shit, but no suprise there.

People: Still don't like the majority of the people in the city, the one's that won't stop walking at a pedestrian crossing (busy road so the pedestrians need to stop at some time or the car's will never get to go...) are the same ones, that when in their cars, will beep at the pedestrians for not stopping! Hypocritical bastards, no doubt they think they're good upstanding citizens, probably christians - thats for a later date ;)
