First day on the job ...

Well that's torn it - I signed my employment contract this afternoon. I am now officially an employee of British Gas.

The day didn't get off to a fine start though. Awoke at (gulp.. stupid o'clock) 6.45am, felt like shit having only had about two hours sleep. I just couldn't get off to sleep and when I did I kept waking up again thinking it was time to get up!

Ho hum... Daughter didn't want to get out of bed - left the house at 7.30am - plenty of time - due in at the office at 8am ... no worries we'll make it .... BOLLOCKS!!!!
We got stuck in traffic at Scots Green Roundabout (see Andrew Logan's Pegasus at http://www.andrewlogan.com/ )cleared there after a couple of minutes and headed along the Dudley Southern Bypass .... Hmmmm... Anyone heard any news today?? Did you hear about the lorry and the joyriders.... well ... we got stuck in a tail back that lasted for one and a half PIGGIN hours .... I had to walk for nearly a mile as the police were diverting traffic.
Remember I said that I was supposed to be at work for 8am - I got there at 9.bloody 15am . I was a wreck in the car.. moaning and groaning and tearing at my hair.. I seriously thought 'that's it I've lost me job on me first day' ... I was swearing and cussing and not in the best of frames of mind.
Especially as I had to walk through the scene of the accident. It was not pleasant.
I shall probably have nightmares tonight.

But On A Lighter Note!! :?))

I had a really good day at work - all the other trainees are as barking mad as me - oh and my boss was stuck behind me in the traffic jam!!

Oh well in case of further t'do tomorrow - we are getting up 15 minutes earlier and will be leaving 15 minutes earlier.

Oh arse!

Right that's me off to me hot water bottles and a book and hopefully some sleep!
Night all x
