It hasn’t been a great week for me and it looks like I’m losing my closest work colleague to another department soon. You have no idea how much this upsets me because we’ve been working closely for 2 years now and we kinda bolster each other up when times get rough so I’m going to be on my own. They are already looking for a replacement for her but it looks like they are bringing someone in from the outside which has also made me furious. We have two girls in the department who are just waiting for a stab at promotion and this step denies them the chance while heaping more work on me as we train a newbie. It looks like the new start is going to be male, so there goes the girlie talk.

There have also been a couple of incidents with management that have placed me in an awkward situation (something that never should have happened) and typically it happens when my boss is on holiday. I’ve emailed her the complete story and made her aware in no uncertain terms how much I resented being stuck in the middle of management quarrels. As far as I’m concerned, they can sort it all out between themselves and leave me out of it because it isn’t even part of my job in the first place. I’ve said it all along, my workplace would be a lot better if they got rid of the piss poor managers and gave themselves a good shake.

I don’t know if it was down to a need to escape or what but I suddenly started writing again last weekend. I’d more or less made a decision not to write again since I really don’t have the time but I just felt this overwhelming urge to start typing. Sounds a bit more dramatic than it really was! LOL! Although, I find it strange feeling the desire to write for a long dead fandom when I love so many new series.

Speaking of TV, I am also sorely disappointed in the way Prison Break ended. While I appreciate why the writers felt it was necessary, I really don’t think it was and I know there are many, many people out there who agree with me. I totally fell in love with PB when it first began but I’ve struggled hard with this last season and I’m afraid PB and I parted company before the end played out. Not only is it cruel to undermine the very foundations of the show, it’s down right insulting to loyal viewers. I’m afraid S4 just never happened as far as my viewing is concerned.

Anyway, not much else has happened and I get tired of constantly moaning about work, hence the lack of updates. Heading off to see a Nickelback concert in Glasgow tonight which I’m in two minds about. I enjoyed their set when they supported Bon Jovi in 2006 but I’m not a huge fan of theirs. My bro really wanted to go so I caved.
