anyway when i was saying to nicole yesterday 'ah he is really sick, you know how he was having an obnoxious conversation on the phone in the office (in the middle of all the other female staff) and asking his friend what flavour lip gloss the girls had on their nipples the other night... to which she replied WHAT? and i realised the trouble i was having sharing my stories properly.
ah just you wait when i get home im going to drop so many inappropriate/bizarre work stories without even realising you don't know what i'm on about...i imagine.
ok so here is a quick and snappy list of things happening in my life at the moment
- our office phone has been cut off since my boss wont pay his bill, he is complaining and 'sticking it to the man' unsuccessfully - we just look stupidly unproffesional and i dont think the phone company minds too much. oh he has also been threatening to sue them. makes for entertaining listening when im trying to work, my boss describing all the lawsuits coming their way to someone who clearly has no idea who he is or why he is yelling.
- for the upcoming issue we're writing a food feature on food at touristy venues so tomorrow and monday we're off to the themeparks to try everything and then spew it back up on the rides. woo hoo!
- mum is coming to visit on friday morning, yasmine is sleeping over thursday night and i expect we will be in no state to greet her let alone go to work.
- i threw a tanty at work today cause sneaky yasmine wouldnt come with me to an indian restuarant for the restaurant reviews section of the magazine. we have to do 12 an issue so time is a stretch but schemer over there somehow always manages to convince me to come with her but then is always to busy to come on mine. oh well, i have revenge planned, on friday when we're feeling terrible she has an appointment at a thai restuarant with a very very enthusastic pr girl. she thinks i will come but i will leave her high and dry. well that is the plan, chances are i will be dying to get out of the office and jump at the chance to devour pad thai. mmmmmm
- two down. im not actually sure if this was on here or not already but my boss has a nasty streak (hadn't noticed?) anyway he is a massive bully and always finds out what to use to hurt you... naturally i'm five steps ahead when it comes to psycho babble and ive taken to arguing with him. he actually doesn't seem to mind. i think he quite enjoys it actually. anyway yasmine is onto it now but a few weeks ago he caught her unawares early on a monday morning sitting her down to an hour chat about all her personal flaws. aside from informing her that she will never get a job in belgium due to the recession and helping her by telling her that while she is working at 60% if she wants any chance at success in her chosen field she will have to work $200 he also said that had he hired her she would be fired by now. thanks. anyway that's sorted now, she is fully on top of everything so that he cant fault her again...
it was kony's turn today. not sure exactly what he said but it was something about her being in the wrong major and how she doesn't have the capacity... something like that. the poor girl has only done one year at uni and yet he's using her to create ads for company's paying him to make and then display their ads... well mr boss isn't very articulate and tells kony bizarre and vague ideas he has for the add. she works like a crazy person (well at least more than me) and then surprise surprise she has missed the point and it doesn't match the idea in his head.
unlike yasmine she isnt being assessed and doesnt have to be here. like me? oh well, i see the light at the end of the tunnel, 17 more work days. woo. but i hope she doesn't leave, she is really fun.
-oh i got to drive dads car the other night, only like 10ks but still it was stressful as. the trafic here is hard to predict. people dont indicate and just nose-in infront of you... really ahve to pay attention. ah well. done and done. it was pretty fun.
oh whoops, this was meant to be a list.
anyway, i've gotten back into tv in a pretty big way (for me anyway) saw gossip girl finale tonight - teary eyes at the end. tragic i know. cant wait for australias next top model tomorrow night oh and spooks. that vampire show -true blood is terrible but such an easy one to watch. oh and the kids movies haha. wow i should stop before you all realise how uncool i am.
i think its time for my detective novel now. night x
