in the office working on a sunday

1 Nov 2009

I often work on a Sunday, I find get get 3 to 4 hours work done on a Sunday that would have taken all day on a weekeday, because the phone keeps ringing.
Bruice, take you own grub with you, even if you have to stop at a corner shop and buy a sandwich or similar or make you own....
Don't you just hate it, you take a pint of milk & biscuits into work, come in on Monday moring and find the weekend staff have drunk it and eaten off your bisciuts!! biggrin

:shock:

Actually, I'm also working today.. but from home. I find Sunday afternoons are a really productive time for me for some reason and my creativity is at its best. The fact that it's blowing a gale and dumping rain here in the northeast right now also means it makes even even less sense to go anywhere at all.
Beef or chicken roast brucie? kiss

I've been having a huge clearout (apart from the break to go and buy body lotion lol

) and yep, Sunday has thus far been fairly productive. :thumbup:

I used to take milk to work for my coffees but some bastard kept nicking it. I don't take it any more. Mainly cos if I ever caught the theiving arse-wipe red-handed I was likely to end up on an assault charge for throwing them off the balcony into the foyer below.
Stealing food/drink from your workmates (!) is a hanging offence with NO mitigating factors whatsoever in my book.
And not just cos it's you Brucie - the above applies to anyone.

Been working this morning, Sunday is a good day to work on in a more relaxed sort of way that the normal formal week day work.

Brucie if you got into work on Monday... How would you feel if someone had gone through the draws in your desk and taken your property??..

Well this is Bruce we are talking about...everything he says is always for effect...probably the reason he started this thread!

ffs Brucie. You paint this wretched picture of yourself, on a site where trust is all important, and then you call other people naive!

completely agree lp. if i were to get into work on monday and find my things had been gone through/stollen i'd put in a formal complaint. if brucie was my boss i'd expect a foral written appology as well as one infront of all staff.
whips
whips whilst you are absolutely correct, it is quiet a naive approach.
anyway im home now and managed to amend 3 documents and dictate a report that would take me 2 days to do with phones ringing and all the other usual distractions (footy banter) so it was well worth it. also now not anxious about having to do it tomorrow so may get the chance to have some fun tomorrow afternoon :-)
If you chatter on instead of working I can see why you would have to go into work out of hours. Frankly I'd rather do my job while I'm paid to and play in my own time. biggrin

Amend 3 and dictate 1? In 2 days? You may want to move your desk away from your colleagues a bit. I'm way out of your league in writing reports. :D

i lock my draw...
and some of the best confidential information i have obtained over the years has been from snooping through peoples' draws. unbelievable what people leave in unlocked draws!
all is fair in love and war.
the milk is bought by the firm for everyone.
Ok Brucie .as you say all's fair in love and would you say it is fair for me to smack you in the mouth for going through my draws,if i were to ever work in the same office.

trust. i am very trustworthy. if i give you my word i dont break it. if you tell me something in confidence i dont repeat it.
other people on this site i have learnt from experience are happy to breach a confidence when the mood takes them.
yes it is naive to think that everyone plays fair. that is why i am guarded about my identity. the world is full of crashing bores and bunny boilers.
and there is a difference between my personal life which this place forms part of and the rat race at work. survival in the workplace is not a university course on ethics, its dog eat dog.

No it isn't. It may be in SOME workplaces. It may be with SOME people. But it isn't in all by any means. I doubt it is even in the majority. But then it's probably got far more to do with the people involved.
You do know that work is just what you do to get paid, right? That life is what happens outside of work?

Donâ€™t have underhanded â€˜popsâ€™ at me please if you canâ€™t even be consistent yourself. I hope to god youâ€™re better at getting your story straight in your legal world than you are on here confused

OK... this is all getting a bit boring now. As the original post has been lost in the mists I've locked it to stop further degeneration. If anyone objects, I'll be around for another half hour or so to listen to your reasons why it should be allowed to continue, or you can PM another mod if I'm not.
