Back in the smoke…
Travelling to London with my team from work tomorrow for a slap-up binge at Mrs. Miggin’s pie shoppe. Well…ok..not really ! We’re off to London for our Head office team Xmas lunch with a number of the high-heid yins from Lahndahn tahn mate…innit etc. Early early collection by taxi chez Broon before a a quick flight into City airport and thence to the Bank’s HQ in the City.
I think I’ve a couple of meetings before lunch *sigh* and will no doubt be attempting to damp down the flames rising around us following some new and contentious changes I released into our application yesterday morning…still if it was easy everyone would be doing this cr@p !
On a lighter note this afternoon I applied for a new job ! Bit of a departure for me as it’s not directly hands-on coding. It’s what’s called in our organisation a "business partner" (please feel free to visualise David Brent doing the universal sign language for "double quotes" and then gag !). It looks rather an interesting challenge working in HR as a focal point for all things web/intranet/internet related…I’m fine on the facing off to the business side of things, and technical…well…I’m ok ! Slight gap in the skillset is the old HR experience.
Still…have taken the plunge and we’ll have to wait and see whether my other abilities offset this shortcoming ?
[#Newsflash# me old mate and his bruvver me and the missus spent years trekking all over Europe 'boarding together are going to be out and about a looking for trouble (ie me !) tomorrow night after work. Get f#ckin' in - haven't seen the brothers' Harris in bloody years ?!??!? This is shaping up to be a DAMN good Holiday season ! ]
