Today... has been a day I would just love to forget. Really. Honestly. Can I? Please? I'll be good, I swear. *sigh*
The bad shit from yesterday continued into today - only it was badder and more painful than yesterday. Today is the Ring Stinger** of painful days. Yesterday I got an email from a client - an email that was originally sent to the helpdesk last week when I was not here or on email duty. I remember hearing KG talking about it earlier this week - too bad she didn't actually say she'd done anything about it. Bitch. She hadn't. So I get the angry email yesterday afternoon about 45 minutes beofre the time I was due to leave.
"Where are my certificates!?!"
I am not kidding, three files - 8 different applications for each file, a minimum of 7 certificate applications within each one of those.
Thank whatever good spirits were around me today that they were only spread out over three councils and two different waterboards. Just in case you're confused, I liason with councils and various government authorities in order to chase up missing property certificates that our clients need when buying/selling real estate. To only have to deal with five of them for a major file (multiple applications) is almost a godsend.
And I've just had a wonderful txtmsg* conversation on my mobile phone with SK. He would prefer a curry over having sex with me. Lovely. Joking or not, I don't need to hear that NOW.
*sighs*
Oh, happy birthday to my MUM today... she is 25 years older than me. (I'm 23 now, you do the math, it's rude to ask a lady her age.)
**Ring Stinger - aka Satan's Ring Stinger Chili Sauce a la SK who makes THE best chili sauce.
