Well, the day is not going quite as well as I would like – I’ve been b*ll*cked about the format of the accounts, which is – on one hand – entirely reasonable, and on another, entirely not my fault. I mean, you put a Tax Account in the category ‘Other Taxes’, when it should have been in ‘Total Taxes’, at 7pm when you’ve been in since 6-40am, & have spent the day alternatively buying houses or being harangued because of a system error, or opening crucial account combinations & you’re exhausted & barely coherent. I concede that I should have put it in the correct location, but at the same time, there’s only so many things that I can cope with and I’m doing the job of 3 or 4 people as it is, and frankly having a go at me is not professional, really.
Still & all, the day is progressing adequately well; the meeting this morning went ok, the problems that were raised in the above paragraph were sorted almost immediately & the bulk of the tasks that I’ve got to do seem to be nearing completion fairly smoothly. I suspect that tonight should be an earlier finish than yesterdays 9-20pm debacle, but at the same time I’m not prepared to put any money on it as, at 5pm, things tend to ‘just go insane’ here.
On the subject of late nights, last night, after I got home, I got a call from C who convinced me to go to a Mexican restaurant, along with the rest of the ha/sh-house-harriers (her running group). If felt very strange to walk into my house & take my jacket off after a very long day, only to put my jacket back on & go back out again 2 minutes later for a meal. Still, after the initial surprise it was very enjoyable.
Right then. Back to being blamed, I guess.
