So I don't know if I've got two days left in this job or seven... The way people are talking it's two but I was certain the switchover wasn't meant to happen until the start of August. Hmmm. I've been aiming to have everything done by the end of this week and just have the niggly things to deal with next week so I'm more or less okay, but it does mean I'm building up the flexi again - starting at 8 and leaving at 6. And I wonder why I get so ill? Hmmm.

Anyways, better get back to cataloguing Israeli Slavonic journals. Joy.

If it would be better for you to wait until August it would be silly for them to move you next week:)

just had a *chat* with Patsy - it'll be the middle of next week. Because that makes sense....

Hmm, sounds like she may live in a scarier world than me!*g*

Fair enough:)

(According to my boss there is a place called 'Beckland', and just being on the outskirts can be terrifying! Huh, the check!)

LOL! And what's it like in Beckland then?
[identity profile] acrazywench.livejournal.com on July 22nd, 2004 09:23 am (UTC)
Well I like it:)

(I'm sure you'll see it come October time - I'll be off the best behaviour I was on at Fusion by then and will be randomly random!*weg*)

LOL! so long as we can convince Sean that us BtVS and AtS fans can be well-behaved whilst being random...

*g*

I'm sure we can:)

(I think it may well have been shades of Beckland randomness which led to Brody Hutzler asking me in the signing session, in the nicest possible way of course, if I was drunk! He looked a bit worried when I explained that that was my normal self!)

ROFLMAO!!!

Beckland is a *special* place, just keep telling yourself that!

So your boss didn't mess with the plans to keep you in a job you don't like? That's good.

Have fun catolging.

Nope, not yet anyway! Yay!

I'm on my own in this department now - no one else stayed past 5 o'clock. I just catalogued this silly journal called "Khomer" (it's in cyrillic) and I was stamping the covers, not really paying attention to them when I got to issue 5. Full frontal nudity. I'm not kidding. Really. I want to know what the hell this journal is!!!! http://eleanor.lib.gla.ac.uk/record=b2188857 is the record I just downloaded and altered. Doesn't give any indication as to why there would be full-frontal nudity on issue 5 does it?

that wasn't the worst of it - I didn't actually look all that closely and hey, it was in Russian which I can't read all that well, but the pciture was either a hermaphrodite or the picture was severly doctored - apparently female with male 'bits'. Not something I partucalrly want to be seeing again any time soon...
