work stuff - again!  
I just had a "getting to know you one on one meeting" with the new department head.

I like her, a lot.

She's been in the place a week and she's already identified every single problem with this place. Well, every problem I have with the place anyway!

I can almost forgive her "my door's always open" line, and the reason I have a problem with that is because of Pratchett...

You... like your boss???

Something has gone fundamentally wrong with the universe.

Were Glasgow University Library's crack Uberbitch Recruitment Squad having a bad day?

You do realise that's almost accusing Sho of being an uberbitch, don't you Sam?

and remind me on the Pratchett ref Sho, my minds a complete blank today (okay, most days)

LOL!!!

Hey, when I'm driving I'm a bitch so I can cope with that....

The Pratchett ref, I was racking my brains trying to remember the book and I can't. I do now it's one of the early Archchancellor Ridcully ones - there's a footnote about the kind of managers who say "my door's always open"...

in fact, I'm lying. It's "Eric" - about the demon lord of hell whose name I can't remember. There may be a similar reference in a Ridcully book though.

Lol, er, yes it did occur to me that it was open to that interpretation. I'm sure Sho knows what I meant though! *g*

I know, my worldview is askew. Something is very, very wrong with this picture!

What's worse is, I burned my left hand on the iron this morning, but there's no mark. On my right hand, however, there's a burn on my index finger that I don't remember getting...

Am I somehow in a mirror world?!

Fingers crossed! Although, I'm still planning on leaving!
