Some couldn't make it,so it was rearrange for Wednesday. This didn't work either, so Friday ended up being the 'Day'.<br /><br />On Friday we were all there and my boss started the meeting by saying he'd called the meeting so we could decide when we should hold our weekly meetings!<br /><br />My boss was a young university graduate trying hard to show his boss that he had everything under control ... but we still felt like<br />disembowelling him!Symdaddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08953255546935904450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8679304203742128093.post-68888457131084150552010-12-23T06:29:41.889-05:002010-12-23T06:29:41.889-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Symdaddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08953255546935904450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8679304203742128093.post-62961597445727920502010-12-23T04:27:44.234-05:002010-12-23T04:27:44.234-05:00Sooo frustrating especially when it takes so much ...Sooo frustrating especially when it takes so much organisation.
