I have just got home from work. I also expect to have to work a few hours on Saturday morning as well.

My new colleague is away this week and I have been given no help. When I go away the week after next they will have someone from Bristol over to cover. Mmmmm!!!

To pile things up, I had a half day on Tuesday for a Plot meeting. As I approached the motorway junction for work I had a blow out. So from Tuesday to this morning I have had to commute via train, as my tyres had to be ordered in. Doesn't sound arduous does it? But it costs twice as much as using the car and takes longer; is overcrowded - but not by London standards - and has been very noisy.

This morning the train was late. This may not sound unusual, or very inconvenient, but our station is only served by one, or maybe two trains an hour, so there is no alternative.

I'm looking forward to our mini break in London in 2 weeks. I'll not have to worry about keeping up with work and don't want to. Then I know that Christmas is just around the corner, a few more days off then.

What I have come to realise is that my bosses have no idea how much work I do, or the effort I put in. Maybe they'll listen when I shout at them when I get back from London.
