at the moment it seems like it’s the same person all the time…
last night I could hardly move, my legs are still aching like a b*tch but they are getting better I was even able to give them a little stretch this monring so I am getting a little bit of movement back… Ok so the question is do I go play football tonight or do I just relax again and let my little ol’ legs rest… man I do love to play football, nothing better than kicking that little ball around and thinking it’s that person who annoyed me the most that day… at the moment it seems like it’s the same person all the time…
I have one member of staff and they have decided to get a mediator in to dicuss their issues, all because I decided to call her up on her sick leave and her previous managers never have… well I think it’s not unreasonable to bring up the issue of sick leave if in the last rolling year (15th October to 15th October) she has had around 56 days of sick… I didn’t even give her a formal warning, I just told her to be mindful of it in future as it is a bit much. But she don’t like it that…
I don’t know what she hopes to get out of this mediation thing because I’m only going to tell her the same thing but I’m also going to tell her that according to the staff handbook that now I have made her aware of the issue the next time I have to bring it I will make it more formal.
I tried to do it nicely and she didn’t like it so I’ll do it formally and see how see likes that!! Haha… she has it so easy at this place it’s a joke and I’m going to bring down a whole load of bircks…
But I must thank her though because it is her tht is making me hit the gym hard and play and train at football each week, it’s weird how these things work ain’t it? But I suppose it’s how we deal with the ups and downs that matters most really??
Sorry for vent and if you got this far… cheers for reading…

I’m currently that girl in my office taking all the leave. I figure that I’m entitled to it so I’ll take it when it suits me. I wonder what you would say to me if you called me in your office? Whatever it was I’m sure I’d sweet talk my way out of it and you would have no problem, you just wouldn’t be thinking of me during those workouts though, damn maybe I’d have to have some more attitude so you would be…. I think this girl has you all figured out lol

Well I don’t mind taking leave that is owed, it’s the unexpected sick leave that makes it hard work in the office but it’s all sorted now anyway…
So now I do think about you when I work out…
