Thursday - Chirpy cockney geezer

It was time to feedback Anne's comments on the timesheets. Difficult to do when no-one really knew what her issue was. All we understood was that she didn't want the information we provided even though it was what she'd originally asked for. But that was the way of Anne - a menopausal dinosaur of a woman - bending the world so that it fit her interpretation of it.

Yez has a new temp in his team, Dave, and like Emma before him, he spends all of his time in our pod. Not scratching around for work but sniffing around Jo, which has really put Dan's nose out of joint. The temp is from Harrow and he seems to be a real-live caricature of a chirpy, cockney geezer.

"He calls me the 'company man', Dan the 'Monkeyboy' and Jo, 'Tiger'. When we take offence he then brazenly insists that its all 'just a bit of ban'urr' losing his T's at some point around the M25 .

We just call him the git in return. Which he seems to take personally.
