Anyone else keeping the country running?

[Mad Cyril]

My office is empty and those that did turn up this morning are out boozing it up in Canary Wharf.

Is anyone else keeping the country running?

 

[Uncle Leo]

I'm still flying the flag. Early finish today though (3pm) but back in on Boxing Day.

 

[DTS]

I am with you Cyril....

I am the only person in my office and I am here till 5.30pm. Had 2 calls all day - Who in their right mind whats to arrnage a mortgage today......

 

[Interpol Shrimper]

Me, as reported elsewhere!
Bloody woman, where is she?

 

[Interpol Shrimper]

To relieve the boredom.....

Some quality postings on here, although not as superb as the Kingston pigeons one that SD found a week or so back!

Still here but not for long, a great way to recover from a heavy night, as the office is practically empty and the phone has not rung so i am passing the time reading msgboards and sending occasional emails cc-ing the boss.

Didn't know Scrooge Global Inc had offices in Bournemouth

 

[Wessex Blue]

They've just changed their name to large US Investment Bank Inc. Still the same skinflint, mean spirited tosspots though....!

I managed to review the documents in time, but the other side didn't manage to remedy the mistakes I pointed out, so none of the deals could go through. Don't think I'll be getting a Christmas card next year from the other side!

Here in out dept at our wonderful law firm, sue grabbit & run someone has to be in the office until 8pm!!!!

Luckily not me but I have to be at my desk until 5!

Worse thing is we can see all the lawyers in the pub opposite who we are here to support. Out of the other window we can see the empty building we are supporting with all the lights off!!!! Agh!

 

[Hong Kong Blue]

Are you complaining about being paid to not do any work?

 

[DTS]

To be honest I'd quite happilyy take the knock to my wages to be in the pub right now with lots of young trainee lawyers getting sloshed on their bonuses!!!!

I'm still here. Why does the Football Industry get busier this time of year while all others wind down?

My time off this Xmas is Christmas Day - woo hoo!

 

[Xàbia Shrimper]

Get a proper job then, Dave!

 

[Jai]

Worked all day yesterday, watched all the admin and sales staff leave at 12 while we didn't get out until 5.30pm, and I'm working until about 7pm today and then back in on Wednesday.

News doesn't stop for Christmas, apparently.

 

[Leeboy]

thanks to ONE railways I had an extra day off

normally I would be fuming and asking for a refund but I would like to think it was their Xmas present to me
