Hmm, interesting...

Pretty sure one of the young lads and one of the girls are secretly using the disabled toilet for a discreet wee knee trembler now and again.

He'll head out to the gents, then two or three minutes later she'll head out to the ladies.

Then after maybe quarter of an hour, she'll return looking a bit flushed and out of breath. While he'll swagger in looking smug.

Ain't none of my business, I suppose, but y'know...
Another sunrise with my sad captains, with who I choose to lose my mind,
And if it's all we only pass this way but once, what a perfect waste of time.

I suppose 15 mins is enough time for a quick winch and some hands down knickers action.

Banjo, as the son of an ex vicar I think that’s a tad righteous, I was trying to inject some humour and I suspect Spleen was doing the same, If my racy comments about my prowess have offended anyone then I unreservedly apologise!

Yeah. Just trying to be humorous.

It's really none of my business what other people may or may not be doing with each other in the disabled toilet.

As I've mentioned previously, it's a very relaxed workplace. You're OK to take an extra couple of minutes on your break, as long as you don't boot the arse out of it.

There were a couple of times last summer when - with my team leads permission - I nipped outside for a wee breath of fresh air cos I was on the verge of nodding off.

Spleen, I’m all for banter and as long as it does not upset our Dot and other ladies I can have a wee laugh too, with our advanced years and how you are brought up it is very easy in the workplace to overstep the mark orally and upset someone, so with that in mind I have reigned my neck in a bit and let the young uns get on with it, BUT, they do think they invented the world, the young uns tend to do it all on their devices!

It's pretty much a 50/50 split, age wise, at my work.

There's us old farts that've been around the block a few times
Then there's "the kids" who are wired to the moon on those vile tasting energy drinks.

Kind of depressing actually. All the girls are gorgeous, and I'm old enough to be their dad.

Spleen at least you are wise enough to admit it, time to step back and let the young uns come through unhindered by us wise old Crinklies

yep, as a fully paid up auld fart, chatting to the friends of my grandkids makes me think about what we shouldn't have done at the works dos all those years ago.
The yoof of today know it all.... just like we thought we did all these years ago. Nothing changes :|

Ohh, I honestly despair...

We started back on the social work stuff this afternoon.

For all of an hour, before we went back to the medical stuff.
They still don't have the proper bloody paperwork for it!

If this screws up my timesheets and I don't get paid, I will not be happy.

Still not been paid. Pretty sure no one's been paid yet.

In fact, I had to leave work an hour early so I could go to the bank and pay in some cash to keep me afloat.

Hope the situation has or is going to be resolved and pronto.

Finally got paid Wednesday of last week, so that panic is over with.

New panic. We do our own timesheets online via the Intuit Quickbooks website, so we've got to keep track of how many hours we work each day on which medical practice.

Every time there's a change of practice, I make a note of the name, the date, and the time (to the nearest quarter hour) in my wee notebook.

Problem is, today when I went to do my timesheet for this week, for some reason the system didn't recognise the practices I was working on all day Tuesday and yesterday morning (Calderlea Surgery), and this morning (Ballahulish Medical).

Can't do anything about it tomorrow or Monday, cos I'm taking a couple of days off and spending the weekend with my friends up in Perth.

So, Tuesday morning, I'll keep an eye out for our nice HR lady. Have a wee word with her.
