Happy Friday folks

.

Well trailer ready and bike out from under its covers, checked that 2 bikes would go on the little trailer and all good

.
Load up the Zed tomorrow after a reshuffle in the garage to get trailer in.
Glad I spent the early afternoon in the cool garage as the sun has been cracking the cobbles today

.

M took the defender to fill up and get some jerry cans of fuel, She has now gone off on the quad with a carrier bag to collect sloes, So they "don't go to waste"

.
We haven't managed to drink the batches from 5 & 6 years ago yet

and now we will have more on the go

.

Not long till the weekend for the workers enjoy folks

Maybe they'll explain why,as I seem to remember you saying you could and have been doing.
Sounds like your boss or your boss's boss needs a fucking big kick up the Khyber pass.

the main boss likes to see his little worker bee's in the office. the guy below him thinks people can't work from home and therefore are exempt from the 'work from home if you can' guidance
as such we should all be in the office because and i quote 'you know what the culture is like here'. i said.. yes I do and its bollox

Boris said peeps who can wuk from ome shud, but yer can go ter wuk if yer can't wuk frompt ome. Thats assuming yer wuk int closed becus it's a pub etc thats been closed. Tis becoming more common fer wuks ter want yer ter go ter wuk as they want the biznis bak ter full steem. Tis understandabul but they has-ter mayk if safe for yer. Yer cud ask for a compromise ter wuk a few days int office un rest of wuk week ut ome, un see how it goes. Potenshlly they has the option ter demand yer go bak if they has mayd it safe.

My job is entirely IT based, everything I do is in the cloud. so long as I have an internet connection, i'm good to go. I've been working full steam for months, they are just requiring me to sit in a large office instead of sit at my desk at home, to make the office look full

They have done the same at my place. I am exempt along with a few others due to vulnerable status. It seems silly as we have four buildings and they could save so much by shutting a couple of them down!

There are some companies including mine thats reeleyesd peeps can wuk frompt ome more than they did before. They did do sum o'cayshunul ut ome but the wulrus forced peeps ome and peeps reeleyesd they cud wuk frompt ome all the time. Not all but a lot. So it is purrin presshur ont biznis who spend a lot ont office space. The fewer peeps int bildin... the smorller the bildin they needs. Cud that be the problem or is it becos of peeps like me that skyv ut ome? (and wuk but only sumtimes). Is they tryin ter lever bak uvvas?
