Different types of pains in my arse

I ache today. I think it is the culmination of a lot of exercise over the past 3 days, including 2 games of netball yesterday. Ouch. Saffa is walking round like a cowboy as well and blaming the netball, although she did mention it could be something else….. Well she made Kirstie blush which is quite an achievement!

No Moon Monkey on the bench as yet, I can’t see that ever happening to be honest. Shame as I think it would be feckin’ hi-larious to see him bouncing about the court and getting the whistle blown at him every 10 seconds.

Not much else going on in the office currently, my new desk means I am far, far away from old CJ (she came round to see me yesterday asking if I was missing my old desk to which I said a resounding “no”) and so my stress levels have lifted somewhat, hence the lack of ranting recently. I know, I know you miss the ranting! Don’t worry I’m sure something new to rant about will pop up soon. Sitting next to Kirstie is quite comedy as she tends to sing random songs, make funny comments and gladly distract me from my work on a regular basis. She’s enjoying the saga of my Face Book stalker too (he asked me to go see Toy Story 3 with him today) but feels a bit sorry for poor Mr Chan. After she has stopped laughing at his messages that is.

FB seems to have disappeared this week. We’re not sure where to. It could be that last week was her week of trying to impress by turning up for work before 10am and sitting at her desk diligently (checking her emails and FB all day if what Kirstie saw when she walked past is anything to go by) and now this week she has fallen back into her usual routine of ‘working from home’. An odd thing happened when Kirstie went to talk to Moon Monkey about the office move we are having at Christmas (we’re moving buildings again – next door) and asked if she could sit closer to him in the new building to save her walking across the office every 3 minutes. He said “you can sit there” and gestured to FB’s desk so Kirstie said “but that’s FB’s desk” and he shrugged.

So now we’re wondering if this means a) she’s not coming back to use her desk, b) MM hates her that much that he would like to see her things moved without her knowing about it and Kirstie parked in there instead or c) he’s just a management retard who has no idea about office politics and that it might be deemed as ‘rude’ to just uproot a colleague because you like their chair and position by the window. I’m hoping for a, would love for b to happen just to see the look on FB’s face but am expecting c.

If she’s not coming back I’m sure this won’t be announced to the rest of us plebs for a good few weeks yet. Maybe I passing as an AOB point in next months team meeting. I would have loved the opportunity to say goodbye to her, give her a card, a gift, a hug, a smack in the face. She probably just sidled off because she knew no one would go to her leaving party. Ahhh, well I can carry on fantasising, I expect she will walk in the door any minute now.
