Karl, use the red button on your 'phone next week - the one which is marked 'OFF'. And then tell management to get a grip, sort out the faulty equipment, and stop ****ing about!
My annoyance today? Tried to buy tickets for the 'Open Cockpit Night' at RAF Museum, Cosford, in May - they sold out the day they went on sale!
Ah well, there's another one in September, so maybe I'll get more luck then.
my GM has just sent the ops director a list of things he needs to sign off for purchase or repair by monday or we are not opening on time !

shame about those tickets Dogsbody
 
Yeah p*ssed off about those tickets. There was supposed to be a newsletter announcement when the tickets were due to go on sale, but I didn't get one, and only the Hendon event was mentioned in 'Radar', the RAFM Members magazine - a printing or omission error methinks. They went on sale on Feb 18th !!!
There's another one in late September, so I'll be watching closely, ready to pounce!
 
So by sending them out so late in the week, the GM is wiping his hands of his or higher(s) of the likely to ensue mistake(s), Grrr, I feel for you Roche and your fellow (dumped on) staff.

No sorry if the way I posted made it seem that way.
My GM has been asking for things to be done earlier just as have I, it is the suits higher up who want everything in triplicate and can't make quick decisions and don't trust us to do our jobs !
The original plans for the re furb contained all new equipment, this was stripped out to save money but I guarantee we will spend more on fixing old kit than we saved !

Just got in from a hectic round trip to Prince George. The wife was supposed to be on a bus to Kamloops to see #2 daughter and watch the finals of the Tim Hortons Canadian Men's Curling(she being a curling fanatic). She was supposed to catch the 1825hrs bus. At 1930hrs, no bus and she starts to panic so I "volunteer" to take her to PG to catch the last bus South. It's been raining all day on asphalt that had just spent a week in -25°C weather and on top of the icy roads there are oceans of water on the highway making for some interesting hydro-planing. Get to PG in time to get the bus, but guess what, it can't leave until the original bus shows up, 2 and a half hours late. When I got home, there was a text waiting saying she had finally got on the bus at 0045.

Just noticed the time change, still 0134 here.
 
Couldn't get to sleep last night. Finally dropped off around 05.30, only to wake up again at 06.30, then again at 07.45. Alarm went off at 08.30, and next thing I knew, it was 18.35 !!!
Missed another whole bl**dy day, which means I now have to do everything planned for today, tomorrow - and I still feel drowsy!!
