The Italian Job
|
I usually am, but i was angry yesterday and left a little early.
I'm still a bit annoyed, hopefully I'll feel better later. I admit I have a bit of a temper. But it's hard to control yourself when some people accuse you of things you didn't do

I'm reasonably happy but not very fulfilled, I'm trying quite hard to get a new job or a promotion because I don't feel under enough pressure where I am really. It's a big change from my last job which was much worse for pay, lower skilled, worse work/life balance etc but at least I was always busy there

i've scaled back my work a lot and completely removed the stress element from it, so the exact opposite of Matt I'm happy enough doing what i do

Boris said his team were ridiculously busy, and needed many drunken parties to unwind, so there must be stress somewhere in the civil service
My brother worked for the civil service over the summer once, and he took 2 weeks off and no-one noticed |

I'm sure the senior people during covid were working very hard and maybe I'm being a bit unkind to my colleagues by generalising. I've never had an employer so conscious to helping staff avoid stress though, there's endless wellbeing seminars, resources etc. plus there's the flexible hours, good job security etc. In some ways it's all very progressive but it was a bit of a culture shock from being in a private sector role where no one gave a damn about you |

My workplace is very stressful.
Definitely a challenge, but it keeps me busy.

It wasn’t just booze. The whole of that street was snorting coke during most of the pandemic.

That's actually pretty worrying ...how easily people can lie and try to ruin someone's reputation. Good job about camera's, sadly they're not always around though to prove someone's innocence.

The cameras where we're working are always running. Thankfully.

Thank God for that, V. I hope you’re not too shaken after it all.

Don't know what your work environment is but I've worked in my office for 10+ years and my god there has been some complete bellends pass through that will bull**** and pass the buck all the time. But I've learnt from experience to put full notes on our system or communicate anything i am unsure of by email so that nothing can come back on me ! Thankfully the current team is honest and reliable but I still cover my back just in case ...
