[Fourfingers frankie]

Just finished second series of Dexter. I'd make that English girls face look like a plasterers radio. Hnnnnnnng.

Not looking forward to tomorrow but ill find out if I got the job I think.

[Daco]

So I have an interview tomorrow which is all good and all. Except for the little part about it being at 9am

Even when I was getting up early for my last job I was never good before 10am...

Earlier in the week i finally got given the keys to my new place, four weeks late. It's a student house and they gutted the house, all new stuff and i was put into temporary accommodation, so no biggy i thought, it'll be worth it. I've been working, so haven't had time to check it out until today.

I walk onto the street and i am greeted by a pile of builders rubbish 5 feet high in the front garden. The front door is filthy, it's covered in paint and dust and plaster, the alcove has a hole in it. I go in, the carpets are nice and clean, they've been vacuumed! However, everything else in the house, and i mean everything is fucking covered in building dust. I go in further, there are corners and edgings not finished. There are wires and unfinished plasterboard edges all around the gas and electric meter. The tiles in the bathrooms are still covered in that shit they cover them with when they're grouting, there are even holes in the fucking grouting. If the switch fixtures are attached at all, they barely cover the holes they cut into the plaster board, which they somehow managed to cut too big. In the kitchen, there is saw dust in all the draws and cupboards. There is also a hole in the back door where they put new piping through but haven't bothered to seal.

If the fact that it's barely finished and the rest is obviously a rush job isn't bad enough, the place is supposed to be fully furnished, its a student house. The bedrooms have a bed, the shittiest desk you've ever seen and nothing else. No wardrobes, no draws, no shelves. The kitchen/living area has a new sofa! It's even clean! It also has two fridge freezers! Only... one either doesn't work or the plug socket it's plugged into doesn't work and the fridge that does work is tiny, looks 15-20 years old and is missing shelves. There is a washing machine and the fact it's 10-15 years old wouldn't normally bother me, accept it might possibly be the dirtiest thing in the entire house. Nothing in the draws or cupboards either. Oh, and there is a massive hole where i assume a dish washer is supposed to go, but they never bothered to install one.

I am so fucking angry right now.

Believe it or not it's just me.

This sounds like a common issue.

Fucking poor quality construction/work m8.

Call them up and tell them you think someone broke in and fucked up the place and then tried to cover it up with shoddy building work. Also take photos.

Today is welpo day.

Found out (because I read my e-mail) that I am supposed to hand deliver my company's proposal to a prospective client today. Ok. This is in the city I used to work in - hell if you have to park anywhere in the city centre. Guess what, yes, correct. I'm not sure how much time I have to get there/deliver, since the deadline is at a fixed/unmutable time. Good god. Do not want.

One small good thing: I will most probably be able to sneak in a visit to my former coworkers, have a quick lunch with them and see how they do.

Before then though, WELPO - the parking.

[Dartzap]

Get the train/bus/bike/taxi/hotair balloon?

Bloody drivers, never thinking outside the box :P

tonight I stepped out on my back porch to chillax a bit. upon opening the glass door and turning on the light a skunk was right next to the door hissing and starting to show me his rear, I then slammed the glass door and decided to check my front porch for chillaxing potential. I was greeted by that same skunk tearing ass around the corner of my house running towards my porch. I am now currently hiding in my house trembling in fear of smelling very bad when I leave my house for work in the morning.
