"I'm heading for to see you on business in July, about the 18th July until the 25th. Before that I'm on business in Baltmore from the 13th to the 18th. Are you in town."
this message was just forwarded to me by the CG. its from my old friend (and the CGs very very old friend martin). the last time i saw him was at one of our many "moving to canada" parties about 2 and a half years ago. i can't believe its been that long. i can't believe i'll be seeing him again soon. (i can't believe his message makes him sound so grammatically challenged :)) i guess its not appropriate to pee onself with excitement at work though.
ps if you live in baltimore and want to hang out with the guy with the big white balloon in july email me :)

yesterday we all got dragged into work at 8.30am and spent most of the day in the hands of a facilitator with an array of coloured felt tip pens. we sat around for hours, in alphabetical order no less, talking about our strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (T.W.A.T). the idea was to build our confidence and set us on a path to...something...i couldn't really work out what...but i don't think my ignorance mattered. anyway, we started the day with what i percieved as communal cynicism and ended the day with barely concealed, office-wide despair. the problem is that the company boat doesn't have a rudder. every time the government does its spring cleaning we get a new CEO...out with the old in with the new...and off we go on a different course. right now we have no CEO and we are adrift and lost and one step away from chowing down on the weaker members of staff.
ah well. a cup of tea will make it all better :)
