Hello
hmmmmmm what to write about me as an intro.....damn its make or break time. First impressions are so vital. Oooooo the pressure.
I'm living in South Wales but originate from Essex (No I don't own White stillettos and No I'm not an Essex girl!). I don't bite, I do pinch, I love chocolate and I one day plan on learning lots of stuff I can't do yet.
Hobbies:- include juggling, balls
and clubs , Diablo, poi, doodling, music, hating housework (dust is natures way of showing what the burglars have stolen), making things, pulling things to bits (mainly to see how they work) , embarrassing my nieces and nephews (great fun hobbie that all aunties should take up), hugging trees and talking to bees (watch out for the squirrels......they ARE out to get you!)
Ambitions:- Never to grow up. Learn how to burn things safely
To that ends learning how to poi without stunning myself, blacking my eye or turning myself into a human torch. Learn to play more than one tune on the guitar. Rule the World. Learn to Surf. Conquer my fear of heights. Travel the world in a van with a man named Bob ("why Bob?" you ask...well why not Bob? I'm sure there are loads of nice men called Bob out there! Simons and Johns need not apply).
Boring stuff:- work in sales to pay the bills.

Don't worry Spritie... there's a month yet... we'll look after him, and in the meantime, it's fun to tease him (specially cos he takes it so well)

No, I think he's just teasing really.
He's calling you names because you admitted privately encouraging people to dress him up (and good on you for it)... just think of a retort (but all in good fun)... you know he loves attention... so tease him for it
Ahem, for example: 'Attention slut'

I prefer not to tease people because it usually doesn't go over well when I do it...so, I'll be waiting in the corner

RANT WARNING! Do not read this post its just me ranting and letting off steam.
Today has been one of those days where you could end up on a murder charge.
I work with a guy that is unable to do his job. He cannot, or will not admit he is incapable of the tasks given to him. He bumbles along and by some good fortune and the fact that I and another woman I work with pick up his mistakes and right them before the customers become aware anything has gone wrong, none of his mistakes ever got seen by higher management. He always refuses to admit his mistakes and never ever says sorry.
Not long ago I had a run in with this man because he was stealing other peoples sales as his own on the computer system by going in and changing the codes on them after they had been entered. I caught him out by turning on the history logger....... to cut a long story short after I offered him the chance to go and admit what he had done to management rather than me telling them, he tried to say I'd set it up and implicated him and that I was bullying him....... he later retracted all this. It was all utter bollox. He got his wrist slapped and was put on probation.
Today he has done one mistake after another. Each time I tried hard to stay out of it. I decided to just let him get on with it and if it came to it and a customer didn't get what they ordered or they got it at half the price it should have been..... well it was up to them to complain. It was winding me up doing that as I don't really think its fair that the customer should suffer because of his inability to do his job. The straw that broke my back was a little old lady. She wanted to buy a motion bed for her sick husband as she was finding it hard to care for him. She told my co worker over and over that the bed had to be a certain height and that she had to have an exact delivery time so she could have someone there with her to move her husband from the bed he was in now, get that bed out of the way and the new on in its place. This old lady looked utterly exhausted. My co worker messed about measuring the beds and calculating leg length and stuff whilst this poor old lady just stood there. In the end after writing down a whole load of junk on an order pad he asked her to pay..... he had added it up wrongly and tried to over charge her by £120. This poor woman blushed at him and said she only had money to the amount she had been quoted over the phone for the bed and that she would have to come back another day with the money. I couldn't take it any more and I stepped in and pointed out his adding mistake. He turned to me and said "Who's serving her! YOU OR ME!" Then he turned to the woman and asked her for the right price. She got it out of her bag in £10,£5, coins..... it was all mixed up in bags. She had obviously raided every piggy bank she owned to get the money together for this bed for her husband. All my Co- worker could do was tut and say "God this will take an age to count"
I could have killed him. I was sooooooooo angry with him I could have smacked him over the head with something heavy. Never once did he say sorry to the woman for being wrong about the price nor did he treat her with any respect.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Ok I think I'm done ranting about him. Sorry about that. I just had to get it out of my system.
