Asparagus

This entry was going to be an extended finger (not the one you are thinking of!) with the title: Looking out for number 1. Then, while my lovely assistant Jo was helping me get the focus right, I grabbed a piece of our soon to be steamed asparagus as a prop. It worked for me.

Maybe you can see what a week or so of black and white has done for me.

Maybe not.

So why was I going to call this "Looking out for number 1"? Well, it is work related. After a weekend when I went in on both Saturday and Sunday, I got bailed up by the production manager and the boss for not filling in a job sheet on the weekend. Actually me and just about everyone else who worked on the weekend. Fair enough. The irritating bit was that they told me I wouldn't get paid if I didn't fill one in.

Right?

Wrong.

I clocked in and clocked out, under the scrutiny of the security cameras so they have to pay me regardless. Threats just get on my nerves but I held my tongue. Backchat will get me nowhere right now. I think I might be unavailable for weekend overtime for a while though.

I keep reminding myelf that I have options but I choose to stay where I am.

Sorry to burden you all with my work woes. This is my outlet though.

Good news. Ferrari won the French GP, and specifically, Massa. Yay!
