Over the hills and far away

This week, Si has been on a training course.   8 hours a day, sitting right next to me.  

He's on an internet link to several other people and a tutor;  and does modules after each speaky bit. 

It's left me a bit bored.  I like his conference calls to his colleagues in the morning and the afternoon.    They split my morning up, and give me some idea when the day is going to end.... 

As it is, I've just got to work, keep my head down and talk to no one.   Sad days. 

I had one moment today.  One of my colleagues in India responded to a question I asked, and apologised for the delay, she said she had a day off, and had been in hospital.   

I told her to go away, and I'd speak to her tomorrow; and she said that no, she was happy to speak with me, because she was trying to be more like........ ME

I said, no no, you don't want to be that.... I'm bad.

I think this is a good thing....I'm not 100% sure.  Does she want to be a moany, grumpy boss-type, or does she see me as Helpful, obliging, a good egg and  someone to look up to......
