I’ve got a bit of a headcold at the moment, seems to be going around, likely that Angel bought it home from school as per usual. And I’m debating whether or not to go to work today, I’m not feeling so dreadful, so likely I will go in. Never had a casual job before where ringing in for sick leave meant you didn’t get paid, so it’s an new an unusual feeling to still be motivated to turn up even though I’m not 100%. Must still have some of that unfortunate public service mentality going on I think, whereby, there’s no way you bother turning up if you’re under the weather, unless you have something particularly pressing requiring your attention…. and how often did that happen!?!?!
I managed to get through yesterday on the phones, even though talking all day does nothing for you if you’ve got a sore throat. My voice is rather more husky than normal this morning, which would be fine (perhaps even a bonus!) if I was a phone operator in a different industry, but for a technical support help desk… maybe not so much. SirPhil and I were joking about it this morning..
“Welcome to Goliath, this is borysSNORC! How may I help you?… You have a problem with your ADSL? Okay… Can I please have your Username and your credit card details, as this call attracts a charge of $3.95/minute…..”
If anyone asks me what I’m wearing… I’m going to pack up my bag and ball and come home 🙂
