The following Dodgers have been smited by the JDK for their crimes against Jam:
All the girls! for picking on the JDK and damaging his already delicate self esteem!
The Basserd Who Nicked Copper's Stuff For the offense of nicking Copper's stuff. You are a tw*t, whoever you are and we all hope you get run over by a tram in Nottingham. Or Liverpool. Or whereever else they have trams!
Copper For the crime of playing with her Wii instead of her Jammie pals!
I'm on holiday too! (or at least my non-working day between two holidays)
Back to work on Wednesday laden with home-made birthday sweeties. (Unless it all goes horribly wrong in the kitchen in which case I'll be off out to Greggs!)
I've said it before and I'll say it again - your team management need a kick in the goolies for that - good job it wasnt me in your position because they would have been shown exactly where to stick it - with a diagram and followed up with a practicle demonstration.

It seems no-one else in Bristol has access to a certain drive in Andover on which a certain database resides, Suey. You know the one. That meant that no one else could run a certain bit of code that updates that database.
This all stems from a recent re-structure that's left me effectively without a boss for the next few weeks. Yay me! So it's kinda hard to follow Stead's advice and kick em in the goolies when they ain't exactly in kicking distance.
Pffff - ultimately there are people paid unbelievable money to make sure that stuff like this is planned for - so someone needs a kicking -
I know it sounds extreme - but companies rely too heavily on the good will of their people to bail them out of problems that they should have planned for. I was on holiday last week and despite there being 3, yes 3 people on my team being paid six figure salaries to run things, I received 4 - count them 4 calls at home on my holiday!
It really isnt on and just another example of how 'words and figures differ' when these firms bang on about the work life balance...
Rant over...

Damper? That just flat-out ruins it, no?
Why I ranted, that is...
