Dead Lines

I have two hours until (New)BossLady is back... She wants to have lots of things to read... There's a word for this. Spike uses it a lot.
Saw Good People last night, and Once more with feeling...
Right, now to see just how efficient* I am.

*efficient:
1 - how much actual work can I do in two hours.
2 - how much work can I make look done in two hours.

Step away from LJ.
No, not that way, for over there lies eBay and procrastination. That's it. Word... now the file... you're getting there!

[ED or you could hit your chin on the desk whilst working on option 2 and add 3 - sympathy]

[update]
Joking aside (hahaha) it has been difficult to get as much done as quickly as I would have usually for 1 - this is a NewJob in a new organisation and 2 - (New)BossLady has been away, as have many other members of staff I would otherwise have been able to talk to. I have been deserted. Yes. And I have procrastinated and struggled to get some things that will in a month be very straight forward.
ION Oxfam are recruiting again.

Cavorting, capitalised?
Ooer.
I, obviously, know nothing and am completely innocent.

But I've got 90 minutes to do three weeks work (well, I;ve done about a weeks worth, and I was off/on holiday for a week, so its really about four days worth)... pah!
Maybe I should run away now.

Nah now what would be the fun in that?

[identity profile] kimkali.livejournal.com 2005-09-06 08:16 am (UTC)(link)
Yes... this place will look good on my CV... and in truth six months here will be enough. Three perhaps.
In fund-raising, no one hears you fill in on-line applications.

Thinking... let's see if we can remember this.

Computer. Cables. Files. Day book. Phone. Diary. Documents...

I *think* that's it....

Oh.

Day Book?
I have a note book.

I also have piles of paper which I can shuffle through whilst looking busy/important/annoyed at being asked something else.

Oh, and an Executive Dice (work late, have a meeting, send an e-mail, resign, make a phoen call, **** the secretary).

It keeps coming up resign.

And Oxfam are recruiting again.
