We got Dolores!!!
25/06/2003 08:31 pmWho wants boring old Constant Vigilance when we can have a new era of openness, efficiency and accountability???
Izzie's boss has just acquired herself a new title. Pity so many folks in Dursleyville are not in on the joke.
Last week she is discussing the do's and don'ts of fire safety procedure...loudly proclaiming that it is not the fire but the smoke that is dangerous while nonchalantly blowing this disgusting stuff into the face of an ickle firstie who is sitting so near that her eyeball could serve as a most convenient ashtray. Her selective hearing ignores Izzie's snide remarks about the SMOKE.
Well.. this week she certainly excelled herself in the Dolores Department.
Izzie comes around the corner just in time to hear a rant "....and it is the duty of all team leaders to ensure that staff come and see me so I can update their files....like for instance that *&^%$#*****# (Insert Izzie's muggle name) never comes near my office and is always slinking off before I can catch her.....blah blah blah"
She is not too amused when Iz instantly apparates and proclaims to the effect that the last time four months ago when I was supposed to have a 'performance appraisal' (Yes... these days even house elves have to endure such indignities) that while I turned up in her office, it was her who delayed it on several occasions because she was busy. "Now don't get shirty with me....It is YOUR duty to make time... etc etc"
So Iz suggested that making a specific time to see me might make sense since she seemed so set on it. 11 am this morning was what we came up with.
So guess who is too busy at 11 am today? Finally at 11.15 she turns up and goes through the usual crap about updating files and information and does Iz know where this that and the other is located. One of these this and thats is the COMPANY MISSION STATEMENT! Iz knows where it is located but then she asks what I think of it. ( a bit like asking Iz what she thinks of smokers, suburban assault vehicles or Gryffindors) Iz replies to the effect.. you seen one you seen them all.. sentimental management slush. NNNNot Happy is our Dolores. If you say things like that to Accreditation we will be shot down in flames..... you have an attitude problem and a very er...unusual and inappropriate sense of humour etc etc....."
As the other girls says....Oh she probably spent hours writing that thing.....imagine saying such NASTY things about her 'baby' etc etc. But they have NO problem with Izzie's evil sense of humour.
Some of them heard the rant from yesteday. Iz says... I am no longer 'Puta Gorda' or even Caracol... you can now call me SSSSSSSLINKIE!
Oh... forgot to mention...2 hours earlier she is telling us that the accreditation mob who are coming to inspect on 22/23 July will be very interested in fire safety procedures in particular and may ask trick questions and use fancy words such as asking where is the 'egress' to the building. She asks if any of us know what an 'egress' is ( and probably thinking.. dumb stupid and uneducated house elves.. most unlikely) And guess WHO knew. Not only did ickle Hermione Iz know but she was the ONLY one who knew....but wait I DIgress ;)
Izzie thinks it really pissed her off most mightily indeed.
So Iz sneaks out early as usual at 13.15 (Never mind that the shift is supposed to be 7.00 -13.00) and smirks.....Izzie is Egressssssssing the building!
So now it is time to sit in the corner and scribble
"I must be nice to Dolores"
"I must be nice to Dolores"
"I must be nice to Dolores"
"I must..........
