A Lazy Goblin
02/07/2006 11:17 pmIzzie is a lazy serpent today. After a sniffly sneezie day at work last night, informed the registered nurse that the Iz would be taking off Sunday and Monday sick. Really should have stayed at home yesterday too but simply cannot afford to miss both days of weekend pay rates - especially as the mean and nasty goblins gave Izzie a pissy 50 hours for this whole fortnight. (We usually get 56-60)
Like - the Iz is available both mornings and afternoons five days a week and has been there longer than most but they still went and gave the longer shifts to the newbies. Izzie suspects it may have had something to do with the usual one writing the roster having been on holidays so Peggie - Miss Piggie's daughter did it instead. (And since a certain series of events in April 2005, Izzie no longer bothers giving the pair of them the respect that they don't deserve. Like - will be civil and all that but will no longer indulge in the silly 'Hello - how are you? sort of chit chat unless they initiate it. )
So, we used the opportunity of a whole free day to snooze in the sunshine, tidy up the serpent sock drawer and to count another envelope of beans for the Potions Mistress. Guess we should actually be keeping records of the time spent on this project. The Izzie is doing it for free but it's still useful to know what sort of time is involved. So far - seems to be about two hours per month of receipts. Of course - a proper Goblin or one of those trained data entry operaters would be much faster but the only way to learn is by actually doing it.
