Ha-ha. You're a grown up.
Yes, so I'm beginning to gather. It's incredibly embarrassing.
Dave, when you get a minute, could you go into your blogger console and try to work out what the URL is for your RSS feed? It should be something like, http://yourblog.blogspot.com/atom.xml Let me know what it is, then I can add you to my list of people whose blogs I can read in one place! Ta.

Not progress, but progress towards progress
The past few days of work have been an ever-thickening morass of red tape, idiotic arse-covering and decisivelessness. Progress is at a virtual standstill. I'm running in circles trying to get Project Porkpie moving and it's just not happening. I ought to be out of my tiny little mind with frustration. Instead, today felt oddly satisfying. Oh, not because I actually got anything done, but I did end up with the feeling that I can actually cope in what appear to be extremely trying circumstances.
As an added bonus Trial, I didn't get the promotion I've been waiting for. No big surprise really - the agency doesn't really have a system for encouraging people with administrative skills. It's a problem the place has had for years and there's no real likelihood that it can change. Basically, since I have no real interest in the kind of work that is smiled upon, I've gone pretty much as far as I can go without some kind of special dispensation. Too bad, but apart from the money side of things it doesn't much bother me. I've always said this is as far as I expect to go in my current workplace. I'm much more comfortable about ditching the place and doing something else when the IT project management stops being fun.
But at the moment it's still...well, fun. Damn. Who woulda thunk it?
