Flexibility.

It’s a big word. It’s used around here alot these days. We are having alot of internal talks on flexible working hours and work life balance and stuff like that. The most inflexible flexible working hours was introduced an hour ago, you could change your start time to be within a 2 hour period but you had to do it every day. So there was no way to say come in and leave an hour earlier on a Thursday if you wanted to do a course or anything like that. So pretty useless in my opinion anyway. But it’s getting better, lots more talking about it and it sounds like it might actually become a little more flexible which would be good.

The other way it’s been talked about or indeed around is the actual work. As far as I’m concerned you have to be flexible, you have to be able to give and take. You don’t just do exactly what it says on the piece of the paper and you fucking well don’t sit around and do nothing until you get that piece of paper. That really pisses me off. It then can become a nightmare to actually do anything and move forward and it wastes my time and everyone else’s time. I really hate it. CYA, bollocks just do your fucking job, it’s not up to me to tell you what that is, you know what it is and you know how to do it, so just fucking do it. Slightly annoyed by that one there as you may be able to tell.
