Friday Frizzle

Fridays has always meant the begining of the end of the week that was. It marks the start of the weekend but before that happens, Friday nights has to be negotiated and survived.

Tonight is a ‘take it as it comes’ night. No plans but it will involve beer and women.

But I am getting ahead of myself. Before the evening can happen we have to get through the work bit. And what a challenge Friday is hey?! Some of you will have a Friday dressdown policy and will be in your crimplene slax or Levis and t-shirts.

I don’t dressdown. I still wear a suit and then when I get home I can really switch work off when I change into civvies. I believe I work better in a suit. Some arses here wear shorts to work and have ponytails down to their bums. What planet are they from?

I banned baseball caps in my dept on Fridays. Also banned trainers but had to compromise on the footwear. Anyone wearing a baseball cap in the office deserves to be ridiculed. Do I wear a cap in your house? No. I show respect and take it off before I enter. So why can’t the tossers who have not iota of a clue about what life is about, come to the office and expect me to allow a baseball cap to be worn.

I have previously seen staff listening to their iPods or other MP3s. The earphones are a dead giveaway y’know?!! Now what braincell thinks work is a lounge, the bedroom a bus, the tube or anywhere else other than the place where you are expected to give 100% of your attention and effort in exchange for a monthly salary??!

C’mon are these people really morons? If they are, then the moronic supervisor who hired them can ‘pak sy goede en trek’! If you want to listen to your music, do it before 09:00am and after 5:30pm Mon - Fri. DO NOT DO IT AT THE OFFICE.

So this is my Friday frizzle:

Stop thinking your place of work is an extension of your home. It is not. Stop wearing baseball caps or shorts at the office and do not insult your bosses by listening to your MP3 through headphones while trying to work on an Excel spreadsheet. You are not impressing anyone.
