Was trawling this avo and ran across this, one of the funniest photoshop jobs I think I've ever seen;

Well, half way through what I knew would be a 16 hour day yesterday I was informed that I have no more holidays this year. The company's accountant has checked his records and believes that I took 10 days extra last year and 5 days the year before so should take none until 2012, or something. This could get ugly and short of burning bridges, I'm not sure what I can do (assuming he's right about the hols, of course). I'm not sure how much stock to put in a potential reference from them, The last 2 companies I worked for before this mob are both now defunct so this is really the only contemporary reference I have. All I know is I'm losing sleep thinking about it, which is not good when I had only 6 hours last night to sleep as it was. Currently in Seoul, preparing to meet the GC from the Dark Side.

For some reason I can't access this blog in Korea, so can't get your messages of support (such as they are likely to be)

Planning on sailing again this weekend, factor-a-billion sunblock on order...

Cheers

A quick note, 'cause I'mm off on me travels again today. Currently 8am at HKIA; fly to Taipei today then Seoul this afternoon, returning to HK on Thursday evening.

Our GC in Korea, I am pretty sure, wants to hire another (almost certainly Korean, they're better, you see) company instead of the client's nomination, ie; us. They are currently taking the position that they "officially ignore" all of our design and sample submittals and something about fruitlessness that I couldn't quite work out the context of but the gist was clear; "we're not dealing with you". I'm sure all will be even less clear by Thursday.

Sunday was a top Brunch at the Intercon with Guy (about the only brunch he hasn't been barred from, although it always seems reported to be the fault of "FAsT ROB" man if mystery... Went over quite well, I was back at home, trousered, by 5pm and rolled a couple of naughties before realising that if andrea rang, I wouldn't be able to speak. Slept for 14 hours and was late for work Monday. One of our number, the aptly named "Growler" didn't turn up at the office until 11am, which is good considering he's supposed to work from 7 to 4. We were a little worried as there has been a spate of lectherous pissed up westerners (Growler is all of these, and proud of it) being drugged with that date rape gear and being cajoled into emptying their bank accounts. Apparantly the bank insurance doesn't cover this, either. Another dealer mate of Guy's got done over for nearly 20grand a couple of months ago. Worse still is the rumour that some paople make the drug at home from toilet cleaner and toe nail scrapings, or something. Fortunately I don't hang around with such sorts, only with those that do. Could it be infectious?

My plane leaves in 35 mins so I suppose I'd better scurry off to the gate.

See y'all later
