..is that even when numbnuts (my colleagues lovely and accurate nickname for our supervisor, who surely is a part-time nazi and a full-time moron) is not at work meddling with things, life there can still be a struggle indeed.

 As mentioned before, we shall be TUPE’d over to another company a week today. Same job, same wage, just a different uniform. Re-branding, I suppose. Next week we will not be ‘Marathon, we’ll be Snickers’. So today we have been training a relief officer from the new company who will be able to come in and do our job if we haven’t got enough staff in. But seeing as they’re being trained, it’s been all about them sitting and us working. He was bored, and so were we, as they day was very quiet. Cold breeze through the doors and the heating cranked up to the max really didn’t help, and now the first signs of a cold can be felt. Bloody marvellous.

 And we have another day of it to go. And then he’s with me on a night shift. Still unable to do anything. So I do stuff, and he’ll follow me around and watch me do it. Grr.
