Claire posts mystery blogs where we go and and comment and its organic ....
I wonder if I can post a "cheer me up blog" ?? Any bad jokes? Links to humorous pictures? Anything to get up out of the blahs ...
I'm at work - its three days before Christmas and I'm only here for my paycheck. My good staff are on holidays and I am surrounded my naysayers and doom prophets and obstinate old biddies who wont do a lick of work and I have no backup from management to force them to pull their socks up.
Its so demoralising and my positivity techniques are just not working.
Any suggestions? Aside from visualizing said team members becoming acquainted with the myriad of ways to die via interesting weaponry ....
Disemboweled by a spoon?
Having their brain eaten by Claire's slugs with 27,000 teeth ....

Bury them in an avalanche of books in a little known section where they will never be found again - L-space springs to ming. Send them to their doom among the grimoires? Cattleprod wired to the mains, threaten to cut off their tongues if they say even one negative thing in the next couple of days. As for the idle biddies, creep up behind them and yell BOO!. Yu never know, they might just drop dead of a heart attack
Some friends form my last organisation visited a couple of weeks ago - they said this place is such a maze that it could definitely have L-space here :)
Unfortunately we're int he middle of a stocktake - so all corners are being dusted ... mind you there are a number of people missing ... they might NOT be on annual leave ....
{blushes} I've actually tried the boo thing - it didn't work ....
I like the cattleprod idea though .....
Bugger, they must be the Hardy Antipodean Biddy, a close relation to the English Evil Witch!
The Monty Python architect designing the new public building with spinning knives and blood channels comes to mind right now.
I know it's not becoming of a manager to raise their voice, but I have a girl who yells at me every time I correct her. I finally raised my voice back and told her in no uncertain terms I was the manager. I then wrote her up and told her the next time she raised her voice at me...she would be sent home without pay. Haven't had a problem with her since!
Mel, I happen to have a greeting card in my drawer that reads like this:
All Stressed out?
Sometimes it helps to think of happy scenes--Maybe a pastoral field, a field with a babbling brook. You're there on a lovely summer's day...
holding someone HEAD under the water. Now you're letting them up for a second, then BLAM! Back into the freezing water! Over and over again!
There. Feeling better?
Well, I feel better :)

I spoke with mum and Alison last night and decided for my mental health not to go into work today. I'll go in tomorrow - Christmas Eve. But if I go in today and I'm the only one working again I'm just going to make myself miserable.
Lyne, I'm not allowed to threaten anyone's pay. I can;t write them up - I cannot discipline them. My own supervisor will NOT back me up. I tell them to do something, they talk to her and she says "no you don;t have to do what Melissa tells you".
I've seen her boss and he just says "if you have a problem with your supervisor you've got to sort it out with her - its not my problem".
