Nothing to report.
Work is ... work. I am job hunting more aggressively now; my target is to try and find three jobs I can apply for in a week. This isn't entirely feasible, as there aren't many jobs out there that cater to my particular skillset (or, y'know, the areas around my skillset). But I'm trying.
Mostly I get "thank you for your application but.." letters. I expected that. And as I do actually have a job, I'm not overly concerned.
I took an escalation today, from WhinyGirl. I was really proud of how I handled it; everyone in earshot complimented me, in fact. I was so pleased with myself!
Ten minutes later, the guy emailed service desk to thank us for our patience with his grouchiness. I mean, it was nice that he admitted he was being a bit of an arse, but ... it also slightly deflated my buzz over my Cool Calm Call Handling.
I have a glass of red wine (Wyndham Estate Bin 444 Cabernet Sauvignon), basil pesto (with cashews and parmesan), red leicester, smoked applewood cheddar, whisky cheddar, and a bread roll for dinner.
And two cuddly cats, who mostly want the cheese, rather than any particular evidence of affection; they are also aware that it is T-30 to dinnertime, and are hanging about somewhat pointedly with that in mind.
