*NEWSFLASH* - Happy 1millionth to Brad McHarrision. Brad Harrision is currently enjoying a fabulous party. A fabulous party for a fabulous, albeit slightly clumsy man :D.
Some of you may or may not be aware that I, Sharkypants, have recently started a new job. In an office, as an ''admin assistant'' at the regional headquarters of a charity. Or in other slightly less fancy words, I am a paper pusher!
I have now completed my second week, and so far it has gone fairly well, apart from a few minor issues, all of which happened yesterday.
I am still not entirely sure what I am supposed to do in the office. I have spent a large amount of time on solitaire, hearts, freecell. Not minesweeper, I have never understood that game. My boss on numerous occasions asks me if I am OK and if I need any help with my 'work'. I always say that I'm doing OK and I don't need any help (well solitaire is a fairly simple game). However, I am beginning to get concerned about the work they think I'm doing. I fear I may well be fired once they find out I am a fraud!
I had a meeting on Thursday. Everyone else took pens, paper etc. I took a Capri sun and an orange.
I was asked to file away some files on Friday. It was a relatively simple task. But I messed up. I panicked. They are now all hidden in my desk drawer untill I find out a solution.
I did some photocopying. But I hit a button by accident and it started churning out page after page of what appeared to be nonsense. I tried to push 'stop' but it didn't stop. When I left at 4.45 I went past the photocopy room and it was still going.
If there's nothing left of the amazon by Monday please do not send any angry tree hugging hippies to me.
I'm off for a relaxing Saturday night swim.
Toodle pips !

ALWAYS take a pen and notepad, makes you look really efficient and it's a good opportunity to make shopping lists and general doodles.
Can't give you any photocopying advice unless it's about photocopying your bum. Hilarious.
If your boss asks you if you're ok again report him for harrasment immediately.
Um, think that's all my office advice. Hope it's helped.

I like to gradually fall asleep in meetings and drool a bit. Best to sit at the front whilst doing this for maximum effect. I hope you sucked on the last bits of your capri sun really loudly.
Photocopiers are evil, i always slightly panic whenever i use one.
