The world of work

Had to go into [gasp] an office this morning for project meetings. I have been doing copy on various publicity materials that, we hope, will insert us into dodgy government buildings worldwide.

Quote of the morning:

Colleague, wild-eyed: "He did say - 'when we go to Iraq,' didn't he?"
Me: "I'm afraid he did."

We have a possible contract in Basra. Eek. Also angling for a contract with the Libyans. Tripoli suddenly looks very appealing in comparison.

Update: boss has apparently put me on the insurance for the new Mercedes Kompressor. Very pleased about this. What do you mean - "I'm shallow"??
