Pay day! After what feels like forever, I’ve finally gotten the salary. Minus the hefty taxes and salary sacrifice pension contributions, of course. Still, should be enough to carry us through for the next few weeks before the next one is due. The circle of life, innit?
Shook of most of my hangover blues yesterday. Dove headfirst into work, tried my best to wing it through experts taking shop about things that I know less than the square root of zero of. But I got away relatively unscathed. But my conscience can’t lie – for most part of yesterday’s calls I was fearful of being called out for a rookie fraud. And they’d have been right to too! This isn’t exactly my line of work tbh, and I am quite adept at matters to do with my field of expertise, but here I am int he front and centre of an irate customer who wants everything fixed yesterday and is demanding me to produce the goods. Thankful to my much more knowledge colleagues who bailed me out on that one.
On the house front, our mortgage brokers continue to be a shower of incompetence, whilst our Irish house is apparently officially on the market today. So, let me wait my the phone in expectation of a ridiculous offer.
And on that hopeful note, off to the races again. Cheers!
