Going to a funeral today and the name on the card is exactly the same as mine … and it wasn’t me.

Dunno, I’m just an idiot.

Lunch room - On Monday they get 3 loaves of bread, ham, salami, turkey, lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, capsicum and some apples, bananas and oranges delivered fresh. Help yourself. No need to make lunch any more!Booney wrote:New job.
Into it.
In the cupboard there's about 30 tins of tuna, 30 packs of noodles and various protein/muesli bars.
Beer fridge - Currently has 2 cartons of Heinekens and a carton of Peroni in it.
Wine rack - About 15 bottles of red and glasses ready to go.

Seriously - that's not too dissimilar to my own workplace. Fruit, muesli bars, chockies, a dozen different sorts of tea - and most importantly, an industrial scale coffee machine. Drinks fridge stacked with softies for the monthly barbecues, and a harder drinks trolley which appears every Friday evening.
I'm guessing you're at a small-ish company. These things invariably never happen at the bigger joints. Makes a difference from working in the University and Public Service sectors.

Re: Things that you rate!
On Friday I had my total knee replacement, just got home after weekend in hospital. Saturday was pretty bad pain wise but got on top of the meds and got the knee moving, now set up at home with walking frame and stick. New best friends seem to be the ice machine, drugs, couch & netflix.
Thanks to Gadj & Kahuna for the advice, been very helpful in setting expectations and hints/tips. Despite the pain the knee already feels much better structurally than before. Doc was happy with the surgery, despite it being one of the worst ones he has seen, couldn't get the screws and staples out from my previous ACL reco but he believes it wont impact me going forward.
