Waiting......

by TwistedPsycho @ 29/03/2007 - 16:07:09

I am sat here, waiting.... waiting for the clock to tick over until I go to work, waiting for the computer to finish uploading a movie to my mobile for the long night ahead, waiting for a reason never to work again.... just waiting.

Its going to be another boring night, so I will most likely post around 11pm saying I am bored. Its a FRIDAY damn it and I am WORKING... I need a life, I need a woman in my life, I need intellegence in a woman in my life, I need a life.


 
 

Cock-up of the night

by TwistedPsycho @ 29/03/2007 - 10:31:53

After going through a bottle of wine last night when I got home, I was not really in the right frame of mind to post anything. I am slowly falling into the depths of depression about living alone, no reason to come home, no reason to go out.

Work was crap as a usual nightshift is. Finishing up with the me on a phone to the night-supervisor when a taxi driver refuses to take me home as booked because his taxi is booked for passengers not staff. Confused? Heres the deal.

When a train is cut short because of "engineering works" the train company puts on a bus to get the passengers onwards on the train journey. Because no one really uses the train at 1am, they put on a taxi instead. Crews are book to "travel as passengers" on these services to get back to the home depot.

The contracted taxi company has two accounts running. one paid by the company's "passenger replacement" budget, one paid by the local "staff transport" budget.

The taxi company has now decided that as it is the "passenger" account, they will not take staff on it, even if staff are booked as passengers... confused? Thought you would be.

So with one passenger in the car, the cabbie says he will drop the passenger off on the "passenger" account, then come back to do the "staff account". In reality he took both in one run and double fare.

Scam.... I think so.
