My day at work;

• Write a business case for having a desk (true!).
• Take laptop into support to get fixed.
• Get problem diagnosed as "you haven't had a rebuild for over a year." - what!!?!?!?
• Take about 40mins to logon due to network* issues and copy all the stuff I want to keep.
• Leave laptop with support - "it'll take about 4hrs mate"
• Have coffee with colleague and catch up on goss.
• Eat lunch somewhere else.
• Go to an exhibition at the NPG.
• Collect laptop.
• Install SP2 and sundry other updates - the image they use is v.v.old.

Sometimes I wonder if i've wondered into a Kafka novel.

* I can't even begin to go into the irony of this, considering I work for a telecom.
