    You're Late

    This is what I was presented with when I arrived at work this morning. 9am sharp.

    "Really? What time were you expecting me?"

    <dismissive hand gesture>
    "Never mind, now about such and such ....."

    Now one of the other colleagues is giving me the cold shoulder.

    Taken in the context that I have been starting between 8 and 8:30 most days, but I told them a few days back that I shall start at 9, and work later as otherwise I have a long boring evening at the hotel.

    Also taken in the context that I never leave until the work is done, and on the occasion they have needed me to fly out on a Sunday so I can come in early on Monday I have done this without question. Also when they have just generally needed me to come in early (say 6:30am) again I have done this without question.

    Am I bovvered?

    How late? Any sickness? Tender breasts? Have you done a test?

          But I never swallow. I can't be. Really really can't be.

            Tell them to shove a big fat pretzel up their sauerkrat arse.

            Because you are a contractor, and you can!
