Sharing The Love

You know what I really appreciate? Note, I am being sarcastic about this, it is when you organise yourself perfectly, you get a second set of photos from, say, a Christmas party, perhaps a work Christmas party - you get that second set of photos to take into work, you even organise it so that you have a photo album, admittedly, the oldest photo album you have, you have that photo album to show the photos, a second set mind you, to show the photos without endless fingerprints going on them so that even CSI wouldn't be able to find the murder suspect.

You take said photo album with said photos into work, and surprise surprise, you are being complimented on how well you take photos - not being sarcastic about that, it was quite a pleasant surprise to take those compliments. In fact, the photos are so good apparently, that before all your fellow team members have seen them, it is decided to whisk it, the album, upstairs to the powers that be to perhaps load them into a powerpoint file. This is what the staff get up to dot pps perhaps they will call it. Well chuffed.

But then, you are getting asked by fellow staff members, on your own floor, whether they can see the pictures, there is a reputation growing about them, and you say that no, you don't have them, they are up on another floor waiting to be scanned. You send an email up to said staff member who has your album, not meaning to rush things along or anything, because you are generally a nice guy, especially so at work, just querying when the scanning will be done.

Oh, guess what, they are too busy with other stuff at the moment, maybe will be able to do something in a couple of days. Well, if you were freaking busy, then don't sequester the pictures away in the ivory tower {insert not nice word here}. And of course, nice guy Pauly takes it on the chin, and says to the eager crowds forming at his desk - I will bring in the first set tomorrow.

So tonight I have pulled the photos out of my REAL photo album, to put in another say temporary album, unless I do want to go all CSI fingerprints on it all, and to become the second class set of prints. All because I am too nice a guy to demand that first temporary album back, when Ivory Tower Land doesn't need to have it on hand for at least two days.

Am too busy doing real work or trying to or stressing about it to go up a few floors at High Noon LOL. And I am so angry about it all, for some reason, it's just been one of those annoying frustrating days for the most part. Am not even in good or even neutral enough of a mood to stick around online much tonight...

Will have a good rest and will be a new day tomorrow.
