    My day without power

    Bloody hell. After a poor night, being woken by a badly coughing three-year-old, the last thing I needed was the sort of day I had at work today. First person: Can you get this job done for me today?
    Second person: I need this doing today, can you sort it out please?
    Person three: This needs doing urgently - prioritise
    First person (again): Have you done that yet? I need this doing now
    Fourth person: If you've got time, can you fit this in? (I should have said no, but she's nice)
    etc
    etc
    etc

    And the problem is, they're all bigger than me (institutionally, if not physically), so I can't just tell them to piss off or find someone else to do it. I do explain that I'm kind of busy, but it appears that I'm the only person with the requisite skills (no, I don't believe it either) or the relevant online access to be able to do all these menial, labour-intensive, boring tasks that others choose to delegate my way.

    And to cap it all we've just found out that our team is to be restructured (well, it has been almost six months since our last restructuring, so it's overdue) and about 50% of my job is probably going to go west (so I'll probably end up in Witney or somewhere).

    And as we know, that killed Bobby Brown's career.
