What a week...
2005-Jul-09, Saturday 20:36Firstly, for those in London; glad you know you're all OK, the MD has told me to try and take next Friday afternoon off, so I might be up for the weekend again. I found this to be appropriate.
Well, we got through last Sunday (680 students in beds) and it looks like I'll get through this weekend as well (791 students in beds).
That would make it the first July in 5 years that the person doing my job has succesfully managed to house everyone. I've even managed to get today off.
Avarage 12 hour days, and mostly finished at 10pm until last night when ewe finished at 6.30pm and went to the pub. My team are stars, the rest of the office that helped out were a godsend, and the MD was acutally useful and helpful, and coordinated a lot of effort.
Odds of me getting credit for all the plans working? Small. But at least I can be pleased with myself.
Went shopping today; bought a book (only one, I restrained myself), H2G2 pts 4&5 on CD and, well, some underwear. Laundry tends to get sidelined when you've barely time to sleep...
I rule!
