Copying all the emails I sent to customers last week into various customer PST folders in a shared inbox
Learn VBA; automate repetitive, boring tasks.
Setting up a IPTV system for a popular financial news channels new HK offices, not done it in a while but since I used to work for the IPTV manufacturer I volunteered, good to get back on the tools...and spending time on STW.
I'm doing a business case ...
I'm making various maps of sales data by transport time to nearby cities to try and highlight that intuition is a terrible way to make a decision as to where to site new stores.
Listing drawings that our tender is based on in our offer letter, there are thousands but usually change by one digit in each case.
getting rid of fake Gas Monkey Garage T-Shirts on Ebay redbubble zazzle etc ....never ending....
Just gonna have some lunch, but then it'll be adding drainage to highway longsections for a housing development.
Fighting jetlag in a conference. One of those days when I have to be there, but have no involvement all day.
Might be a struggle.
Completing multi-page customer review reports, I fear I might have just crossed the threshold when you spend more time telling people what you've done, rather than doing it - but hey ho, every job I've ever had gets to this point in the end.
im 'new business developing' today...
I'm drawing an isometric projection of a proposed mixed use development.
I have just installed Freeradius Radius Server on an archaic Ubuntu 10.04 machine as part of a proof of concept. Amazed it actually worked with only a few issues which Google solved for me....
Might be a struggle.
Just think of all the commission on those paper clips - that will keep you going!
reviewing technical papers on the equivalency of various sunscreen water resistance polymers.
And wondering what to have for lunch.
I am preparing a course for tomorrow in Dundee botanic gardens. 8)
I am writing a 30mins presentation on implementation of risk / benefit in schools/nurseries/play schemes for all the Scottish local authority H&S officers next week... 😯
Doing emails and having a quick browse at STW. Just south of Greenland, 554mph, 38,000ft. No escape from email ever now 🙁

There's now a professional guitarist in the next room widdling away making short product demos of a bunch of our new gear. This is breathtakingly irritating for me so god only knows what it's like for the companies in the offices above and below ours.
Doing nothing 🙁 can't stand being idle at work. Still, all this will change tomorrow when the Big Project kicks off
Just finished fitting a flameless explosion filter to our wheat transfer dust collector.
Basically a big red box with stainless gauze & a pressure sensing membrane that will be £15,000 please 😕
Little bit bored, looking at STW and changing to an internal email or document to look busy now and then, but only because I'm waiting for our CNC router to be sorted out so we can start cutting stuff on it, keeps tripping the main board, every now and then I go and play on our CNC lathe to try and get that working too - we've only just had some training on it and it's a bit of a headache to get it working properly, I'm quicker on the manual lathe at the moment ... coffee time I think 🙂

We had one like this at my work, a massive change of OS for a lot of users and what did management choose to call it? the 'RBP' ...the Really Big Project.... I kid ye not.
I've been helping a customer set our product up ready to get their customers across on to it. Now doing a little bit of testing on our next product release this afternoon once the upgrade repo is fixed.
Preparing to teach kids to ski. Took a day off to come and work instructing. Makes me happy!
Now warming my stones whilst typing by straddling an electric heater.
I really haven't done much today...
Opening night of a Fine Art Exhibition tonight. I have been managing 36 artists who have produced 61 paintings. The exhibitions runs for two weeks and then we move it to Milan.
I hovered out the MRI. Which, with a metal hoover, is actually more awkward than you'd think - long extension schnozel is needed.
Finding and quantifying metallic inclusions in a cobalt alloy, after that I'm transferring them into our SEM so that I can re-find the inclusions and do some chemical analysis.
Been asked by management to write and set up profile page ... what profile?
ZM is just ZM so why do they want my profile for? 🙄
trying to get my head around seo, my online shop needs more visitors 🙁
Converting data that we deliberately set up to be paperless and incredibly hard/long winded to make paper copies of into...
Papercopies..
Then converting to a PDF to send off-site.
because metadata
:grump:
Tiling.
Just got here but last night I was making sure 2 prisoners didn't commit suicide. (along with keeping an eye on 64 others who probably wouldn't) Does that count?
Week off, so I can't comment, but...... a whole bloody week of DIY. Joy! And maybe a ride or two.
I have until the weekend to provide a view of UK vs Overseas operational costs and effectiveness, strangely CBA though.
This morning I met a lovely 93yr old who told me she wants to live till she's 94 so she can see the statue/plaque that's going to be erected in honour of all the ladies like her her worked in the steel works during WW2. Hopefully the blood in her pee is just a uti and not bladder cancer and her wish will come true.
Lunchtime visit to an 87yr old bloke with a dense stroke and no larynx who is cared for at home brilliantly by his son.
Tonight I had to ring a young girl up and tell her she's go campylobacter in her stool. Couple of case conference reports on children in need to be done before home time, and about a million coughs and colds.
Love my job. 🙂
Two posts back to back that should be shown to all kids making career choices.

Construction project risk register..... zzzzzzzz
Argued with subcontractors about program and snagging all morning, 30 miles on my new (to me) Defy with a stop at Stan's bike shack for a latte and a salted caramel brownie in the avo. I've had worse Mondays.
Is firewood still niche?
Delivered some of this seasons.
Split some of next seasons.
Hedging stakes DezB?
Market has dropped here due to a change in the farm agri' schemes, can't say I miss cutting thousands each winter in the pishing rain.

Yeah, just doing some clearing up, can imagine it wouldnt be fun in bad weather. Still better than sat in an office (for now)
Swapping a bottle of wine for a kilo of coffee beans. Got to love the barter system.
Currently attempting to setup a report template for small scale site investigations in the Perth area. After that I shall be mucking about with Borrow assessment spreadsheets trying to blend crap dirt into good dirt and still be usable for building rail embankments with. Both of these are astonishingly dull which is why i'm on Singletrack and thinking about the Defy I might buy on Saturday.
Been nurse, housemaid, servant to missus post op.
At work today I'll be splitting some palettes for sustainable wood to reuse. Then burning some soil for environmental science.
Writing lists for the weekend assuming I can leave mrs100th.
