BAD NEWS: Pour moi at least...

My fucking boss has decided that a laptop isn't
"appropriate" for my work....

He really doesn't realise exactly how much extra shit he got
out of me for that little benefit....

Still...plnty more jobs out there...and I'm sick of being a
creative person working with accountants....

I'd wish a slow death on him but I guess he's already living
it....

undecided...

Found a good job yesterday that'll suit me down to the
ground....so that's the aim at the moment....

Before I go, of course, I'll ensure that one or 2 or 58,000
very obscure params are set in some very tech software they
rely on....

As Joni M. said...

"You don't know what you got til it's gone..."....

I'm not an evil guy but when lines are crossed in this way,
then it would be spineless to sit back and take it....

If you feel constrained in your job and there's a way out,
take it. And leaving a lil pressie for the ungrateful twats
sounds like a good idea.

i know the feeling jand, it is not justifiable for me to
have a laptop even though i dont get any time for training
and personnal developement, i work as a designer and i am
only allowed to work at my workstation at work. If i have a
tight deadline i have to be here, if i had a laptop the work
i could get done at home would be unbelievable. fuck em.

They don't know their arse from their elbow and I'm a clever
fucker so whatever revenge (an ugly word but deserved) will
be as subtle but disabling as possible....

Time to dig out some of me old tech underground
mates....they owe me a few favours....

That which doesn't kill us, makes us stronger (and those who
attempt the kill are gonna find out exactly how
strong...)...I believe it was a tiny flea that wiped out
Europe during the Plague; an image I like to keep in
mind....

Thanks for the words of advice/support, people....

(don't worry, people...I'm smiling regardless...not gonna
let the fuckers grind me down...)....

yeah, go on if you feel that's the right thing to do. Just
bear in mind: vengeance is a meal best served cold.
