I HAVE CHOCOLATES!!!!

I had completely forgotten that I am a member of the "Chocolate Tasting Club" because I'd asked them to change me to receiving boxes once every 3/4 months instead of every 1.

YUMMY.
I was going to try and save some of these for my visit down south - I don't honestly think I have a chance in hell :) How good do these sound? Latte Machiatto, Mango Sorbet (Oh so good), Pear Parfait, Mocha Biscuit, Enrobed Turkish Delight, Paline 946, "Jamaica" (White Rum Truffle) and "Goodness" :)

Best throw some money at them soon...
It's bonus month next month :)
Not that we'll be getting much in the way of a bonus this time :( Our targets were set unrealistically high and taken away from being individual bonusses. I think we're looking at about 2.5% right now. If my calculations are correct that comes out at under £200 - before tax. Considering in the 6mths previously, I was banking £120 a month.......

It's not all bad news - as of 1st Oct it's going back to personal. Our targets are a lot higher than previously, though. 15% wrap (after call work - time to write notes and things), 5% customer hold time (never anywhere near that anyhow), 10% outbound calling time, and if you don't meet your targets for 1mth you get a file note ("for training and coaching purposes"), for the 2nd month you get a meeting with your t/m and ops manager, and if you don't make it for the 3rd month you are on a stage 1 disciplinary.

This is a bad thing, means you are on 50% bonus, and are effectively barred from any movement within the company for a further 6mths.

Enough about work, I think I'm going to get into the tub and soak myself, play some massive attack very loudly, and read some more Artemis Fowl.
