It starts raining as I get off the train and stops when I get to the office. It doesn't really but it sounds like a better story than 'I get wet on the way into the office'!
I have put together a plan for refurbishing our Post Room and Print Room which have both been overlooked in the refurbishment. I have to say that the original remit I was given did not include these areas in the project. The ear-bashing I have received from these people and their managers is unbelievable. Completely outside of my hands I have asked them to take it up elsewhere but they're too scared to. I've tried to save some of my budget to accommodate them and it looks like I might be successful. I've drawn up a plan for doing this area. I meet with Steve to figure out how we can d this and the best time to do it. We thrash it out and i put a pln together.
I take Chris, my Director who has just come back from his scuba-diving holiday, on a Walkabout of the second floor. Its looking good and he's impressed. I then have a chat with the ICT guys about their office space as we need to order furniture for them. I ge a spec from them and lodge requirements with my furniture lady! More on that in future.
I have a meeting in Chelmsford and pop over to that. Meet with my old mate Paul for a couple of beers on the way back. He's 64 and just applied for a temporary promotion into a maternity cover job. Good for him. We make plans to meet up with wives on weeks in future. We should really get them to sort that out as we would be happy to just meet for beer and they would enjoy the food bit more!
