Like a towering behemoth standing at the top of the week and laughing in a magnificently foreboding sense, Monday arrives and pisses all over Tuesday and Wednesday, not even bothering to shake.

My principal moans today involve outsourcing to India..ugghhh..cheap labor and people whose grasp of English is a bit slippery and a culture that promotes hegemony and a strict caste system really don't go down too well in a modern customer service based environment.


Highlights today? I have a bunch of stuff loaded onto my mp3 player which is going great and I got Annette and Paul's system set up yesterday without any need for proprietal software- instead just using Music Match Jukebox and K-lite, they now have a fully interactive environment to download music on cd into mp3 format to send to their mp3 player and K-lite to p2p any files they want in mp3 format as well.

I have the last episode of Enterprise season III to watch also- season III has been superb, gripping, much better written overall and with excellent ensemble acting- avoiding all the usual Star Trek pitfalls and instead delivering a tight exciting drama show.

Then I have the last bit of Angel Season II to watch and onto Season III; it's all about controlling what you want to watch and when you want to watch it.

Blink. Slow day moving. Sitting at my work cubicle, drinking a lucozade energy drink that is making me tired. Customers dribbling in on my phone extension like drunks crossing a road. Weeekend sounds good. It's quite slow overall right now but hopefully a couple of good orders will slip in over the next 6 hours and balance the scales out somewhat.

Watching the last disc on Angel season one DVD- some very good episodes but the main thing that I'm enjoying is the excellent arc with Wolfram & Hart and some very striking actors such as the guy who plays LIndsey MacDonald and his immediate boss in W & R.
