My Moopy Nightmare Monday

[Suomi]

Had a nightmare I was being chased by a giant % sign. I reached for a hand, but only one hand stretched out for me.

 

[Mats]

was it your own again?

 

[Mats]

turns out it's more likely to get hit by a car than be elected third admin

This joke was getting old but you've just breathed new life into it.

 

[Dark Carnival]

Oh DC you little shit, why do you have to go and complicate Mondays for yourself like this?

 

[Iguana]

Oh DC you little shit, why do you have to go and complicate Mondays for yourself like this?

Have you double booked two guys? I know how you hate group fun

 

[Lucille]

Traaaaaaveling, traaaaaaaaveling.

 

[Iguana]

Traaaaaaveling, traaaaaaaaveling.

Let's get unconscious, Lucy
Let's get unconscious

 

[Lucille]

Having spent the weekend substance free I’d assumed I’d BOUNCE out of bed this morning, but I’m still in it.

 

[Lucille]

Actually should get a move on as the bus to work takes a fucking hour nowadays.

 

[ButterTart]

I woke up late so now I won't be in work until gone 9. I was considering calling in sick today, so they should feel grateful to have me AT ALL.

 

[Mats]

Oh DC you little shit, why do you have to go and complicate Mondays for yourself like this?

what's up honey, are you not up for the bj anymore?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I woke up late so now I won't be in work until gone 9. I was considering calling in sick today, so they should feel grateful to have me AT ALL.

Tell you then you have a vexillological condition and can't make it in.

 

[lolly]

It's a fucker, isn't it? A commute time slashed in half was the best bit of lockdown.

Now we've lost that, while still having most of the shit bits.

 

[Iguana]

what's up honey, are you not up for the bj anymore?

@Mats is DC's trusty bottom??

 

[L. Põldvere]

I fell over in the street and walked into a doorframe yesterday and was seeing double for most of the evening, hence some very strange typing at times which I think I managed to correct

THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS PLEasE

Oh my! Are you feeling okay today?

 

[L. Põldvere]

Oh my! Are you feeling okay today?

Bit on the wobbly side. Not dead yet though

 

[lolly]

Oh shit, this is like me dealing with my mother last week.

Should I run through her concussion checklist with you?

 

[Iguana]

Bit on the wobbly side. Not dead yet though

Could it be a concussion? Do we have a doctor in the house?

 

[Iguana]

Dr @lolly on the case!

 

[jivafox]

Oh Su not a FALL! :emoji_scream:

Go careful. If you need to go sick, do it. Your wellbeing is the most important thing here.

I feel we're in similar positions, and I haven't handled it at all well.

 

[Lucille]

Oh come on, the only thing she fell into was a crate of off brand BAILEYS.

 

[Diddy]

Tell you then you have a vexillological condition and can't make it in.

yeah do this, and if they work it out you can say “Did you say FAG how DARE YOU” and maybe they’ll panic

 

[SDF]

I had a rough sleep last night

 

[octophone]

Ugh. Tired. Demotivated. Manager back from hols and doing her usual "only talk to the same two people" thing.

Still, TUSK starts tonight. :emoji_dancer:

Which means I won't be here much for a fortnight.

 

[ButterTart]

How have you been managing? I’ve just had a bit of a meltdown in the kitchen because I’ve checked my diary for the day and it’s a load of pointless face to face appointments that have been booked in to satisfy figures and not because they’re actually needed. Our well-being matters less than ticking boxes, and that’s a difficult thing to come to terms with.

 

[L. Põldvere]

Oh Su not a FALL! :emoji_scream:

Yes, I’ll be pencilling in some attention-seeking SLIPS AND TRIPS later this week

 

[Rita]

I am waiting on Vera coming so I have an excuse to open the WINE. Not that she will probably partake as she will be driving but I may persuade her to get a taxi or she can watch me drink it as it was already arranged yesterday for my daughters boyfriend to take and collect the young man from school.

:emoji_nail_care:

 

[L. Põldvere]

Oh God I KEEP walking into door frames and nearly fell over again on the way back from Lidl, where I was tempted to molest someone with a dead cert hairy back

 

[L. Põldvere]

Can someone order me a FAT HAIRY CARER please

 

[Lucille]

I’m feeling like a career change, quite tempted to become Rita’s cleaner.

 

[Lucille]

Vera doesn’t sound like she has LONG LEFT.

 

[Tisch]

It all sounds shit @ButterTart don't know what to say. I can offer a (manly str8 masc) hug!

Not well, truth be told. I'm planning some time out.

 

[Lucille]

Let’s all become Rita’s household staff!

 

[ButterTart]

As in sick leave or are you looking to move elsewhere? Hopefully your bosses are supportive - in a period as stressful as this year has been it’s perfectly understandable to need some time out.

 

[L. Põldvere]

We can all live in the caravan on her ESTATE and eat STEWS

BAGSY I’M ON HOOVER DUTIES

Sick leave. I have to acknowledge that I've burned out. The warning signs have been there probably since the end of July.

I stand by everything I've said and I'm not going to apologise for it as it would be disingenuous - they are honest feelings. But the strength of my reactions in the last two weeks is undoubtedly symptomatic of burn out.
