Seating arrangements - oh damn

My computer chair has just about died. It has a terminal fracture of the spindal bracket - a very real and incredibly nasty condition. It is beyond recussitation. It wobbles ( Read more... )

As someone who has 3 full days of meetings coming up later this month, I fully sympathize.

When it gets really bad, let your eyes glaze over and think of porn.

Excellent advice. I think this should be everyone's default setting.

I am fortunate to only have to attend one of these days (full explanation to Jones, below), and the first day at that. Hopefully everyone else will be all perky for the first day.

What's the meeting for?

It's the Regional Managers of the Diploma Programme's coming together (yes that's the porn suggestion skewing my thinking there) for a discussion of ( think) 'the way to go'. One comes from South American, one from North America, one representing Asia and the Pacific and the other is local, from Cardiff. It's the first day of a three day affair (porn again), though the other two days the participants rise (and again) to fifteen (there will be seven of us in total tomorrow). I am the lucky one who gets to minute the whole proceedings tomorrow, much to the relief of the person who is doing Friday and Saturday (who thought she was going to have to do it).

(I'm loving the brackets!)

Oooh, x-rated minutes!

Oh Ouch! Good luck with the meetings.

And remember, there are over 1001 ways to use duct tape to hold you over until you can afford a new computer chair...Duct tape is why we still have an oscillating fan at work for when the Air Conditioning is busted...

I had a computer chair once. I wanked on it too hard leant back on it one day and it just snapped. I'm rather glad I didn't impale myself on it, but yes. I had $200, and I spent the whole lot on a really really comfy chair, yay! Then I had to get my sister to put it together cause I'm a n00b. But good chairs are good. Get a new one!
