I have been a bit quiet on the blogging front lately, this is due to the huge ever so small crisis I am currently going through 
I am having a crisis of faith, nothing to do with religion, in myself really, in my own abilities, it is bad enough that my face doesn't fit at work and that promotion has gone to someone many years younger that while she is a brown noser and telltale hard worker, knows nothing about the work that I do (yet again) and the second one to a total stranger from outside the company that not only doesnt know the work that I do, she doesnt know the work any of us do!! I am beginning to wonder if any of the bosses have any sense at all
When I asked 'Lady Boss' if she thought that I should apply for the job her words were "If I were you I would check the criteria and if you think you might fit then do so" this from someone that was supposedly a friend(ish) and was at one time a lowly manager and got where she is simply by being a 'yes' person. The lady whose shoes she has filled was ousted because she had the guts to stand up for us the workers.
See I know I should look for a new job, but I dont have bus fares and I dont have to travel for ages to get there, and what about my clients, who I feel I am failing miserably at the moment as I dont have the time to do all that I should due to the fact that there is not enough staff and they think they can get away with everyone doing everything for the same pay and getting it right, not a chance! 
And then there is my studies, up to now I have been lucky, I have had good tutors who have explained things if I have got it wrong, have had the patience to show me how and where etc, this is how you learn to get it right, yes?
This one doesnt think so, this tutor has downgraded every assignment, not one has been in the right format, though I have changed the format each time at the Tutors bidding, nothing is right, but all I get are terse little comments throughout the assignment and then a couple of short sentences of overall evaluation. If it is wrong show me where! And why! I may just scrape a pass, and that is nowhere near good enuogh for me
Oh Pah and Humbug what a boring dismal post, see this is why I have been staying away 
Still have a good day all
