    It's a time-honoured annual tradition. 4 hours of corporate bullshit followed by 4 hours supposedly nursing 2 drinks tickets in the baking sun. The usually shunned non-drinkers in the group become unusually popular, and a fairly rabid black market ensues.

    Tomorrow it's via Microsoft Teams. I think the drinking might start a little earlier than usual. Like 4 hours earlier.

    I was only joking

          Do they use those preprinted rolls of tickets? If so, you can buy an entire roll fof a few bucks, and hand out multiple tickets to everyone you know. You'll be very popular.

          Don't ask me how I know this.

            They change the bloody things every year, however a certain Quality Manager does tend to ingratiate himself with the lower orders in this manner.

              Had the meeting. Still sober.

              One of the interesting things about the meeting is finding out what we insure.

              Anybody remember this? (NSFW language, as if anybody's at work)

              Yeah, you guessed it. Still, it could be worse - last year it was a Jack Daniel's distillery.

                On the bright side, it's Avocado Day.

                So, there's that.

                Please love yourself.
