Last for this evening 🤓

[Poppy-poppy]

Can I have my certificate now please because I have been all through everyone of these symptoms and come out the other end mangled and still fighting to survive.

[Shadows-walker in reply to Poppy-poppy]

I research and see what I can come up with as long as I can have one too 🤓

[Hidden in reply to Shadows-walker]

Me three please, although maybe I don't count as I still work

[Annunnaki in reply to Hidden]

Me four please

[Hidden in reply to Annunnaki]

That's it, there should be a certificate for every year we all battle fibro. 25 years for some could mean a silver medal

[Hidden]

A big thank you to fibro again

[Betty67]

Yes, have all but one.

[Hidden in reply to Betty67]

Being inquisitive, I wonder which one you decided you don't want

[Shadows-walker in reply to Hidden]

I don't want any 😫

[Hidden in reply to Shadows-walker]

Pity we don't seem to have any choice in the matter.......oh, why don't we just give them away

[Shadows-walker in reply to Hidden]

Seems like a good idea 😀

[Hidden in reply to Shadows-walker]

Do you have anyone in mind? Not sure I know anyone I dislike that much

[Shadows-walker in reply to Hidden]

Well there's my exs bit on the side and Betty's exs bit of the moment. Just a thought !

[Hidden in reply to Shadows-walker]

Go for it!

[Betty67 in reply to Hidden]

No there is one I would accept, losing weight, just to a healthy weight mind you. I gained a lot of weight when I stopped being active.

[Hidden in reply to Betty67]

That is my problem at the minute. Just can't get active enough at times and to eat only enough for my activity is nigh on impossible. I like food

[Shadows-walker in reply to Hidden]

I like food but chocolate I love 😖

[Hidden in reply to Shadows-walker]

Snap!

[Shadows-walker in reply to Hidden]

Kindred spirits 🤗🤗

[Hidden in reply to Shadows-walker]

This kindred spirit is heading to bed. Catch you tomorrow

[Shadows-walker in reply to Hidden]

Nite nite X

[fenbadger]

That reminds me. I got the AWOL thing sorted. Down side is they may now be on their guard.

[Shadows-walker in reply to fenbadger]

Tell us more ?

[fenbadger in reply to Shadows-walker]

when I delved into it the absence is marked as the dates I was off, not weekends. The sums finally added up. (so why did they say otherwise?)

Wish I knew more. I've just tried to book some leave on line. I was told to rescind it and fill out a form. Crazy. A world respected organisation in computing and we're still messing about with paper forms.

[Hidden in reply to fenbadger]

Is it possible its just you and they want paper and signatures or us that me being overly suspicious?

[fenbadger in reply to Hidden]

What I cant understand is the request is still approved by a human. I don't think you're overly suspicious. I'm thinking the same. It's a control thing. Our small team has to do things differently to the rest of the organisation. Just rings alarm bells for me.

[Shadows-walker in reply to fenbadger]

Does your overall boss have a power trip going on , and he is computer literate?

[fenbadger in reply to Shadows-walker]

I think yes and yes. Or the first is ignorance and thoughtlessness.

[Shadows-walker in reply to fenbadger]

Probably all 4 ,watch your back 😕

[fenbadger in reply to Shadows-walker]

I think so too

[fenbadger in reply to Hidden]

paper and signature is irrelevant. Do it electronically and its through my log in and password so they have a "signature". Why only our little team?

[Hidden in reply to fenbadger]

Does seem strange.

My boss is complaining about lack of money and how they may have to close the doors. All because it is coming up to Christmas and they don't want to pay out any bonuses......annoyingly is the fact that I have just saved them several thousand pounds this year and increased the fee they collect for part of a job I do. No sense to their thinking.

Same as your situation, no sense to it!

[fenbadger in reply to Hidden]

nowt so queer as (business) folk

[Shadows-walker in reply to fenbadger]

These big companies are a law unto themselves, and the absence is strange you'll have to delve more. More digging with those sharp claws old bean ⛏⛏⛏⛏

[Regnofibro1]

Good one!!

[TheAuthor]

I really like this one, thanks for sharing x
