- I committed a fairly major cockup on Monday. My boss insists it doesn't matter, and threatened to start calling me 'Dobby' if I didn't stop beating myself up about it, but I still think it's not good enough.
- I put in a request for training earlier this week, and the company running it rang us to say that the course I was interested in wasn't going ahead due to lack of participants but they'd be willing to run it in-house, just for me, next week. So suddenly I face spending Monday through Wednesday having one-to-one MySQL training in a spare office. I've spoken to the trainer bloke on the phone and he seems a nice enough guy, but I'm still rather dreading the experience. (And he might have bad breath. You can't tell on the phone.)
- Lovely Gay Canadian Kevin is leaving us! He looks like Michael Stipe out of R.E.M. and bakes us fabulous cakes. He will be sorely missed.
