Hi - I’m back!!! Sorry for the blog absence but it’s taken me a while to get me main PC up and running again. Yes it could have been quicker but I was getting by with an old one and my work one. I did post a bit from the old one but obviously I couldn’t use a work machine for personal stuff - I’ve attended company trainign that explains that any such use is really theft.

Of course, like most stuff with my company that is a one way street. So much so in fact that although I mustn’t use their kit for anything but work I am no longer to be reimbersed for my home Internet access or second phone line. This is despite the fact I work exclusively from home, couldn’t work without the net, have to pay for a top line service as I down load megs of data on a regullar basis and am expected to spend 3 hours at a time on company calls. As long as I type in a 14 digit key I won’t be charged for the calls so that’s OK. Just a shame if anyone else in the house wants to use the phone eh?

I suspect I could just not do any work, presumably they couldn’t sack me as they haven’t given me the means to do the work. However, I’m not ready for redundancy so I guess I’ve got to cough up.
