It looks like the boss is coming back at the end of this week, so I’ll be able to cut back my work hours. Yay. Unfortunately, this period of job satisfaction is going to be short-lived because Mr W has just handed in his resignation. Since he works the same hours as the boss, I’ll be covering for him instead until they hire someone new. Dammit. And then I’ll have to put up with someone new. Double dammit.

Mr. W is going to work at M&M Electrical as a storeman, which will be good for him because he’ll get more pay. He’s got two kids, and while the bottle-o pay is OK for me, I’m sure he could use the extra. The new job also gets him some free footy tickets, which he might like.* On the whole, a smart move.

J. (who has been very conspicuously trying to steal Mr. W’s job for ages) doesn’t know what’s going on yet, but I’d like to see the look on his face when he finds out. I think Mr. W wants to tell him in private though, so I’ll probably have to watch it on the store surveillance tapes.

*Real men like football, I think.
