Yes that includes comfort breaks! Thanks for the birthday wishes. Too be honest I've now got the end of year blues. I only have 2 weeks left in the office including this week given holidays and courses and I can't wait for them to be over. I had a really depressing performance review with my manager last week where he stated that I hadn't done enough varied work to go for my next promotion boarding as I stand now. Trouble is that what I work on is controlled by my manager so I'm in a bit of a catch 22. I can't really do anything to 'fix' it apart from nag my manager to transfer me onto another project which is not realistically going to happen. I think there is a pretty good chance that I am the last person from my graduate intake to go up a grade which is mucho depressing. Hopefully next year will be better - there may even be a change in job role which could be a good thing or a bad thing. I really need this MSc to be finished as well. I'm starting to get to the 'I've had enough' point and there's still at least 9 months to go of hard work.
Oh well, that's my sob story ;-) Back to the grind.... too much (company) work to do and not enough time to do it! ;-)
