Say Cheese
So I was trying out my new camera in the garden today and not wanting to sound like I'm blowing my own trumpet but I think they came out looking pretty good. I have no delusions of a career in photography but I would appreciate any opinions on my pictures.

You have no idea how difficult it is taking a picture of a butterfly.

It was Rich's last day at work the other day now he's off to Wakefield I'm pleased for him but I'm going to miss the guy, he was the only person at work that I could actually talk to about music. So now it's me and Dangerous left to deal with Ratfink which means it's just going to be me on my own really since Ratfink keeps putting Dangerous in the bakery since he's a trained baker. The whole situation just makes me laugh really everytime I start to think Ratfink might actually be alright he does something else that makes me think he's a complete tool. The ongoing complete lack of communication between the managers is a constant source of grief and amusement too, with the ongoing scheme to "Make Sainsburys Great Again" and the whole mystery customer thing, I got a roasting off one of the managers the other day who shall be refered to as Bitchqueen for talking to someone after they made an announcement for checkout standbys, all those announcements you hear when you're in the supermarket well they usually mean something but no one listens to them anyway including the staff. Personally I can't last more than an hour on a checkout any longer and my brain freezes up, the line hypnosis kicks in after a while and you really don't pay attention to the people you're serving at all, it's like trying to remember the people that were on the bus with you coming home you just don't pay attention to them. Then every so often something comes along that breaks up the monotony like something with a security tag on that you have to take off but you can't remember how to since it's ages since you had to do it, so you stand there fumbling with it while the customer just stares at you with this look of sheer contempt and you really feel like looking them right in the eye and just saying "You fucking do it then!". A bakery belonging to one of our suppliers burnt down the other week to the ground so we had to put these signs explaining the situation it was quite funny hearing people moan about it "bloody fire etc,etc." Half the people I know at work are going on holiday so the next few weeks are going to be pretty boring I think, at least I won't have to deal with the" bullshit insecure male syndrome" as I call it, most of the girls I know aren't single so this means they have insecure boyfriends that get really paranoid whenever I'm mentioned like I'm some sort of destroyer of relationships which I most distinctly aren't, because I flirt a bit and I say funny stuff, I must be the only guy who thinks you can have girls/women as friends and not have to have sex with them, I must be the only person who knows what a platonic relationship is, just because I acknowledge someone's good looking it doesn't mean I want to fuck their brains out.
