New
week, actually started yesterday but it was a holiday for us so the working week starts today - we only have work until Thursday morning and then I fly to Malta along with nearly all my Maltese colleagues to vote in the European Parliament elections. We have a direct flight - finally!!!! So short week - quite sick and only came to work because I did not want to take a sick leave after a long weekend. But my head is feeling extremely heavy - might take tomorrow although I have a course I do not want to miss. We'll see. This weekend I bought a computer table and a wardrobe - you have to set them up yourself and I managed to do the computer table and most of the wardrobe. Felt so good about myself!!!
Sent an email to my boss about going on a system called flexitime - he doesn't approve it usually and it is a really good system whereby one works 15 hours extra in a month and can take an extra 2 free days the following months. We are 3 units of our language - the head of units of the 2 other units approve it but ours does not and it's like giving up on around 20 hours extra free days in the year. So I sent him an email with an official request which people will define as daring and bold because the fact that he does not approve it is like this known secret which prevents anyone from even applying. We'll see.
Food wise - not too bad but I'm sick and do not feel like eating much. Have to stay until 6pm today which is more than 4 hours away and I'm feeling so tired and without energy.....I'll sleep early this evening and then we'll see tomorrow.
Good day my friends.
