It looks like a new list has been released for the “safe” sites work lets us access in our lunchhour as I couldn’t get to the IJDb, googlemail, amazon or this site until two minutes ago. That coupled with the fact that HR don’t want to pay me for more than 2 days of compassionate leave (the standard amount) despite the fact that my managing director wants to authorise all of it, leaves me in no doubt that I will not renew my contract come the end of January. I may leave before that to manage my grandmother’s estate (one of the benefits of being on a two-week notice period).

My grandmother’s funeral will be next week, on my sister’s birthday.
