The exhibitionist in me!

Well the Germans have big bellies and wear leather pants etc.

Again I came to work with my zip undone on the underground!
so it must be the exhibitionist in me

Spurs were thumped!

I couldn't get to see the game here in Munich-thank goodness.
Down to 10 men after 15 minutes !!! What a surprise again ref goes the way of the local Spanish side. Not really biased are they?
I should have had a bet cos I said it would be 4-0

Fräulein in underground

7.30 this morning a Fräulein gets on the train and sits next to me. She was about 55-60.
Obviously been out during the night as I had to endure stale alcohol and the smell of it coming out of her skin.
Not a good morning !!

Bulldog spirit

My project is going no where!
I have NO resources and neither the hardware to complete the project or even start testing.
So I asked the Big boss for a meeting about it.
He sends me an invitation for 6pm tonight.
On the basis that I can do fuck all until I have these, I will have to sit around all day doing bugger all.
Oh well if they want to pay me to do that fine.
He may have thought that I wouldn't be bothered to wait till then.
He obviously, doesn't know me.

Lost the final again

My son's team lost their last final yesterday 4-0.
The other team were much better organized again and their coaches were good and directed them from the line.

Our's stood there not doing much at all except make the wrong substitutions!
The odd thing was that the coach seemed to distance himself from the boys.
He didn't warm them up and at half time came out alone and after the match went off and played football with his son.
Smells a bit fishy to me!
Anyway, the boys enjoyed themselves which is what matters.
The pitch was a much better one than the last final a few weeks ago.

They all complained about the plastic trophies the league gave.
One boy managed to undo his one about 2 minutes after he got it and of course couldn't get it together again.

After the match we had a little lunch laid on and the boys Well you guessed it, went and played football!!!

Frustration

I was asked yesterday how I would test Stochastical financial risk models for certain Var Calculations and transactions.
I was told that it hadn't been thought of before.

This morning after I decided to wake up I thought of a logical way of doing it.
So I typed it up and sent ti to the guy who has developed the calculation tool.

Now he writes back telling me it doesn't work that way at the bank and I should wait for a guy who has been on holiday and ask him how to do it.

So why say they hadn't thought of it. Apparently, they haven't done the testing for this before, but I know fuck all!!!!

Sounded as if I did.
