I got my first ever music band related t-shirt today !
It's the "Free cheese" one from here: scroobiuspip.co.uk/store/
I'm having another OH WOE IS ME, MY LIFE IS A CURSE day today, thrown up twice already. I think I hate my guts as much as my guts hates me.
And I've got the most ambigious client ever who keeps on changing their terminology around, he says 'customers' to mean 'shops', 'users' to mean 'employees' then throws in thing like Regional Manager and Area Manager and Retail Manager at seemingly random. Whenever I've asked them about it, their MD says things like "You should know this after 7 months" 'cus the company I work for have been with them for 7 months when I've only been with the client for 3 weeks. And their buisness model is super confusing. And we sent out a scope document on what we were going to do , that they all signed and agreed too, but there is stuff missing from there and they're reffering to emails that got sent back'n'forth 100s of times.
It's like talking to someone who is decorating a house, where you speek to them 100s of times about all sorts of things, and then when the quote comes in on what they want, they sign it and agree, but then complain when stuff that was talked about (and refuted at some points)... they should have said it was missing from the quote.
And I've told them like 6 times that I can't do minor upgrades while this major one is going on 'cus of the way codebases work (ie, I could do it, but it would get over written, and I'd have to do it again), I've said this in many ways. And they're complaining that little updates haven't happened since I started this big upgrade.
And their MD is like the girl on Devil Wears Prada throwing around words like incompetancy
Carling doesn't make dull blog like OH WOE IS ME posts, but if they did, it would probably be better than this one.
HOWEVER, however,

Although wanking and smoking crack are things to be proud of, obviously.

Yeah she could start off by mentioning how hideously fat she is, quick mention about her failed marriage, and then into the real meat of her cloak of elven invisibility that's really a blanket from oxfam and her fixation with rubber swords
rubber

The swords are rubber?
It would be a more effective cull if they were real.

Music is naught to do with cheeses
I know not why you think that's so.
Such thoughts confuse the baby Jesus
And one as great as he should know.
If music is the food of love
Well, I myself prefer the brie
Others are moved by Scroobius Pip
But cheddar is the thing for me.
O give me a wedge of camembert
And half a pack of Boursin light
And I will proudly then declare
That cheese must be the heart's delight.

English sonnet rhyming scheme.
Hope that's okay and you didn't want Italian rhyming scheme.

I would've made it less cheesy but I couldn't think of anything to rhyme with "Philidelphia".

Tell them their demands mean you'll have to reboot their section of the Internet
and then charge them double.
I'm stuck inside working getting emails from students saying "Hi, I hope you are enjoying your holidays, please help me with x, y and z because I can't read a web page properly to get the information myself". I AM NOT ON HOLIDAY, LECTURERS DON'T GET THE SUMMER OFF, WE AREN'T TEACHERS. JESUS.

You do, son, and I'll get 'Manowar' to wrestle you with their oily muscles and loincloths.
