Manic Monday

My usual 15 minute drive to work took me 45 minutes today....roadworks, aaaargh!!

Luckily, my first patient was late too so I didn't keep them waiting too long.

I'm not sure what they are doing on the M65, but traffic has been horrendous for the last few weeks, (on the opposite side of the carriageway). I didn't know the work was starting on this side today or I would have gone the scenic route.

I don't get stressed anymore in traffic jams; there's no point, it doesn't make it move any quicker.
What does piss me right off though are the morons who don't let you pull in when the lane is closing.

I mean seriously, does one more car in front of you really make such a massive difference when you're already crawling along the motorway?!

The person behind the guy who wouldn't let me in was much more accommodating, thankfully. The Moron probably thought I was cursing him from his view in the mirror, but I was having a good old singalong instead.

This afternoon I was with my nice nurse at the new(ish) place (as opposed to the grumpy one I worked with a few weeks ago).
She told me that she's been awarded 'employee of the month', partly because I praised her efforts to the Manager, which she thanked me for. I said no thanks necessary, it's well deserved and great that she's got some recognition for her hard work.

I doubt very much that grumpy will ever win it!
