The Importance of Being Idle

StEVE Online

Today at work wasn't so bad, although I was a little shaken to discover that Matt is the only person there who actually thinks he has a good job and isn't looking around; when I found out that one of our referrals was looking for a new job too I realised that the team was truly doomed. Seriously, there will only be Matt left soon enough, and he's a temp and easily and painlessly disposed of! Maybe that's the plan though, just let the info team destroy itself and then merge it's functions with somebody else. Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest. Anyway, that aside work was... well it was work; it began, it middled, it ended. That is all.
For some reason when I got home I registered for the Warhammer Age of Reckoning online beta. I doubt I'll get in, and even if I did I don't know as I'd have time for the game, but I've never done a beta test before and it IS a Warhammer MMO so it's got to be worth a look. Wonder if they'll let me be a wood elf?

No, they won't (although I could be a bloody dwarf!) but there's some lovely concept art for the Witch Hunter class, so that might tempt me... See, it's pretty isn't it? I've always had a soft spot for the more fanatical and extremist parts of the Empire, which I guess explains (partly) my choice of Black Templars in 40k; it's hard to get more hardline than those guys! Also, they look cool!
Remember how last week I stayed in for the entire of Friday for a parcel they didn't deliver? Well it's finally been delivered, albeit not to any of the addresses we'd asked for, but finally to Ronnie's parents. Parcelforce being a big sack o'retards aside, the stuff is well worth the wait and will hopefully make people very happy when they finally see it; it's something that is unique to us as a retailer and yet highly sought after. In fact it's hardly available anywhere in this country, and certainly not in the variety we can provide! Yes, let's welcome crin to the UK! And not a moment too soon says I. Not I want some cyber-style arm guards and stuff, and we're on!
