Guy Fawkes night tonight... I am up at 6:15am this morning... loads of things to be getting on with, one of which is the Web Site content for my friend at Workway.
WorkWay is a Hungarian company who is setting up in the UK for the purposes of helping Hungarians who wish to migrate to England for work. Their philosophy is to provide a professional, well managed and effective service both for those wishing to take on these workers and for the workers themselves. There have been some horror stories out there of promises of work, places to stay which have resulted in some terrible experiences. WorkWay wants to make all this a thing of the past.
I get a fairly innappropriate email from the financial controller at Deliver Net today. He is complaining in an email about the situation of this reporting problem earlier in the week which turns out to be a bug in the operating system not our software... I can't understand for the life of me, why people don't pick up the phone and smooth things over to get the result they want, because sending an email of this nature causes only problems and upset. If this email had got to my colleague after we both had circa 2-3 hours sleep sorting their problem I may have had a resignation on my hands!
Graham from Business Dashboards gave me a call today... He was talking with a guy at a 4Networking meeting about his product, and asked the man he was talking to what he did... this chap Mark Hall said he was getting involved with a Web Based business platform... to which Graham said it's not i-Tr@der is it, to which Mark said, yes it is actually... Graham rang to update me on the conversation... this I think is the first time (or one of them anyway) that two independent people nothing to do with IPS or our customers have been discussing out product 'out there'.
Andras is around at 2pm to go through the things I am writing for him, and no sooner is this finished Morris is over to go through some changes for the Chesham Rugby Club that he wants to implement. A couple of other bits of positive news about a future project that is slowly coming to fruition and a real positive Vibe in the office this afternoon... busy busy... chop chop!!
Finally managed to get up to date with a few Table Tennis posts and now getting ready for my match tonight in Watford... A friend pops in around 6pm... going into London tonight for a dinner / meeting... I'm helping out with a lift to the station... then off to pick up Roger for tonights match.
Match goes well.. Jets Cougars vs WWCC A - Match Report duly written and posted onto the Watford Table Tennis Blog once I return... we narrowly scrape a 5-3 win!
Some more transportation fun back and forth from Watford Junction and then off to bed !! Early start again in the morning!
