Okay, that cheered me up for a moment...
Periodically through the day, the management team on my department email us the amount of work left to get through before the end of the day. There's this one report, dealing with undisclosed claims and motoring convictions, that is so big it can be hard to keep up with.
Today, we're doing well even on that report. Bernard, one of the seniors, sent out the status email just now and, either side of that particular report, he put \O/ signs.
This is funny to me because, within the due South communities, this particilar "Yay!" is referred to as 'Paul Gross Arms' *chuckles*
Of course the rest of the team all went "WTF??" so Bernie's had to explain. This has led to a brief exchange of emails with variations on full-body stick people - and my colleagues are rather...juvenile *winks*
It's amazing what makes you feel even momentarily better when you're not well...
