one of our admin girls is going on holiday next week...

so the company obviously decided to get a replacement from an agency for these two weeks...
our admin girl is also in charge of the coffee machine (one of these posh ones that do latte and cappuccino and all that stuff). as i am probably having as much coffee as the whole rest of the staff together i usually have some nice chats with our admin girl. she is one of thos that i would marry immediately...
if she was 20 years younger and wasn't already married... ;)

yesterday S. came into the office to receive her training.
WOW...

S. is extremely fit... nearly as tall as i am with blonde hair and bright eyes... and a smile that melts stones...
i immediately was in a better mood when she entered the office. the company should bring new replacement girls in more frequently... ;)

no chance though that she stays for longer as she just finished university and wants to work as a health researcher (which might make her end up at one of the london unis). currently she lives with her sister at her parents house in wetherby as i found out on the first day...

today unfortunately i was at a meeting in leicestershire the whole day...
short deviation: my uk coal project (at which's meeting i was today) is running pretty well and two days ago "boss" said in front of all our staff that uk coal is currently the only project in the office that is managed in a way that he would like to see all projects managed... that felt quite good hearing that... :)
most of our projects are delayed because we have too many of them...
to keep the team spirit up i answered "boss" that it's only because uk coal is a very patient client... don't want to make the team feel bad (but a little bit of pride i feel).

however. because of the meeting i didn't see a lot of S. today as i had to leave when she came into the office. but she gave me a smile (one of the stone-melting ones) when she saw me...

so i have only 11 days left to leave a good impression...
i don't really know how to do that but i need to find a way...

keep you updated... ;)
