Well, another Monday, another headache. I don't feel rested at all after my 3 day weekend. I'm absolutley wiped out. My sinus problems have kicked off big style which'll mean yet [i]another[/i] trip back to the doctors, 5th in 6 months I reckon. I only hope she sorts it this time and doesn't just give me another load of antibiotics that don't work.

I didn't get either job I had an interview for last week so it's back to square one again. I don't know what to do now, I really don't. I think it may be time to reassess what I want to do in terms of a career as I can't seem to find anything in my own field that I can do; perhaps it's time to go back to school and learn a new trade. If I were a plumber I could earn a fortune... wonder what my Dad'll say to that one?!

Work is rubbish, as usual. I could have done with staying in bed another couple of hours today but I dragged myself into the office. Wish I hadn't bothered now. Seeing as I'm not feeling 100% I was slightly confused to discover an email relating to work I'm scheduled to do today sent to me and

PHB#2 with a note on it asking PHB#2 to do the work, which is my work. Does that make sense? Anyway, PHB#2 did part of [i]my[/i] work which he wasn't asked to do and then didn't do the second part which he was specifically asked to do - WTF? Don't know about you but I'm confused.

I don't know why he did it. I always do this bit of work every morning, you can't argue that just because I'd got Friday off he thought he'd do my Monday work for me to be helpful can you? I'm beginnging to think that I'm slowly being forced out of my job. I suppose in a way that would be the best as being made redundant would look better than being fired or quitting. And I may stand to get some money. That's a thought. I'd better keep track of it all so I can always go the constructive dismissal route.

Had a meeting with

PHB#1 this morning. She's gone back to a homepage design I did over 2 weeks ago but doesn't want it to look so "flat". I asked to her to clairfy what "flat" meant and stated that there was no point in me doing anything until I knew what she wanted as whatever I did she'd hate. She obviously has a well defined idea of what she wants that she's failed to communicate with me - and instead points me in the direction of websites that have nothing to do with our industry and just blatantly won't work in the context we'd use the design.

I now have no motivation and no idea what to do. I've sat here all morning looking at various sites with no inspiration what-so-ever. I've told her she'll have something by the end of the day.

Great.

It's taken me about 5 hours to write this (shows the level of motivation eh?). I've decided to learn XSLT this afternoon as a way to keep my sanity.

Am so depressed and feeling ill I'm off to McDonald's for lunch - see, I must feel bad!
