How much work do you acutally do?
I get accused regularly of cruising, doing 3.5 days a week of actual work....yet I can't be knocked on the end result.
So how much work do you lot actually do in a week?

Double what I did in Saudi but probably only two-thirds of what I did in the UK, at a guess, if that helps.

Like today I am leaving at half 1 to go to a BBQ, But the guy is a Project Director here and ordered 3 pajero's off me. That counts as work right?

My constant challenge here is to get people to appreciate the difference between 'Attendance Time' and 'Productive Time!' Fingerprint Machines, and Bundy Clocks do not measure Productivity!

Work is slow, not as much as I'd like to.

As much as I need to to achieve the results which can be anywhere from a 30 hour week to 100 hour weeks including flights.
Summer time/Ramadan etc , I have trouble keeping busy past 2pm.

Re: How much work do you acutally do?
This week something below **** all, as the amount of my posts here in this period would testify to.
Occupying my mind this week in the name of work:
How to secretly bad mouth one competing contractor to the client without them knowing it came from me.
Would working in Khartoum lose us work in South Sudan, and should only Christian guys from the company go there as representatives.
How to present a bill to the the Saudi foreign ministry for twice the original estimate cost, without pissing them off.
All this is rattling around in my head, while surfing the net, talking shit, drinking coffee and trying to get a dirty conversation going with some one on whatsapp.
Is this definable as work?

Just send them all wearing crosses

They will have no ******* idea how much was estimated, and most probably who did the work

Well I need to badmouth the guy in such a way that it looks like I am concerned on the client's behalf. So the rumour is going to have to be generated 6 degrees away from him and then filter across (gathering legs I hope).
As for the rest, Sunday is another day.
My whatsapp conversation has taken a turn for the worse, apparently her penis is a hard as a rock right now. Do crossed lines still exist in the mobile phone era?
