Like children.

Scenario: You have a big, BIG box of old video tapes to throw away. In front of you are two skips. One is steel mesh, and half full of flattened cardboard and paper. The other is blue and half full of assorted rubbish bags and office trash.

Which bin do you put your plastic video tapes in?

Of course, by putting plastic in the cardboard recycling bin they invoked the Wrath of Growler. And by the simple process of elimination- which business in the complex uses DigiBeta tapes? I was able to track down the culprit and get her to help me clean the bin out. Being able to say "While I *could* do it for you, I'm charged out by the hour and I'm not cheap" kind of convinced them to at least help me...

Just call me Herr Kommandant.

Snacky bears

Oh Wednesday.

My Wednesdays have become rather busy since the Paul left. Wednesday is Urge banking day, gas bottle checking day, and, this week at least, the day to pick up snacks for Bears' night. (It seems Kamo has double booked this week, so Bears' night will be at Urge. Time to crack out the beer specials and sausage rolls!).

And to complicate things, some equipment went missing from one of the buildings, so I get to scrub through 4 days of video footage looking for anyone who looks dodgy. Which is just about everyone in that building, and especially me.

Oh and I also get to clean one building and spray the green goo on another. Whee!!
