Would that I could. Going away for 10 days over Easter, as are half of my team, and we need to line up everything (automated newsletters and all) before we go.

One’s so absent minded, irrational, and generally foggy that their general presence is more of a hindrance than anything, so I’m pretty much on my own.

Or not: I have an intern (who knows nothing about wine, spreadsheets, or databases) who I have to train at the same time.

Very strange that the boss authorised the most important people in the office to bugger off at exactly the same time.
