Reprographics update
My soulless boss has just taken it on himself to cheer up my colleague (not the ginger stressed one who's hair falls out - the other one.). His father died on Friday, and as a 26 year old who's mother disowned him when the marriage to his dad broke down, this young chap had the grim task of organizing his dad's funeral.
Soulless boss (who has slicked back hair, BTW) chose topical news stories to cheer him up:
"What about that puff off Little Britain, eh? His husband has gone and topped himself, I see.."
"Did you read about those two young lasses who flung themselves off that bridge? What a fucking waste. Did anyone see a picure of them? Were they fit?"
Soulless Boss then asked about how my colleagues dad passed away:
"Fluid on the lungs? Nasty. Massive dose of morphine? They do that, when it's terminal. It's good shit, that morphine. It sent me off my rocker when they gave me it. There's loads of types you know. Powerful as fuck. They gave it to Dave when he got cancer. It's what killed him, really."
Then he asked my colleague to stay on and work extra hours.
Unbelievable.
