Seriously, makes for interesting reading, although the silent calls bit I get all the time, owing to those dreadful telesales companies asking you to get an IVA several times a week. Or is it?
Thought-provoking stuff. Guess, I’d better stuff my face with pizza and stop going to the gym; never looked in the mirror – always been an ugly b******!
Sounds like you have a really interesting job.
