Tomorrow I have to go down to Newcastle (from Edinburgh) to sit in a currently unused office to wait for someone from the council to come in and do an inspection.

Supposedly they could come in anytime during the day, so I'll have to leave here at 6am and they may not come til 5pm.

So it seems that the boss here thinks that I have nothing better to do with my time than sit in an office in Newcastle waiting for someone to arrive. This makes me feel really valued.

Last week I had to try to order a perspex case and I'm constantly being asked to drive people/things all over Scotland. In case you were wondering, I'm a copywriter with a fair amount of work on my hands at the moment.

What's the strangest/most annoying task you've been given at work?
