Storm In A Teacup & The xx

Phewwwwwwwww, it's the weekend!!!!! Not that the work part of my week is over, I had to bring a good amount of work home, but at least I can close the door on a week I am more than happy to see the back of, although I did straighten things out with my manager, Ryan, after Wednesday's fun. I had a meeting with him on Friday and explained to him how unsettling I found his approach to my team in light of my junior team member's resignation and the recent developments with Kenny and his team's departure, a situation which ultimately led to Kenny's resignation - an encouraged resignation I am betting since I know they were looking at their legal options in terms of ending his contract.

"Didn't I tell you I was inviting your team members out to lunch?" asked Ryan

"No, you bloody well didn't."

"Oh, sorry, given the context I can see why you were worried. It won't happen again!!"

I was a little bit taken aback that he was so willing to put his hands up and admit it wasn't the best approach, historically Ryan has been a lot more combative, so this is a change, but definitely a change for the positive.

Anyway after all the stress and torment let's mellow out with The xx shall we. I love their album. Enjoy!!
