January, don't be cold, don't be angry to me

This is a monthly bookkeeping post, keeping up with my new year's resolutions.

I wander lonely streets, behind where the old Thames does flow

These are the days when you wish your bed was already made

A million years ago, when I'd just left university, I was chatting to someone who told me she was a project manager. Oh yes, I said, what does that involve?

It means making sure the project is completed in time, she said.

I suspect at that point, for me, the word "project" still conjured up ring binders and lots of carefully cut-out pictures and geography field trips. I asked what she actually did on a day to day basis.

Oh, anything and everything, she said. Whatever it takes. Anything necessary to bring the project in.

Eventually I gave up, none the wiser.

( I still want to know what people do )

So, tomorrow, I invite you to blog about your working day. On Monday February 4th - specifically - what did you do with your day? I'm more interested in the minutiae than the overarching goals - did you spend all your time writing emails? Were the mails answering questions or demanding answers? Maybe you were sitting in meetings, or travelling from A to B, or operating machinery, or selling things to other companies. Was it a normal, predictable Monday?

Tag it "mundane monday", and invite your friends to do the same...
