Aug. 1st, 2007 04:30 pm3km is not really that long. But if you walk that both yesterday and today, and on both days have to measure, take photos, note down things whilst being mindful not to be knocked over either by a bus (if you're on the carriageway) or by a pram (footway), it's a killer. And the heat. OMG the heat.
And for God's sake, has nobody in the world seen a measuring wheel before? Which planet are you from?
And just because it's 2 girls walking around measuring shit and writing on a plan, it does not mean you should come over and ask us what we're doing, thinking it's really funny. I swear to God, it wouldn't happen if we were guys. Every time I go and do this sort of site work, it's like accepting an invitation to be harrassed. I'd rather go to a construction site. Contractors respect me.
What sort of pub says on the menu they'd take plastic if you spend over £5, and then when you order they say they don't take it unless you spend £10? The woman was really arsey, too. (lesson: don't go to The Goose in Catford.)
Had a very bad case of tummy ache last night. Almost threw up, too. Stomach still not very comfy at the moment. I'm not a happy person.

Contractors respect you because you're an engineer, if you were a passerby, you will be harrased just the same, believe me.
And hope you feel better ::sends healing vibes::
Tomorrow will be better, or you should polish your evil death glare and kill them all.

We're the ones who have to pay for the fact that they have no form of self-restraint whatsoever. I can just imagine what your day was like (um, vaguely at least, ^^;;). Boo. :/
