Superpaperworkfairy

Faster than a slow internet connection! More powerful than Windows 3.1! Can leap tall pieces of equipment with the aide of a stepladder! Yes! It's the Evil Paperwork Fairy! She's back in action!

Things have just descended into 'insane' mode at work. Finally, the refit has got around to doing the paperwork. And the Evil Paperwork Fairy is in hot demand! If this level of running around continues, I reckon I'll lose five to ten kilos. Which wouldn't be a bad thing.

People, of course, all want me at once. The Grand Visier and our Reg Affairs Associate both needed documents from the compactus, which took a bit of fiddling, given that the compactus is currently blocked off by some very large, very heavy pieces of equipment. That problem was solved with the aid of a stepladder, enabling me to climb up onto the very heavy (and basically box-shaped) pieces of equipment and thus down into the compactus. Fortunately, I managed to get back out again without damaging anything.

Then the Leprechaun decided that it was his turn. He's drafted the rest of the Production crew in to the task of document review (a first for a manager around here - usually they all say 'no no no, we've got to do it all ourselves and then expire from terminal stress!'), ostensibly to save me some work (which, lets be honest, it will). It's not, though. It's really just to save himself some work. But hey - I can respect that. Besides - it keeps the rest of Production occupied.

Anarchist Prime has been pretty quiet, though. Apart from helping him use Adobe Acrobat for the first time, he hasn't bothered me all day.
