Nutella – best ever chocolate when feeling emotiony

I was in the break room, toasting my crumpets and I thought, if I use abit of the Nutella it will be just lovely. Another co-worker arrived and I said I would pledge to buy another pot of the Nutella. However the jar was so empty I was scraping the last few cruds of chocolate sauce anyway. So I cleaned it out and put it out with some other recycling, even though other people thought ‘we don’t recycle here’ we actually do have a huge mega dry recycling waste crate which is sometimes mistaken for an extra bin.

I don’t know about you, but I’m finding the expense of food, travel really adding to the day to day cashflow burden.

When I have a day off, one of my favourite things to go and do, is have a Premier Inn breakfast. And of course, you usually are able to sneak one or two jam or Nutella samples home after your breakie.

My precious, Nutella, muh hah ha!
Do you have a go to snack?

Employee perks, it’s difficult to get them right. My vote would be free toast and fruit for staff who work as carers. What are your experiences of employee perks?

My favourite work break room song to jam too with my imaginary break room band.

Did you hear of the story of the two mice that fell into the milk?

One fell in and drowned. The other kept treading water until the milk churned to cream and then butter. The second mouse then walked out of the jug into safety.

In March 2021 I might finally be eligible for some COV-19 financial support, as I mark a year of self employment. I can’t open a business account because the high streets have now prevented new businesses from opening accounts, due to some of the fraudulent claims for the COV-19 financial aid.

And in the next year as Council Tax rises, I can also be grateful for the administrative error which has meant I missed two months in April and May. So that my rate of CT repayments were about 20% more each month since June and I made all of them, even going down to my last 57p.

Ladies, and gentlemen – which mouse would you like to be? The one which quickly gave up or the one, who through its own efforts was able to crawl out of the hole it fell in?
