bored room

Its been over a month since i last wrote. Thats probably due to the fact that im slowly getting used to ma'am and her antics. Nothing seems too wierd anymore.

For about a month now, for some reason, ma'ams respect for me dropped from 50% to zero... and i'm really not sure why. It could be the outside shower that she wanted to brick up, or the swimming pool and braai area that looked like a 'bus station'. Although, ive learnt by this time that whenever she goes into "mean-mode", its usually to compensate for something: i suspect that this time she really doesn't have any money at the moment for both of my projects, so she kindof lets me think she is angry with me (whatever the reason) so that i can be the guilty one, and not her. She probably actually believes herself too.

I haven't had a meeting with her in 5 weeks. I request a meeting every week (once an appointment was actually set up, but she remained in her office and told the PA to tell me she is busy). So i have stretched my work out to the last detail and all i simply need is approval or some direction from her (contractors on standby), but all I get is no response. Deathening silence.

Luckily most people in the office are playing card games, so it's not only my position that is quiet.

Any ideas on how to make work stimulating? i've started learning some xhosa words, cos im the only white person between 9 'xhosa speaking' people, maybe i should do some revit training... and by the way...I am available for private jobs ;-)
