Yesterday I get my tax bill. The relevant excerpt:
Tax Calculation for 2000-2001 Income: £2450.00 Minus Deductions and Allowances Personal Allowance: £4385.00 Taxable Income: £0.00
And that was the year I was making almost steady money.
On Thursday (maybe) this week I get to go to mrph and paulw's workpit to be told to fuck off. *sigh*, bye bye client, it was nice to get money out of you even if you were on the whole brainless fuckwads.
And to crown it I just get the phonecall from Katherine telling me that as the PDS have managed to fuck their research committee organisation totally, the project a) won't be starting in June but October at the earliest and b) that'll mean that we'll miss the deadline for me to do the OT Pack revision for the PDS.
Sometimes I feel like giving up. Anyone need a damn good tech writer/editor? will work for even a little appreciation, sod money and food.
