In a meeting, this morning, someone actually used the phrase: "A basket of deliverables." He really said that. Without apparent irony. One of these days I will bite my tongue so hard it will bleed.
I took the afternoon off.
On the bus, looking down into the shops, it occurred to me: what must it be like to be a security guard in Mothercare? Sending for the cops to deal with persistent mitten thieves. Detain one person and get a smaller one free. The defendant and the dependant. I wonder if they burn out quickly, or become somehow immune.
