Indian summer

We had those couple of days of autumn weather but we're back to the Indian summer now. 20 degrees outside and not a cloud in sight, I had to take back out all my summer clothes that I had already tucked away.

At work it's very peaceful. In the wake of our former HR manager suddenly getting fired, we're chasing a pineapple thief and bracing ourselves as we're in the calm before the proverbial storm. Next few months are going to be really busy but right now we take it easy. I have a new colleague in the automation team - Christine is finally another Java person, and I'll be working closely with her with many of my projects. I was slightly worried in advance about her language skills - she's from China and some of our Chinese speak so bad English it makes communication difficult - but she's great. Her English is good, she's very intelligent, quick and to top it off she's actually really nice. I think I'm going to like working with her.

Heard about KK, she messaged the other day. Likely just sour grapes, but she thinks there might be others on the block as well.

:(

I now know more about office politics I really wanted to know... totally serves me right for being nosy.
