12 January 2016, mid-day
And then I must attend a meeting of the Professional Development Working Group. Which is about having lunch, mainly, but also about putting together a fantastic programme of seminars and webinars for CIPA members. Also the lunch is very good, or have I already mentioned that? And then in the afternoon I must sit next to Mr Davies, who has rearranged his office to fit in yet more people, most of whom have taken the opportunity to not be there. I occupy Mr Lampert’s empty desk because it has a better wifi signal than other parts of the room. The downside is the proximity to Mr Davies and his thoughts, which disrupt the wifi anyway. During the afternoon I add loads more tasks to my to-do list, making sure that all of them fall due on another day which I never expect to arrive. I also take one or two tasks off the list, by convincing myself that Mr Davies will pretend to deal with them so that I don’t have to. I am no more confident of Mr Davies’s ability to progress something on a task list than I am of my own, but that, I guess, is how delegation works.
