Breakfast is a good idea

I thought I would have enough time to set up and have a cup of tea and a spot of breakfast before my group arrived for Professional Development session this morning. Murphy Law's struck and I didn't have time.

So I did without food until about 2pm - I left home at 7am.

Consequently, I have a headache behind my eyes and am very tired. In about an hour, I'm due to have dinner with P's family.

I just want to go home.

Corporatism

Is corporatism a bonafide word?

I said to myself, at the end of the first week of my new job, "Liv, welcome to the corporate world."

I start at 9am, and my earliest end time has been 6pm.

It's a wake-up call to how worklife works.
