Working on a Saturday you say? Well that&#8217;s down to the sheer volume of work we&#8217;ve got on at the moment &#8211; the quiet time from before Christmas has been replaced by a deluge, and never one to shy from a bit of hard graft, I&#8217;m working a bit extra. I&#8217;m pretty confident we&#8217;ll settle back into a normal routine once both contracts are established, but for now it&#8217;s a little chaotic. Certainly I&#8217;m well aware of my previous rants about 9-5, Monday to Friday being the only sensible way to work, but at least temporarily I&#8217;m happy to push a little more if it means we deliver what the clients need.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and with regards to people who have emailed me lately about recruitment, I apologise for the delay in getting back to you, but paperwork has been somewhat shuffled to the back of the agenda. The situation will be rectified soon, I promise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pros: 40 minutes saved walking to and from office = 40 minutes extra work time Hot tasty food for lunch instead of just sandwiches Can use break time to go out and do much needed food shopping Cons: Cats alternating between walking on my keyboard while I&#8217;m typing, and lying nearby looking grumpily at me [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false}}},"categories":[3],"tags":[18,36],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pg1JR-2w","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackcompanystudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/156"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackcompanystudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackcompanystudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackcompanystudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackcompanystudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=156"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blackcompanystudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/156\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackcompanystudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=156"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackcompanystudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=156"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackcompanystudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=156"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
