Gustav grillade grisen i gryningen!

This is the one sentence I can now say in swedish and understand what it means, and for it to sound ok. It’s one of those things like.. “she sells sea shells on the sea shore” Since I am going to go to Roskilde (DK), Oslo (Norway) and I have a place to stay in sweden, i feel I should brush up on some scandanavian languages, and as danish sounds like a cat being strangled, I’ll stick with swedish.

I have looked at easyjet for cheap tickets to Copenhagen from the UK, and found they are like $60AUD return. I thought when I was talking to friends they were joking -seems as though they weren’t. I think my trip might end up being alot cheaper than I thought originally if this is the case. All I need to do is sort out accomodation with family friends for whilst I am in London. If I find that I run out of things to do in the scandanavian countries, I could swing back to London, and then do some exploring further :-) I really need to work my ass off however to get those savings into my account so I have enough spending money.

Workwise, I have been working on that development plan and now on my second page of things I want to achieve. I spoke to one of the managers today and showed her my list, and her comment to me was, that she didn’t want me to do too much. I can see it from her point of view, but I have actually done alot of the stuff on the development plan, and just added some things extra to get a better view on how to coach customer care staff better after spending time in a couple of departments and seeing what we can do better to cut down on work for other depts, and reduce call handling times.

i’m not sure that the TL I have is the best person for me, however on the other hand, it will ensure that I learn what I need to learn and help the both of us achieve what we need to for the team we work for.

And that topic means, Gustav grilled the pig at dawn. Not sure why he did, but there we have it, Swedes are odd.
