Back home, writing chapter, then bed, erfadrvaervaegvbargtbrgbrg
Yeah you guys aren't getting it tonight, work is not conducive to writing right now, need to get a system sorted.
SPEAKING OF WORK
>Go to job
>Shift through hundreds of documents on a sensitive matter concerning [REDACTED] worth approximately [REDACTED] millions to the firm
>Fuckers toss you right into the deep end they do as soon as you start, hot fuck
>Shoe heels come undone, had to deal with that shit ALL FUCKING DAY
>Flippity floppity flippy flop
>First day doing serious work and OF COURSE I get all the techno arcane fucking problems that literally no one can solve
>Call the solicitor for our matter over to give me some help with [REDACTED]
>My notebook falls out of my folder
>"What the hell is that?" "Uh, my notebook." "It looks like a book of spells." "... it isn't." "Hahaha, just kidding, anyway, here's the thing to do the... the... what the hell?" "Yeah thats the thing." "That thing is not supposed to be doing that thing." "Its totally doing the thing though..."
>Call tech support
>IT guy comes down and performs arcane technosorcery to fix the problem.
>It doesn't work.
>Cue the entire team trying to figure out the thing
>"You could just change that to say that and see if that helps?" I tell the IT guy regarding the thing jokingly, a blind guess.
>mfw it totally works.
>Entire team looks at me suspiciously because that thing isn't supposed to work like that but somehow it is.
>I smile nervously and get back to work doing [REDACTED]
>Entire network had a brain fart and shut down, didn't notice, was doodling in my notebook while pretending to listening to a recording of a video conference concerning [REDACTED]
>IT guys running around like headless chickens, no work gets done.
>feelsgoodman.jpg
>co-worker looks over my shoulder, currently doodling what I think the calligraphy of the old magic in BM looks like in written form, she asks me what it says.
>I say some random string of Irish words that were utterly meaningless.
>Entire system comes back online, the lights flicker, while the IT guys were in the kitchen.
>The office is dead silent.
I have now become known the resident wizard at my firm with serious, legally minded, educated men and women having sneaking suspicions that I can perform witchcraft.
Personally i blame all of you.
Oh and by the way, yes that is actually my notebook, and I am not putting all those Redacted in this blog to be an asshole, I am literally dealing with sensitive shit at my job, to the point where publically talking about it could actually cost me my job AND get me arrested. And I am not going to wizard prison again.
And if that wasn't enough, yesterday I got assaulted by a literal crazy person.

My sides. They have left orbit.
You utter cunt! Twas you who made our Internet shut down suddenly for most of today! Damn you and your wicked wretched wizardry
You seem to be doing pretty important stuff to be paid 10 pounds per hour. Seems like a underwhelming pay.
But gl Handy, with the BM of course. For all I know you could be working for a sekrit puppet of EA
2980620 Its not so much the what I am working on as much as the principles surrounding the work and the importance of the firm's reputation and trustworthiness.
Also law.
EDIT: And you're right, the pay I get for the work I do IS on the cheap side of things.
That is the entire point the firm opened up these offices in Belfast, because it was soaked in a deep pool of professional legal talent that was simply wasting away and who were willing to do this kind of work for this kind of pay. You couldn't get anything cheaper for this level of skill and professionalism anywhere else in the UK or the commonwealth (barring Australia), its just good business sense, being able to keep the work within the UK, using the talent thats there for undermarket value while at the same time not having to sacrifice in quality of work. I certainly jumped at the opportunity at any rate and I know many friends of mine who are also doing the same (using me as a life ring to get into the firm)
2980670 You should threaten to hex the network if they don't hire your friends.
2980670 how do i like a blog post master wizard?
One of the better green texts I have read and I lurk
enoughITS NEVER ENOUGH!!!Fuck it, I'm probably gonna repost this.
Roll with it.
Just straight faced technomancy.
You're a wizard Handy.
Here's your owl, broomstick, and a prophecy that states you must vanquish the evil overlord of evil.
Have fun.

git gud
I want that book
I used to have a habit of drawing Goetic imagery in the corners of my notebooks because I've got a bit of a fascination with historical occultism and mystery cults, due to how they influenced famous figures in philosophy and science and thus my own field. Well, that and they look nice. You'd be surprised how many people think this means you actually have magical powers.
2982420 No, hex is the right word. He is a wizard, not a script kiddy that thinks he is a hacker.
