She told me I had desperation in my eyes.

I ve only just started realising how dependant I am on a "Pat on the back", I ve been working my arse of for weeks and havent had one- and now I feel like Ive been sold out.

And I thought I was an independant person- not so apparently.

Anyway my project launch has been delayed to the week after I go on holiday, which is good for me, but bad for the girl replacing me because she will be answerable for all of MY figures (which incidently are water tight)

In any case- she wont know what hit her.

And since I used to be her manager (once upon a time) I feel really bad for her, and I feel like I need to protect her from the wrath my mathematical honesty will incur.

So now- even before I have left for home, I am already thinking about what time I will have to phone in Melbourne in order to speak to my manager Edinburgh during business hours when I get there.

Either Im a complete control freak or a bloody idiot- I dont know which.
