That was until a thoughtful colleague picked me up a mug of hot chocolate – all 100% gratis.

This week is my last working five days
Monday to Friday is over for me.
From next week, I will no longer be working Tuesdays.
Dropping a day is not a decision that I took lightly. It will obviously have financial implications for me, plus now I have signed that change of conditions form, there is no going...
