As far as how tough things can get, my stand is still to keep it to myself within the organisation and not spread it like a contagious virus. The latter action would certainly put a bad light on me...if things are really not good, people who are smart enough will be prepared to move on.

My company at my desk today is the box of peppermint tea which dearie had bought for me on Sunday; drinking it adds a warmth of comfort that I have someone who cares for me...

Looking forward to solo lunch later; a walk to Funan might be a good idea to keep my mind off the unhappy things.
