Perry rang today and abused me for not filling in his termination form correctly (in his opinion). I put his lump sum down as a payout rather than as a redundancy, which was correct. But it means he will have to pay a higher rate of tax on it. He was so abusive, and it really upset me. I didn’t want to argue with him, so I referred it to our solicitors. I’m sure I’m right, but now I wonder if I should’ve been kind, and just changed the reason to keep him happy.
Vacuumed tonight to try to take my mind off Perry. Unfortunately, all that did was make me angry, which I suppose was better than being upset. I bought this vacuum cleaner last year from an actual vacuum cleaner shop for about $600, and all it does is create a gentle breeze while it picks up a little of what is intended, followed by the whirly thing on the end dumping it in the next room. All I seem to be doing is moving dust from one room to another. And heaven forbid I should try and pick up a leaf. Even the spiders aren’t scared of it. The man in the vacuum cleaner shop went to great lengths to explain all of its features. The only thing he forgot to tell me was that it doesn’t work. Yes, I’m sorry to say that my vacuum cleaner sucks (if only).
