13,000 steps is what I'm currently at for today. I didn't do any thing extra than I needed to today at work, I just did what needed doing and I cracked 10K as I was leaving work. We then had the pre-exchange inspection on the house that we are trying to buy. I thought that we would have already exchanged contracts by now and have a settlement date locked in but we haven't got there yet. The building inspection and pest report showed that we have a little water damage under the house from what is most likely a leaking shower. The people purchasing the house want to get the shower the resealed before settlement so we're trying to get that organised. It's not a big deal, it's just annoying as the company that they want to do the resealing can't even come and quote until Thursday afternoon. They then need to actually give us a formal quote and we need to engage them. I'm expecting it to cost some where up to $1,500 and we're just going to have to suck it up and move on. If it comes in as costing much more than that I think that we'll have to request that we get some more quotes.
On top of all the moving house business, I've been really busy at work and to make matters worse my colleagues are basically doing nothing, they are being the public servants that the newspapers write about. Long lunches, late starts and early finishes, they would not last a week in private industry and unfortunately my supervisor isn't willing to rock the boat and put them under performance management. Basically we're a three man team where if I don't do it, then it won't get done, it sucks.
I've talked about changing jobs previously and if it continues like this for too long, then I'll have no choice but to move on to somewhere else as I can't handle it when I can see that I'm the only one doing anything and the others, who are getting the same salary as me, are getting away with doing next to nothing.

I think I need another holiday.
