Back at the Krypton Factor again this week. I now have my own temporary security pass which makes things a whole lot easier. Well, easier until you try and buy lunch with it.
I decided to brave the canteen on my own today. There’s only so many Tesco layered cheese salads I can take. I really think Tesco are missing a trick. Their sarnies and salads are not a patch on Sainsbury’s. They need to introduce a salad bar and rethink their takeaway options.
There was a bloke outside the canteen roasting chestnuts on an open fire whilst someone played the bagpipes. It reminded me of Paris Hilton. Totally pointless.
Somewhere between filling my tray up and getting to the till to pay for it, I lost my security card. I had the holder in my hand, but the actual card had slipped out. I cannot begin to explain how serious this is. Almost as serious as misplacing the crown jewels.
After scouring the floor in the canteen with no joy, I had to report the missing card to security. Not just any old security, but the security on the ground floor, turn left, go through the double doors, keep walking, turn right, through the door, go to the hatch, ring the bell. Of course this was easier said than done as I couldn’t get through any doors without a security pass. Honestly - I just felt like getting in my car and driving home. But I couldn’t get to my car because I couldn’t get to it without a security pass.
It’s back to Tesco tomorrow, salad bar or no salad bar.
