Entry for 24th September, 2008 - Attacking Monsters with Office Equipment

I have a bleeding massive and complicated project on the go at work just now. I do not really picture it as a job. Instead when I think of it, I think about a drawer in my filing cabinet. When I open the drawer a seven headed hydra emerges which I have to combat with nothing but a ring binder and a staple gun.
These are not the sort of weapons that Hercules would have chosen. Indeed, I suspect, if he had been given items of office equipment, we would not have been handed down tales of "The Twelve Tasks of Hercules" but instead might have got a paragraph or two about how some eejit from the ancient world got town limb from limb after attacking a Cyclops with a hole punch
The hydra is winning this week.
