What’s on the mennu?
With in-person conferences back in full swing, Outsider is making regular visits to the CBD.
One benefit of conferences being in person again is that Outsider can treat himself to a free lunch, cake and a coffee.
Being brought one by Mrs O while he sat with headphones on in front of his laptop just wasn’t quite the same, although beggars can’t be choosers when it comes to meals.
However, while the food may be good, the organisers at these events could do with proofreading their menus.
At one conference, he was invited to ‘mornning tea’ while for lunch, it was prime rib with ‘green beads’.
With a lull in his workload, Outsider is willing to offer his services on a freelance basis as a spellchecker for these types of events.
His only payment request? An extra helping of food to enjoy with Mrs O when he gets back home.
