It was originally intended that the book-keeper would take each and every item into his office for tabulation one at a time; the current booze barrel is just a placeholder. Toady will eventually get around to fixing it.

Wouldn't it be better if the dwarf went to the items, and signed everything on the spot, instead of running all over the place? Or at least make it a 2 dwarves job, where one gets notes on the items, and then bring the notes to the guy in the office, to update the books? On the other hand, dwarves are crazy, so why bother.

You are using 'buggered' wrong. It is bugging you. Buggering you would mean screwing you over in some way, as it is another term for sodomy, a light curse. etc etc.

Pedant mode over.

Because nothing is more monotonous than doing accountancy, so you do it while submrged in dwarven rum.

Both misspelled and a completely valid point. Nothing makes you think clearer than a cool alcoholic bath!

Edit: I mean bookkeeper.  ::)
Same Dwarf anyway, usually, for me.

I'd say it's still valid.

The bookkeeper is using the booze as ink.
