Stuck at work for the next 6 hours, entertain me
You guys need to post more entertaining stuff to keep me entertained the rest of the day.
You may be thinking, "wow, that sucks, working until 9pm on a Sat." Well, I (am supposed to) work 4 tens, Wed-Sat 10a-9p. I completely miss traffic, I don't have to wake up early, and if things are normal, I get 3 days a week off. Since I've started this position at the end of June, they've been offering pretty much open ended OT. I started by working an extra 10 hour day for a month. Then I transitioned to 2 extra days a week for the month of Aug until our vacation expecting the OT to be unavailable after the end of Aug. When I got back from vaca, they said, "we expect it to be available until the end of the year. I get paid by the hour. I don't know that I can manage six 11.5 hour days a week like I was doing. So I'm shooting for an alternating 5 days, 6 days, 5 days, 6 days until they tell us "no mo OT".

I could send you a link to follow the play-by-play of a Middle School softball game at 4pm. That's good for an hour. :-)
Amazing app for the iPhone. |

You too masraum? I'm sitting here building out a site for (imho) one of the dumbest internet managers that we happen to have for a client. Hopefully he will attend training next week and I can wash my hands of this...

Thankfully, I'm only on call for this weekend's implementation.
I was on vacation when the roster for the implementation went around, and my coworkers forgot when I'd be back... (This is the only time this has worked out in my favor.)
