Default A long night for me.

Working a doubleshift tonight. I'll get out at 7:30am.
It'll be nice to get 25% shift differential calculated into the 17 hrs of OT. <ChaaChing!>

Sure! Bring your laptop, a deck of cards, a few magazines, a book... it gets pretty boring here.
The 3rd shift guy left his DVD player here and a case full of movies.

I had to desk raiding for candy, Scored some tootsie rolls. sweet tarts, runts, nerds, and laffy taffy. Needs sugar to keep me awake!


Movies look like they suck or I've seen them except for one called thirteen that I've never heard of. I was actually afraid it was **** so I had to look it up. Its legit but since it won awards its probably not my cup of tea. For some reason those always seem to suck.

The title is Systems Operator. Mainly I oversee an IBM Mainframe computer. Its a dying yet specialized field. I would recommend you keep out unless you're already in it.
