How Was Your Day?

[Buzzell]

Took my two dogs to the park today, Abbey park. Got back to only find that my puppy, Trevor, a Pug puppy, had been sick all in his travel carrier. All that was there was grass, moss, a dog treat and a fag butt.

It was everywhere

Trevor is a damn funny name for a dog

Girlfriend chose it. I wanted to call him Bobby. I had no say in the matter

Absolutely battered last night for a boss' birthday, got very little sleep and tonight I'm working in an empty office from 8pm to midday tomorrow.

I'm never going to last.

8pm?

[Finnegan]

8pm?

Aye, as in I've been here for two hours and I've got 14 to go!

Isn't it illegal to work that many hours?

Not that I'm aware of, I've done plenty of twelve hour shifts. I think you have to have a certain amount of time to rest up between shifts and you can't exceed something like an average of 50 odd hours a week over a four week stretch but there's no law against a sixteen hour shift.

I'm not 100% but fairly confident.

I thought you worked for the council. If so do you work in Ops, otherwise why are you there?

I do. We've outsourced our out of hours, emergency repairs call handling to a London based company and they've been spectacularly shit so far. We've offered to give them 24 hour support over this weekend to sort their act out.

I volunteered for Sunday night.

mate of mine used to volunteer to do the zombie shift in aid of support .He said he rarely got any calls and got paid loads.This all came to an abrupt end when the boss came in very late one evening ,whilst travelling back from a conference .There was my mate purring away on his reclining fishing chair,surrounded by DVDs and crap food.Was given a bollocking,nothing more,but lost the cosy number for good.Sweet dreams.

I've got work to be doing and little but my phone for entertainment. I volunteered for the overtime and I'll have tomorrow PM off as "recoup."

Boredom isn't my problem though it's fatigue. Because I went out last night and didn't sleep it off I'm massively zombie already. Hoping for a second wind some time soon.

Caffeine is your friend.

I recommend being a freak of nature - 42 hours on no sleep and still going strong is easy that way.

Very much like one of my housemates at uni.

I swear the lad slept once a week for about 24 hours.

Lucky bastard - I get by on about 10-15 hours sleep a week.

Don't forget Ben as well, who was essentially nocturnal. Like a pissed up badger.

[The Doctor]

But there's always time for a pissed-up badger. The constitution of my ale society says roughly that (well, it says we have to stop and look at stuffed badgers).

[AoWW]

Someone should really take pity on Finners and keep him company in the All Nighter thread.

(Sadly, I'm far too old for such shenanigans nowadays!)

[Finnegan]

If it's a choice between talking to Large Al all night or getting sacked for falling asleep then I'm off to sign on.

Harsh but fair.

You've got no chance. By the time everyone polls in at 8am you'll be looking and feeling a right state.

Only 12 and a half hours to go!

[The Doctor]

**** off would I be staying up all night to keep finners company. I spend my nocturnal time watching blackadder or red dwarf.
