Having to work at work...

Post by Frankennietzsche »

I was actually working the past couple of days at work. Everythig gets hectic before classes start. The actual down time that I did have was incredibly boring because the T1 line was down for an upgrade. I also had to shakingly drag my hungover ass up to help with a seminar in front of the entire faculty and staff, quite embarassing. Oh well, they treat me well normally. Thank the gods (Dionysus, specifically) for the curative powers of booze.

i may not be able to just stop going to work, but i'll be damned if i make easier the lives of those above me by doing my job. if they can't appreciate a good hangover, then fuck 'em all. i'll work when its beneficial to me. i'm sorry they make you do your job. i'm drinking this one for you.

Shit I haven't hit a lick in a few weeks. They are probably going to call me on it soon.

This post made me realize that i should do some work. my strategy is to "work" for about 5 minutes, "find" (sometimes meaning create :twisted: ) an issue that requires the boss to intervene, and resume my conversation with the wall until the issue is resolved. I then repeat the process. I really don't know why they pay me, but I am thankful that they do!
