damnit it nigh 8:30 on a FRIDAY night and im still at work fixing email distruibution lists!

and just spent 2 hours or so fixing a color laser printer that had its fuser kit die at 4:45 this arvo and needed replacing tonight. man. I was like freaking faster than batman. call up my fav supplier. they get _their_ supplier to put one outside for me. sprint from Fanshawe ST to Albany Industrial (in rain) and back. then comes the HARD part. the manual was about 40 pages long and you had to let the thing cool down for at least 45 mins beforehand,

Hmmm..... let me think about that for a second........
NO!

But I will expect you to be in the kitchen in the morning cooking me some eggs when I get home!

(The eggs are in the pantry, the frying pan is in the cupboard under the microwave. Vogels bread is in the freezer and the toaster is on the bench on the left hand side by the door, next to the kettle. I like my tea strong (teabags are in cupboard above kettle with the mugs) with just a little milk (in the fridge). Got that? )

Actually, smartarse, the frying pan isn't in the cupboard under the Microwave. I've only been here a week, trying to wreck the place and all, and even I can see that. While you've been pissing around at work, I've completely rearanged your kitchen.

You can now get to the oven, from the sink, without me having to lengthen your chains. Clever eh? :yes:

Just boring Admin crap... but our company works 7 days a week, because we deal with property investments and sales and so most of our clients can only see us on weekends or evenings (because they need to work full time to afford our property).

lol so yeah if you get some annoying telemarketing call inviting you to a presentation with a free gift... thats proberly the company I work for

*works every Saturday and has done so for the last 2 years...*

*forgot what its like to have a 2 day weekend*

Get another job if you don't like it, plenty of work out there. I struggle to find good staff

9th July 2005, 10:02
Yeah I could get another job... but the reason why I stay is that I've been here nearly 3 years, my hours are flexible (can work as much as I like up to 60 hour per week and as little as I like down to as little as 45 hours per week). I've been working crazy hours since I started working 4 years ago... Always only ever had one day off a week at the best, I've had times when I've worked 21 days on and 1 day off then back to 21 days... But it's ok... I like money :) so working isn't usually a problem... just makes me a bit sad in summer and on days when the weather is perfect for riding... and I only have access to the internet from work so at least when I'm bored (which is most of the time) I come on here and post a lot lol :)

I worked like a slave for thirteen hours yesterday, man it sucks. Contractors such as myself don't get to choose our hours too much. We do the job as soon as we can, and the faster you go, the higher the hourly rate, ($50hr) yesterday, but when we take on a job that is not what we expect, mister hourly rate goes through the floor, (16hr) last week. Makes budgeting a bitch!
Two day weekend this time round, very rare :yes: , and very good!
