I love my job, I do.

OK - so it's almost 3.30am and I've *just* finished enough work to present to some bods down in London tomorrow.

Trouble is, I'm booked on a 6am train :shock: :shock:

It's been like this for about three weeks now. The last few days have all been between 3 and 4.30am finishes, will still having to be back in the office for 9-9.30(ish). I shall, however, tell my boss to his face tomorrow that I am not coming in on Friday -- I shall be asleep. We'll see how he takes it!

But what really gets me is that fact that the Polo's not been washed for a couple of months (just no time...) :cry: Wouldn't be so bad but it's getting caked in tree sap...

Deek.
(Anyone got a better job?)

I woke up at eleven this morning. I can drink all day and nobody would care. I don't get dressed until somewhere 'round three o'clock. I don't shave unless I go out, which is never.

I love my job.

I get paid to drink copious amounts of tea and arse about with computers all day :) plus I sometimes get let out to visit clients, which is always a larf. Not so much the visit, more the driving about in the Polo :lol:

Yeah I forgot to mention it doesn't pay anything. Sorry.

I call it Pretending To Study. I've been doing it for 7 years now...

I'd like your job DXG - it sounds like it must pay plenty.

Muz you must have fun making delicous sperm burgers for the customers ;-)

Speedlaw how do you manage to mod a nice polo and live without a job? Do you rob banks for a hobby?

Well... I get around through student loans, moon lighting as a pc fix-it-all, selling old parts, etc. And, I don't eat or go out, ever.
