16 hours and 50 minutes

Posted by Dominic Tue, 04 Dec 2007 18:22:00 GMT

Yesterday I left home around 7am to go to work.

Yesterday I got home around 11:50pm from work.

That’s 16 hours and 50 minutes of my day that I spent with work-related things.

Yes, it was long. Yes, it sucked. But in the end, we resolved a very large handful of very annoying problems that had bothered us for several weeks. (And caused no small amount of emotional distress on my part. Blech.)

I told my boss I would be “working” from home today. Oddly enough, I’ve done a few things. Finished some troubleshooting I was involved in, send out several emails responding to the (hopeful) resolution of the aforementioned problems, etc.

And now I’m done.

Butt-less Chaps

Heard at unknown location W -

A: Do you have the admin login?

M: No, even I haven’t been given the keys to the kingdom yet….

Me: Oh, have to wait for O to give them to you?

M: Yeah, he’s the king of the hill.

Me: We see who’s wearing the pants in this relationship.

M: I wear the butt-less chaps.
