So.... Who's working today?

[ScoobyDoo]

Heading back up M6 now after work, M6 shut both directions at junction 15 which is where I am now, looks pretty bad guys, so avoid if your in the area.

It was, spent most of my shift working at the scene. Not the best Xmas I've had

6am -2pm for me last day and have a week off though so not had shame I've missed most of the festive celebrations and drinking though... Will have to make up for it I suppose.

That accident sounded dreadful,people really are very dangerous on the road these days with the lack of driving skill,arrogance and people being able to buy these stupid tank like offroad cars(that never go offroad) it really is very dangerous and a recipe for disaster.

Doesn't sound good, you there from the beginning?

 

[~Divine~Wind~]

8-4 again, seems a bit busier than yesterday.

 

[xGBHxPegasus]

8:30 - 5:30 for me.

Although judging by the amount of people Ive seen no-ones coming in.

Just got to wait for a call from the VA credit card fraud team!

 

[Mike UK]

7:30 til 3:30 Gives me a bit of time to catch up on a couple of jobs.

Roads were quiet at least

 

[Hilly]

8-4:30 here, unless the management lets me go early! (doubtful!)

 

[Skidder]

yep 9 until 6 I suppose

 

[Devrij]

Been at work for an hour and the phone hasn't rung once. There are only 5 of us in the office (out of the usual 50) so it's pretty quiet.

 

[.:MBK:.]

no calls, no emails, today is going to be a slow one

 

[Nimdok]

Back at work today and tomorrow, it's so quiet. Only myself on Desktop Support and another in Networks but there are no jobs coming in and most of the users who've logged calls aren't in. Also there's no heating

 

[Deception]

no calls, no emails, today is going to be a slow one

Exactly the same here. Any little work that I had has been done already, so now to sit here til 5pm.

 

[topgun06]

A single day at work for me today. Roads were lovely, could leave home a lot later.

At least I have some work to keep me occupied though!

 

[Shayper]

I'm not working until new years eve. Got a 7-whenever shift.

DJing

 

[Behemoth]

Working today, Mrs Behemoth asked me no to goto work, considered it then she said actually no I best go in so grrr not overly happy to be here.

Very few calls - mainly those that are calling are whinging about stuff we have no control over.

 

[Lysander]

Yep, here I am at work again.

Pretty dead here at the moment. Thankfully I have an internet connection, should pass the time.

 

[anything I don't mind]

This is real nice, the law firms that we work at would not allow us to not come in today and tomorrow. We are permanents placed at the law firms and are considered staff in all ways but the paycheck and benefits. Everyone else in the building is not in but IT have to come in. Meanwhile all the law firm staff get 35 days holiday and **** loads of benefits but IT contractors get 20 days holiday. It realy is disgusting.

 

[Skidder]

It realy is disgusting.

Why?

Didn't you have an entire thread where people explained to you how you don't work for the law firm, you work for the IT company?

He also seems to believe that an, I'm sure very competent but entirely replaceable (if confused and somewhat militant), IT contractor, has equal value to a law firm as the lawyers who generate its revenues.
