Sit down..
Log previous person out and log myself in. Set my division screens up.
Sign into the Radio.
Check all the crews and RRVs are on duty that were booked on before me coming in at 7.
Begin checking the next lot of crews due on at 7. (am or pm depending on what shift i'm working!)
Assigning jobs as they come in.
Gas with colleagues.
Assign more jobs.
Rinse repeat untill break time :D

Sounds like my working life too!

You forgot 'argue with colleagues when they steal my resources unnecessarily' and 'confirm for crews that they really are the closest vehicle to that emergency'....

Makeup, hair, get dressed? :D
You take a lift to/from 4th floor?? Take the stairs like I do, you lazy bugger!!
 
Up at 5:30, feed/play with the new kitty! Put the radio on (BBC R4), put some porridge on and maybe some toast, or have cereal. Slip into my lycra, out of the door usually 6:45-7am. Lock my bike in the back. Head upstairs and put either porridge or toast on for my second breakfast ;). Shower, get changed. Settle down with a coffee, read emails and start the day.

working from home has its advantages.........................
 
Open door to office, walk downstairs to my desk. Take off coat. Take phone out and put it on desk, take iPad mini out and put it on desk, take laptop out and put it on desk and fire up. Take mouse off charger and turn PC screen on (PC is always left on so I can remote into it).

Grab a drink of Apple and Blackcurrant squash using filtered cold water.

Sit at desk - check if anything urgent has come in if so deal if not, have a chat, check emails and have a quick forum check.
 
Grab a takeaway coffee from Starbucks
Walk through the park (looking at all the happy dogs running around)
Get into my office
Dump bag on floor
Get MBP out
Get chargers out
Connect phoen and ipad to MBP
Switch everything on
Connect MBP to external screen

This is one of those threads where no one will read your post, and will just post their own bit. I know because this is what I have done.

Walk in, pause audio book, hang up jacket/hoodie. Peppermint and licorice tea in my special mug. Chat rubbish with the colleagues while tidying up loose ends from the day before. Work.
 
I run my hands through my hair, they are slick with guilt. Does she know? Could she know? Is today the day she finds out I am cheating on her?

The last few months have been a roller coaster, the excitement, the passion! such feelings should be rejoiced. But instead I feel an emptiness creeping in. The place in my heart which used to feel so comfortable, is now an inferno of wild emotions.

It feels like I've swapped my old car for a brand new one, but the old car won't stop looking at me like I've ripped it's heart out.

I'm sure she knows something is up, how could she not? these long hours where I pretend I am working, when in fact I am just making excuses.

How can something so wrong feel so right?

Windows 7, I'm sorry, but Windows 8 is here.
 
Sit down, log on, eat nutrigrain bar for my breakfast, check a few websites then start being awesome for the next 8 hours.
