So, who else is working today?

kalmar · **Posted:** Fri Apr 10, 2009 12:25

I'm not on holiday but am off ill. Can I unite?

MaliA · **Posted:** Fri Apr 10, 2009 12:26

I'm revising. Well, should be. That's as close to working as i get nowadays.

metalangel · **Posted:** Fri Apr 10, 2009 12:27

Me. In since seven, but only in for another hour. Then off until Tuesday (but only because they're my rostered days off as opposed to any actual 'you don't need to come to work as it's a bank holiday'ness) so the weather better fucking improve.

I'm in Monday, too.

I'm supposed to be working monday too UNLESS I'M DEAD BY THEN BECAUSE THE FUCKING DOCTORS ARE ON HOLIDAY.

myp · **Posted:** Fri Apr 10, 2009 12:34

Oh, how convenient that you might happen to be ill when the doctors aren't open. Cry me a river.

MaliA · **Posted:** Fri Apr 10, 2009 12:36

LOL jobs.

I'm working today but I took a lot more money yesterday. I won't be working monday. But then I never do.

myp · **Posted:** Fri Apr 10, 2009 12:43

Easter Monday, or Mondays in general?

nickachu · **Posted:** Fri Apr 10, 2009 12:44

Im looking for either graduate Jobs or PhD's abroad... does that count?

I've got a Bank Holiday hangover (quite why I don't know, I didn't drink that much). Does that count?

Your contribution to this thread is over! Don't make me break out the blue and create a special BH workers' group.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Fri Apr 10, 2009 12:46

Yeah I've got the day off. Also last week. And the previous 12 months. And the foreseeable future.

I don't think you've thought this through. You holidayers have a whole forum to use. This is for we downtrodden Bank Holiday workers!

Don't make me create an announcement thread announcing that this is a thread for BH workers.

Just don't make me.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Fri Apr 10, 2009 12:49

I just scratched my balls and farted. Does that count as work?

myp · **Posted:** Fri Apr 10, 2009 12:51

Work, yes; hard work, no.

Keep it up, champ, and you'll get the second yellow star on your name badge.

I'm "working" today. It's blowing half a gale so I never went out, instead I sat gazing across the sea while mending my pots, smoking my pipe, drinking rum & singing songs about piracy.*

*Some of the above may be a lie.

Now I'm fixing some old guy's computer in exchange for beer.

I'm working today, but it's nice and quiet. </temptfate>

I would be working tomorrow and Sunday, but I've taken them off for birthday-related reasons.

MaliA · **Posted:** Fri Apr 10, 2009 12:56

I'm reading about knobbing underage girls.

More truthful? Less?

I think I've worked maybe one weekend or bank holiday in the last three years. Right now, I don't miss my shift work one iota.

Morte · **Posted:** Fri Apr 10, 2009 13:13

I mock you and your employed status.

Yeah, and no relish on the burger capiche?

myp · **Posted:** Fri Apr 10, 2009 13:21

What's a burger capiche? Is that like a breadcake bun?

Could be worse, this could happen.

Anyone working today? I am hungover to fuck and not enjoying my work day.

I suppose it makes up for all those times I wind you up about leaving three hours before you.

Malc · **Posted:** Mon Apr 13, 2009 11:05

I've been on call over the weekend. and have taken calls every day.

Should be in for some nice money for that £200 (for being on call) + 17.5 hours worth of pay (some double time, some time and half, and if I end up doing another 90 minutes or so today, that will go up some more)

Dimrill · **Posted:** Mon Apr 13, 2009 11:56

I bet you're going to be reet bored today cos this place has been as silent as the tomb over the weekend.

myp · **Posted:** Mon Apr 13, 2009 12:38

Good thing about today: Ange just brought me a nice lunch and we sat in the car park eating it.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Mon Apr 13, 2009 12:39

What about the lunch?

myp · **Posted:** Mon Apr 13, 2009 14:25

Hometime. Next stop, barbecue!

Let's just hope it comes back from the dead then. Like ZomBabyJeebus.

I've spent the entire weekend working on a game feature. 800 words and the laborious process of collecting screenshots still to come. *Sigh*.

Tuesday is my Easter. Then: another feature.

Both bank holidays worked here. But at least I get time and a half for it, for the last ever time before the company cut my pay.

myp · **Posted:** Tue Apr 14, 2009 7:57

I get triple time for mine; it doesn't mean I have to enjoy them, though.

myp · **Posted:** Mon May 04, 2009 8:41

Just me again, then?

KovacsC · **Posted:** Mon May 04, 2009 8:52

No i have a day off..

Going to spend the day car hunting

myp · **Posted:** Mon May 04, 2009 8:55

Stop looking, as I have a red Honda Civic Sport. Only £7k.

I think the insurance is a bit high on it, but it is the right sort of size of car now. ( The wife now wants a Golf or an Astra size)
