Nobody here?

[DJ Doena]

Good Morning!

Last day of my three-weeks vacation, just the weekend and then I have to go to work again on Monday.

[Tom]

On working days, I usually get up between 7 and 8 am. I come back from work usually between 6 and 7 pm.
And go to bed between 1 and 2 am.
I am only visiting the forums when I am at home.
My movie watching is usually in the evenings or on weekends.

Also for me it is the last day of my three-weeks vacation (and I have still five vacation days from last year left ).

[DJ Doena]

That's it. 7 minutes to midnight and my vacation is over. From tomorrow henceforth I will go to work again, do about 8 hours of nothing and get paid for it.

My vacation is now also over
Sadly (or luckily), I have about 8-9 hours of too much to do at work.

That sound like a nice job to me

I was wondering what he was complaining about too...

Not when you've done that for two years. I sit in an office with about 30 people and not with cubicles like in the american office movies. So many people can watch over my shoulder and see what I am doing or not doing.

That's like me at the moment, though not for two years. I do the computer support but the company was taken over last year and their IT Director is steadily dismantling my network around me. Why? I don't know. It achieves nothing, and essentially he had been given a domain based Exchange thin-client network for free. Now we're on standard PCs, the idiot. But whatever his reasons, it leaves me with very little to do. Perhaps that's his reason...

So what should you be doing, Karsten? Why do they pay you to pretend? 

[DJ Doena]

I am supposed to program one functionality of the successor of this huge software project.

It's a relatively small part and we are often weeks ahead of everyone else and that means waiting for them.
