why the fuck do we work so early? is there ANYONE you know who wouldn't want to start work at like 10 or 10:30 or whatever? why are we still clinging to the antequated tradition of waking up early to go to work?

In my case the building has to open early so I have to be here early and etc. FDafgads;ghga

I got to work at 10 today. I suggest you find a job in the comforting, though low-paying, world of academia.

spoken like a man who didn't sleep last night

The support staff on campus would question this. And rightfully so.

Ned Raggett, Friday, 13 April 2007 20:05 (seventeen years ago) link

I slept last night and I'm fading fast.

Laurel, Friday, 13 April 2007 20:06 (seventeen years ago) link

my body is doing really weird things right now.

chicago kevin, Friday, 13 April 2007 20:06 (seventeen years ago) link

I get out of bed at 8:15 and am at work by 9:30. Of course, I'd almost always rather sleep in another hour, but it's not too bad.

xpost tourette's?

kenan, Friday, 13 April 2007 20:09 (seventeen years ago) link

it's just weird.

chicago kevin, Friday, 13 April 2007 20:10 (seventeen years ago) link

if i didn't have to be at work at nine, it would only encourage me to stay up later, so it wouldn't really affect my mood or energy level one way or the other. Plus, I like going home at 5-6 o'clock.

kenan, Friday, 13 April 2007 20:15 (seventeen years ago) link

OK I have nothing in my inbox right now. I wouldn't care except I have to account for my time, so I guess I should go looking for more work to do.

jaymc, Friday, 13 April 2007 20:16 (seventeen years ago) link

HELP ALLY ALEX SOMEONE COME BACK GAWD

Laurel, Friday, 13 April 2007 20:22 (seventeen years ago) link

ally quit early too and as far as i know she's frosting cupcakes or napping or something right now

ghost rider, Friday, 13 April 2007 20:25 (seventeen years ago) link

best thing about restaurants: working from 4pm to 10pm or midnight or whenever. Then staying up 'til 5am and still getting a solid seven hours of sleep.

milo z, Friday, 13 April 2007 20:26 (seventeen years ago) link

or getting her cupcakes frosted

Dear DC,

Chicago was my friend first--please stick with your own kind and leave my people alone.

Thanks,

A lonely Chicagoan in Michigan.

I'm sorry. I was just lonely ,so I lashed out. :(

Jesse, Friday, 13 April 2007 21:11 (seventeen years ago) link

hi, i was going to come on this thread sometime and ask pete 69 about getting yr credit card number stolen. though maybe it's mostly chicagoans today anyway.

turns out that i had two UPS packages stolen from my building's lobby the same afternoon that somebody went crazy with my cc #. there wouldn't have been a cc number on the receipts, but that's a bit too coincidental for my tastes. i know that my cc company will work things out and i did the fraud alert thing, but it's kinda worrying.

JuliaA, Friday, 13 April 2007 21:18 (seventeen years ago) link

I only came on this thread because that's where everyone else was.
