Ugh.

Who else has the normal 8 - 5 mon-friday job?

I am so sleepy!

Just a Monday morning mini rant!

I need a coffee, or a coke.

    I know what you mean...

    I'll be fine Friday/Saturday, falling asleep in Church on Sunday, and then still tired on Monday... Bleh.

    icon_neutral.gif Yeah, it's Monday. My eyes are barely awake, and it's raining outside. Yup, bad combination...

    Mondays are fine for me. I'm not any more tired on Monday mornings vs. any other morning, usually fine shortly after I'm out of the shower. I never used to be this way before my son was born though. And I never considered sleeping until 8AM to be "sleeping in" before then either :D

    Monday morning meetings!!! Yippie!!

    I usually go to bed around 1 AM and get up at 8 AM. My work hours are 10AM to 7PM.

    Beakfast is a protein shake with vitamins. Then if I feel like it, some coffee.
    And in conclusion your point was.....???

    Don't get so upset...it's just ones and zeros.

    Depends really. I had a long week last week, normal M-W were 8-5, Thursday was 8-7pm, Friday was 8-5pm then back from 11PM to 10:30am on Saturday then back on Sunday from 12-3:30PM. Back at work from 8am - 5pm (hopefully)

    Doing pretty good actually. Made sure to have a good breakfast and a coffee. ;)

    830-5pm here. Got good news and bad news here.

    Good news is boss is gone all week at conferences (extra study time for me).

    Bad news? NO A/C! Went down early this am, and the bldg manager never bothered to call when they noticed it. So everyone is sweating a lot. Supposedly someone will be here this afternoon.

    Good thing I have extra water bottles today.

    A/C finally back on. Bad sensor unit on another floor caused it to go out. Its down to high 70s now. Glad the servers survived.

    8-4:30 here. Mondays arent usually worse than any other day but there are some days that I just don't want to get out of bed. There is never any rhyme or reason to which day, it just strikes sometimes.

    I havn't had to stay after for a project in a while, but im sure it will come up soon. :-/

    Had a pretty chaotic monday as usual. Got in at 5am and did my usual walk through production making sure the 200 thin clients we have are up and running.

    During this time I get an emergency call about auditors coming this morning and a bunch of people lost their network access. I rush over and find all the ip phones dead...switch issue or something.

    Then I have to go troubleshoot why some engineers are having a hard time getting one of their apps to work properly(patran). I found they were trying to run it from a network location and it was running horribly slow...had to install it locally. Got calls about ip phones not working all morning until networking got them back up. X_x

    Got another call asking that I hurry and setup 6 managers with blackberries by the end of the day...but it takes around an hour to set each up, so I had to multitask to get them done quickly.

    Arranged appointments tomorrow morning with all the people who were pissed that I didn't have time to come see them today. :D

    Ugh, mondays. I have a headache.

    My hours are 9-5 but I also do consulting so I end up working an additional 15-20 hours during the week(end) for that. I'm thankful that I can do most of my work remotely.

    I work 0730 to 1600 daily. Unfortunately, we are not allowed to do over-time or weekend shifts. :/

    And use Mt Dew instead of milk.

    8-5 here. Just get on a sleep schedule and stick to it. No big deal.

    Peter Gibbons: Let me ask you something. When you come in on Monday and you're not feeling real well, does anyone ever say to you, "Sounds like someone has a case of the Mondays"?
    Lawrence: No. No, man. ****, no, man. I believe you'd get your ass kicked sayin' something like that, man.

    Gotta love Lawrence
