Quit yer bitchin.

So if you went to college you’re supposed to work a regular 9-5? I guess I missed that memo.

Mon-Sat for me, usually 60 hours a week. I can take off whenever I want though no questions asked.

this thread give me a new appreciation for my job.

I’m noon-8pm Mon,Thurs,Fri - but I normally make what I call the “executive decision” and take off around 6:30pm with one of the work cell phones in case anything comes up.

I only work weekends when I’m on the road commissioning a new plant, in which case I love it because it gets me home faster.

Well since I had finished everything over the weekend, I’m going for a shoot / lunch today from 12-3. Yippy

There is no place like Texas… I have a Ruger revolver and semi-auto Walther sitting on my desk and no one cares.

They also gave me 4 1/2 days to use this year. \<3 LoL I’m such a cry baby.
