+++--==>Work Week Check<==--+++

In for two and a half days again starting tomorrow. I know so many people who parlayed this season into a twelve day or so break. We'll be at about 25% this week ... ah the lovely lack of yap awaits me.

Same sked. I also intend to adjust my regular level or effort down by 50%, if only to give myself something to grow on in the new year.

I will be working three days. Not one of your biggest Christmas fans, I will be anxious to get back. Hoping for a similar lack of yap at my office, but I prolly won't be so lucky.

Day care is closed, so I'm home. It's catch-up time for the office -- closed to the public, but open to employees -- so it's all clerical work, all the time. No thanks.

D-Dad is working a couple of days and taking a couple off. He's expecting it to be quiet at the office.

="Benjamin Grimm":2pdxzgzn]Who is Kong76? Over 1400 posts?[/quote:2pdxzgzn] On a record pace, but he'll get injured in July and it will cost him a chance for the record. Rockin' Doc Dec 28 2008 07:29 PM I go back to work tomorrow at 8 AM. I work Tues day and until 1 PM on Wdnesday. I have Thursday off, then work Friday. My partners on vacation (skiing in the Rockies somewhere) so that leaves me to man the fort. It shouold be a hoppin' place with the college kids still out on break. John Cougar Lunchbucket Dec 28 2008 07:51 PM My company initially dangled this Friday as a "carrot" off-day, given to those in the division that performed most above their plan in the quarter. But since all our divisions are getting killed they canceled the competition and gave everyone the day off. True story! Go New New Economy! metirish Dec 28 2008 08:12 PM I have in for Friday off so it's a three day work week. soupcan Dec 28 2008 08:13 PM Re: +++--==>Work Week Check<==--+++ ="Kong76":3kcchd8h]In for two and a half days again starting tomorrow.[/quote:3kcchd8h] You and me both Kongster.

And the best of the sad-sack divisions gets an off day anyhow. sharpie Dec 29 2008 07:50 AM We're closed from Christmas Eve through New Years so I'm back the 5th. metsmarathon Dec 29 2008 08:39 AM i'm earning my taxpayer dollars today and tomorrow, but wednesday and friday, those taxpayer dollars come at the cost of annual leave. metsguyinmichigan Dec 29 2008 09:16 AM I'm here every day but Thursday. Buy a newspaper. Any newspaper. Please. Benjamin Grimm Dec 29 2008 09:54 AM I buy two every day. And I plan to keep buying them until it's no longer possible. Even almost a decade into the 21st Century, I still think nothing beats a newspaper. RealityChuck Dec 29 2008 10:00 AM No work until January 5. The college shuts down for the break. dgwphotography Dec 29 2008 10:21 AM Off until the 5th... Looking forward to doing some winter cleaning... A Boy Named Seo Dec 29 2008 10:52 AM I'm working Mon-Fri, 12-hour days, like a sucker. I shoulda been home nursing this cold and sipping bourbon instead, but I couldn't say no to the sweet OT. metsguyinmichigan Dec 29 2008 10:54 AM ="Benjamin Grimm":vsn9jcc0]I buy two every day.

Kong76 Jan 04 2009 03:49 PM Back to the reality of the five day work week tomorrow! themetfairy Jan 04 2009 03:52 PM Early alarm clock and throwing the boys out the door in the dark resumes :(
