Stuck at work

Postby Danny » Wed Sep 07, 2005 11:19 pm

So i work 3rd shift. It is the most boring shift you can possibly imagine. Even though i'm makin money i feel that i am really losing out on some quality gaming time. This if further complicated by the fact that i was denied financing by both dell and alienware for a laptop capable of running DAoC. So here i sit for 6 more hours with nothing to do but think that i could be lvl 40 by morning if only i wasn't here. I guess it wouldn't be so bad but i still don't have access to Mid/Lamo boads. VN here i come.

Work has slowed to a boredom grind for me lately, so I feel your pain. I've almost tossed myself out of my 3rd story window a couple of times.

Your access is all set dan.

Lol @ Work.

Get drunk before you go in, that makes it entertaining sometimes.

I remember at 17 working 3rd shift as a night auditor for a hotel. I used to get lots of shut eye in the back room hehe....

Third shift I knew it well. For a while it seemed as if that was what I was deemed to do in life was work third shift.

Did it in Law Enforcement for the military and doing now for security job with a contractor. I actually enjoy third shift though and miss it now that I work a 7-3 job M-F.

Yes I said 7AM-3PM apparantly those are the hours our military bosses like so we work them. but I digress....third shift bro when working for LE i was working day shift at first and would recieve nothing but bullshit calls oh i ran into a deer, oh someone shoplifted from my store, oh go send a patrol to do traffic control for a major event blah blah you get the idea. But when I was working night shift I get things like this...oh i pulled over a drunk driver and guess what he is a high ranking officer (this was especially fun) or there is a fight at the base club and havoc ensued that was fun.

Anways I tend to not like the political aspect of my job and liked the down and dirty real work. Playing pretty and just sitting around to look good during day shift pissed me off on nights you deal with NO ONE except maybe your co-worker who half the time was asleep lol.

long post sorry.

Well i appreciate all the replys i'm out of that prison at the moment but in another... Tech College. One more semester and i'll have my degree then i can finally get the job i want as a cop not some bullshit hotel security officer. God i hate being turkey bacon, i want to be real bacon. But then again the hotel i work at was the one the Tery Ratzman guy went on a shooting spree at and killed 8 or 9 people like a year ago. I like to go in that room at night and see if anything weird happens like objects levitating or my head suddenly spinning 360 degrees like a top. So far nothing. BTW seventhorn where r u a cop at. I got a job offer at a little podunk police department as a part time cop once i get my 60 creds and pass the 13 week academy. Unfortunatly i now have to withdraw from the army DEP program and i owe them like 5000 bucks. Man they are gonna be pissed at me.

I was a military cop with the Air Force. Security Forces they called us. Did both securtiy and law enforcment but more of the latter.

Good thing you got a job as a police on the outside. Im sure you owe them 5000 bucks because they gave you 5000 bucks for a bonus or some shit. In that case im sure the job at the Army was a shitty one cause they only offer bonuses to new people on shitty jobs and higher bonuses to the great jobs to retain them go figure.

It never works out though cause you can almost always make a ton more than the bonus would pay on the outside. Your better bet is to pay the army back their money and NOT join the military. Iraq is not fun atm.

lol, your job sounds an awful lot like mine Adida.

I need to research which old games are worth e-baying :)

I'm the boss tho and I pretty much hate all my employees.

Too bad corporate office frowns on public executions!
