      I'm going to get in a little bit of trouble today. . .

      I had 3 am work calls come in that I did not wake up to.

      got one voicemail from my boss telling me I gotta wake up for these.

      Woke up for the 5 am call from the same site and it was fixed..

      happy Hump Day.

      Uhm, people have to sleep at some point. You're not a 24/7/365 machine. Even when we're on call, between 10pm and 5:30am, we're off the hook. (Pun intended.)

      one would think, everyone gets 24 phone support..

      Maintenance ends at 10:00pm Saturdays..

      I'm sure I'll get talked to about it today, and I'll use the only excuse I have.
      Im human.

        Don't forget to bring up the "If I'm expected to answer my phone at all hours, then legally, I must be paid to work for all hours that I'm expected to be available. So why are you talking to me about this before getting legal matters handled through HR?"

          The way it works , as it was explained to me : we get standby pay for a straight 8 hours, then every hour we work, we get paid 1.5 (as long as it's after 40)

            ugh. we have a federal election coming up. we can choose between a wet sponge sitting in a bucket of lard or a discarded cigarette butt floating in a polluted creek.

            There should be an option for us to sack the lot and start again on the ballot slips.

              Looks like all flights into Dallas have at least a little delay from the storm.

                    Surprisingly I didnt get in trouble. Boss has just been a sarcastic ass since he walked in the door.
                    Called my phone from his desk to make sure it rings. etc.

                            Yeah, I'd ask where you're hiding, but I know where everyone is heading right at the moment.

                              @DustinB3403 Im on NAtional Grid and I've lost power what maybe 5 times in the last 2 months. Last windy day you could see the transformer on the pole 2 houses down arcing. Can't get an actual person to talk to always their automated outage system. Finally today, we have power and I noticed 2 trucks outside the house as I was leaving maybe they'll finally replace the transformer or the leads. Just got alerts from my home UPS power's out so we'll see

                                        Why not? Just because it isn't normally associated with breakfast? Bah.
