I was supposed to put in 8 hours OT tomorrow, but ownership decided today to close at 7am. A cost cutting move, I guess.

I'll work again Friday, then have the weekend off.

(Also get off 2 hours early on the 31st, and off the 1st.)

Taking Vacation days tomorrow and Friday, and get Thursday, Sat. and Sunday off.

Wow.

Yeah. They're not docking anyone's vacation, or sick time either. I've never seen anything like it. I was just offered a bunch more money to jump ship, and I'm about to turn it down. How much is honesty, and integrity worth? I don't know, but I think I'm about to find out.

Too much, considering I don't get paid for it. I do have a side project I'll be working on next week to make a few bucks.

Yeah. I would be. I don't expect much, but a couple of 4 day weekends to end the year are a much needed recharge. I didn't expect it to turn into 2 weeks.

I get a full day off for xmass and new years day. The company decided to ditch holiday parties and instead give everyone half days on xmass eve and new years eve.

I have no paid leave time left so I won't be taking any additional time off.

Bob Dole left work last Friday at 5pm and won't go back until 1/5 at 8am.

Had to burn 20 hours of leave to get that uninterrupted block, but it's worth it.

That's how my deal is. I'm a contractor and I don't work for weeks then get several jobs all at once. I love it. I get bored laying around the house.
