Your title is pretty misleading.
I'm AT work.
However, I'm hardly WORKING.

The phones have been pretty quiet, most other people have off, only one outage right now and it's out of our hands (ISP's trouble). I'm basically sitting here keeping myself busy by cleaning the NOC area, reviewing open tickets and making sure there's nothing else I can do with them and waiting for the magical 2:30 to come around... yippie...

Sounds almost identical to what I'm doing at the moment. Although this morning I had a flurry of calls, but right now it's quiet. Of course I shouldn't say that and jinx myself

Working...I would be working from home but I did that the past 2 days cause my parking deck was solid sheet of ice except for the snow on top of which my car was stuck.

Anyway I get out at like 12....and I'm doing 2 little updates to some web sites and browsing the TB.

I'm stuck working until 4...blah...
out of an international crew of about 20, it's just me and a bud in London today and he's leaving in about 30 mins..so I'll be the last lone poor sucker working tech issues after that. There will INEVITABLY be a guy from India calling at 3:59. It never ever fails.

I'll be here at work until 4:30. Unless they decide that it's slow enough to let some staff go home.

Just got a call from my wife, last week her supervisor had scheduled her to work a 7-4 shift, possibly getting out earlier (she usually works 8:30-5:30). Apparently someone screwed up and now, after coming in at 7, she has to stay until 5:30. She and one other person are literally the only two people in an entire company working. So everyone else got let out at 12 and she has to stay later than on a normal day.
Boneheads!!!!
