I'm stuck on YOUR version of night shift for the next several months.
Then I will rejoin the land of normal chaos, and not chaos with guns and rude locals.

welcome to page three.
I'm really bitter and peeved right now, if you all can't tell.
Watching "warehouse 13" addicted...
Page 9 for me...
So, how is it going in Afgan?
The bastards just stuck me on the night shift. I'll be here till I find something else.
Security job?
Great showQuote:

it was over 100 degrees when i got done with my morning jog today.
We keep trying to convince ourselves that it's not that hot by converting everything into Celsius, and then saying, oh... well... it's only 41, and that's not THAT bad....
I guess by now I'm just really nostalgic for America. America really is so much more advanced of a place than this.
it's different strokes for different folks.... it's either lots of clicking (to get to new pages) or lots of scrolling (to get to the bottom of pages)...
click, scroll!

Sorry, my job is demanding my attention more than it usually does at this hour of the night. [Rant1]Quote:

Looks like we'll be clouded/rained out again tomorrow night, so I'll get another week or two ahead.
Oh yea, every 15min, I'm checking the local firearm forum (in souther new mexico) in hopes that someone is interested in buying my Savage Mark II-F for $120. Been listed for over a week, 128 views and not a single person contact me about it. No lowballs either! [Eek2]
I think I'll probably bump it up tomorrow and include a free box of Winchester 555 ($19 value) with it. I'm planning on buying a Savage Mark II-FV after I sell the Mark II-F, and after waiting a week I'd rather just take a slight hit on the price than wait any longer to order the Mark II-FV. And here I thought it was EASY to sell a $120 .22lr rifle. [Shake]

What line of work are you in that you get clouded out?
Yea, thanks. I think its partly that the forum is kind of based in a town of 30k and there aren't that many people on the board. Hopefully including the brick of ammo tomorrow will sell it.
I'm an Telescope Operator, observing on a survey-driven 2.5m telescope. When skies are clear, we point the telescope at the sky, collect the data on our choice of pre-selected fields. Once we meet the minimum data quality threshold, we move onto the next field. Some nights we can observe as many as 9,000 objects (about the max we can do). Other nights, like tonight, nothing.
Awesome job! Any chance you're heading down to Okie-Tex or do you get enough observing in at work?Quote:

Welcome to the night crew.
night crew!!1 wooo!!!!!
Okay night crew, I'm going to bed. G'night!
Anyone here from the night crew?
Pulling my watch :)
For a minute.
Ha! We do the same thing...I'll be in the plane doing an engine run, and I have to set the torque bugs. I'm sweating my butt off, twisting a knob to set the outside air temp and it's 38. Not bad sounding, if I wasn't in a damn greenhouse doing it...sun beating in, and the only air movement is the avionics cooling fans exhaust...[ROFL1] I'd love to turn the A/C on, but I'm doing a max power run and I have to leave the engine bleeds OFF! AAARRGGHHH!!!!!Quote:
