Working Late
Another late night due to one of our sites being down. Three different circuits down, all at the same time. I’ve been on this conference call for hours now and I don’t expect it to be over anytime soon.
I was talking to one of my new guys I just hired and he’s sitting at home working and closing tickets. He said “years of night shift and VPN are like crack” and it’s true. The 1am conference call I had the time before last (last night) I closed about 50 tickets just waiting to join the conference call. We don’t really have “shifts” per say at work. We have our normal work day and if issues carry on throughout the night, then we sleep in and come to work late (like today). After 4 years and a handful of months, I’ve just gotten used to it.
Feeling like poop today, and tired. I’m supposed to do a sleep study to make sure I don’t have sleep apnea. Joy. I hate sleeping away from home, especially with a bunch of wires connected to my head. Maybe I’ll look like a robot.
