Everyone in my office operates on differing schedule preferences. Some like to begin the torture..I mean work...early in the morning, others delay it until noon. But everyone works late. Are you seeing the flaw in the logic yet?
One of my co-workers and I share very similar work habits. We start work early. And I mean early. I once had someone make a comment that I was running late when I stopped to get breakfast at 730am as opposed to 630am...We harass each other about our work habits, but always end up agreeing that we are like the blind leading the blind.
In order to remain sane in the face of obscene non-overtime rewarding hours, this co-worker and I make jokes...what follows is a normal conversation:
5:45am PST/ 8:45 EST (I (A) am in NY. My co-worker (K) is in CA)
K: Morning
A: Go back to bed!
K: Hahaha...You're one to speak miss
A: I know...I have no pull on that one
K: Blind leading the blind, right? How it's always been
A: Why rock the boat?
K: Exactly. All that can happen is you get wet.
A: Swimming blind is never good. You could get eaten by a whale.
K: And let's face it, after Jonah, the whales decided to not let the puny lil humans get away so easily next time.
A: And after the Pinocchio fiasco they held a 10 day training on how to properly eat humans
K: No more of this amateur stuff. Gotta meet up to the rigorous standards set by the Whales Ingest Low Level Youth
A: '82 was a year of reform after the strike of '81 thus creating the Nautical Emergency Mediation Operation
K: Which of course drew from the post second world war establishment know as the Mediterranean & Ocean Baleen Yodelers (obviously the Swiss were involved). Unfortunately it was some time until the Debating International Court of Krill recognized it, thus limited it's power until NEMO
A: Currently behind closed doors, a new committee is being formed: Freedom After Nasty Tsunamis Alter Sea Inhabitants Association of 2000, thus aiming to give the whales special privileges for aiding their fellow oceanic neighbors.
K: Which is a great organization, especially after such disastrous occurrences by human kind. An investigation by The International Trans Arctic Navigable Iceberg Committee showed that people are, well, stupid.
We're nerdy and we know it ;)
