My job.

Today, i got to work at 8am, left at 11am, n now I'm back for the nite....5pm to 8am. How sweet is that?? A total of 18hrs shall be spent here and the truly sad thing is that, i usually have the time of my life working at nite. No phones ringing, no bosses screaming down at me, no irritating customers to be served coz they think that i'm not doing shit n should drop down at their knees n beg n plead them to buy!!

Oh, n i don't do desk work.A nite shift is spent outside with the elements (which is why the freaking clouds are putting a damper on my day). Never been good at desk work. They say that that is where the money is, and where growth is, but if growth means shifting my bum from one chair to another on a higher floor, then i'd rather not. Did the accounts and programming fields (programming is very cool as a pass time exercise), but the engineering field...damn!!That's where the action is at. The day i put my name on my first patent (even if i'm broke as hell), that shall be it for me.....self actualisation. Then after that, i can probably retire to perching my cute tushy at a desk job, where the most exciting thing will be my first papercut (i hear those are nasty...but until u get abit of acid dripping on you on a regular basis, then it's probably just child's play).

The night is quiet, n peaceful. The additional 7hrs of work means that i can be more thorough with my work, which i thoroughly enjoy. The silence and sterility of the lab contrasting with the screeching, grease and exhaust fumes of 3 tonne motors is magical.

Time to get grease all over me!!
