Anyone else?

Bleh...just feel so tired and sh!tty... Monday's suck...i didn't want to get out of bed and now I'm stuck and bored.

What do you guys do when you're just having 'one of those days'?

Broke up (got dumped) with my girlfriend a week ago and been trying to fill my time and mind as much as possible to not get too down and its exhausting and i'm just worn out. Don't really know how to get out of the funk.

I feel a tad lethargic today, and its been an incredibly boring morning. I haven't done anything since I got here at 8:30am!

Crappy day. High pressure (= headaches for me), kitchen is being painted so I'm breathing in toxins. I had a crappy night of sleep. The day sucks.

leave work and go to sleep on sick leave. Rest up, and hopefully tomorrow you will feel better. No use feeling worse while doing nothing on the job.

I know the feeling...haven't found a good solution yet. Just wish that there were more to do most days. Generally the work I'm assigned could be (and should be by any mildly effective worker) completed in 15 minutes of an 8 hour day...leaves me with 7:45 minutes of trying to find something else to do...

You're working, on a workday? Geez, poor guy. When I'm at work I don't even have time to bitch about it.

That was my plan when i rolled in this morning. I thought, I'll give it a good couple hours and just go get myself right. But we had one of our people call in sick and they need me just to cover the phones that aren't ringing. Lame.

Guess you have time to bitch about people bitching about it, though, huh?

Man, fifteen minutes? What sort of work do you do, if you don't mind me asking?

design and implementation of SAN environments. Neither the job itself nor the company I actually work for are really the problem though. I work for EMC (storage vendor), but I'm on a contract with a client and the client is hopelessly unable to get past their infighting and management issues...

1 and a half years (well closer to 1 and 3/4 years but that sounds lame).

I'm right there with you today Grant, had to drive ~8 hours this weekend doing the easter thing with the family.

I'm thinking about the past too much today after a conversation I had last night, best advice is to just let it go.
