I am considering leaving early also. I am all prepared to teach my class tomorrow so I don't have much left to do.

well seeing as I already have my layoff date, even if there were negative consequiences I wouldn't care....but there aren't any.

Leaving work early is the same as stealing from the company.
Chatting on internet message boards is the same as stealing from the company.
Having personal thoughts during work time is the same as stealing from the company.

They're gonna get you...

NO

Damnit !

I went home.....got high......then I get a call to come back in ! One of my backup systems has been failing on me, and I started getting alarms to my cell phone. I really hate backups....especially ones done on autloading DLT library machines !

So now I am back surfing ATOT as usual.

If you are the only one left on your team, wouldn't you have MORE work to do and not LESS?

yes...you are correct...but it just so happens that I had all of my work done for the day....or so I thought.

 

Better slack while you still can.
You probably won't have a job much longer.

 

[GroundZero]

just quit
