No one decides to come to work but the bookkeeper.
I work for a private school and during the summer there are 6 ppl. I along with my colleague, run the IT department. Mind you NOTHING happens during the summer, yet we have to be around in case the 4 ppl that are here has any trouble. GRRRRR...

So today, I found out it's just me, the bookkeeper and two maintenance men. We get out every Fridays at 1pm, but today I will be staying late. SUCKSSSSSSSSSs

Are you getting paid?

If you are don't whine. It'll be easy to kick back and rake the dough in.

I can't complain, you're right, since I can sit here and sharpen my *nix skills.
I need to convert our school's website to PHP, but I'm too lazy. LOL
I work better at night when i'm home.

So you work in the IT department for a private school and have NOTHING to do over summer? Something is wrong in your department then.

I worked for the Catholic Diocese school district. There was 2 of us supporting 43 schools (about 3000 workstations and 43 servers).

We didn't have enough time in the day to get everything we needed to get done over summer break.

The summer is when you do all your work.......... work hard over summer, enjoy the benefits of less problems during the school year.......
