Leave for work in about a half hour.. only working 5hrs today though. Yesterday and Monday I probably put in a good 12hrs each day though.

It's Wednesday which is not a holiday. Why do you consider it "stuck"?

My company is nice enough to give us Friday off though.

It's about an average day here, maybe a few less people that started early. We normally get dismissed early at 3 pm, which is the normal time I leave anyway. So the 8 o'clockers get out 2 hours early, I work a full day. Go me. I'll be back here on Friday too, though nearly everyone else in the building will be gone.

same here, i work 1st shift 5-2 and they always let people go at 2
so i get to work my 8 hours and everyone else who comes in at 6,7,8,9 get off early

bah

Normal day for me, but I have Friday off. About half my department is out, but they've been out all week for vacation.

I should have mentioned I work for a school, which isn't in session. Schools have it off (as well as our gov, state and local offices), so many people are home. I know it is a ghost town here, which is why I consider it stuck. I haven't done a thing today except watch a movie.

I'm an American living in Europe....*sniff* just another day over here AND tomorrow. I can't even watch the football cause I'm 6 hours ahead and everything starts too late and I gotta get outta bed in the morning around 445/500am. 4th of July is worse.

Looks like we can get out at 2pm today. I took Friday off so at least I have a 4-day week. Most users are gone so I cannot close the tickets that I have open so looks like I will be surfing the net or remoting into my home computer to screw around till 2pm.

Working away, just a normal day, though I did come in a couple of hours late. I'll make that up by leaving early though. :p

doesnt European companies give a lot more holidays and vacation days than American companies?

working today too but i work from home so it's not too bad. I volunteered to work tomorrow since we provide 24/7 support but they already had enough volunteers so they told me i had to be off.

work will probably be slow today anyway. it was pretty slow yesterday but it also seemed to drag on forever.
