    Re: I don't want to work.

    You have no idea. Having 2 days off in a row literally feels like a vacation. I wake up Sunday morning SO PSYCHED that I have another full day off.

    You know, I've tried to get one that does hours and minutes so I can put it on my desktop, but nobody makes one that extends beyond 1 year. So, I have to do it manually. You can add 3 hours and 17 minutes to my original post....if you're interested.

    No freaking way. I've been bored off my ass all week, and now, an hour before my vacation, they decided to give me stuff to do.

    I can't believe this. I need to pawn this off on someone.

    Apparently your numchuck skills are up to par.

    I don't get a 3 day weekend.

    Re: I don't want to work.

    This week sucked. It was a crazy week, we switched around the way we do things, I was sick as a dog all week, the weather was lousy, the traffic was a pain all week.

    That said, I think I can endure the next 4 hours until quitting time.

    This weekend they will be breaking down the wall between our small work area (an Office and 6 Cubicles) and the small work area next door to expand our area, so we can hire more people. It will also make another Office available so that I can move from the cube farm to my own office. THAT is something to look forward to.

    Hoping the weekend is great for everyone!!

    My job sucks today. It's going to be a long 5 hours for me. I'm supposed to be writing documentation but have spent all morning doing diddly.

    My work is boring right now so the week has dragged on forever. I can't wait until I start another installation so I won't be so bored.

    5pm can't get here soon enough

    Re: I don't want to work.

    I'm back in the Friday thread this week. I tell ya, I wish I was in Florida like last week.

    I had monday off for MLK day, and yesterday off for Inauguration Day, but geez, it still seems like quite the long week.

    Some crazy stuff going on at work too is keeping me busy. Hopefully, that will mean that the day goes quickly.

    Today is gonna be so slow. My fiance promised an awesome night for me tonight. Between work and wedding planning stuff we've spent about an hour together over the last week and a half. I definately don't wanna work today. I want to go home. If my counterpart wasn't on vacation, I would have called in sick.

    The corp. that I worked for only had 120 employees but I was the only payroll person so it was a busy two months. I can't imagine keeping track of 25,000 employee records!

    Of course when I did payroll it was on an AS400, way before the days of Microsoft and windows. I used to have to do the 401k plan on spreadsheets in old Lotus 123 for DOS!

    Re: I don't want to work.

    Funny how this thead gets new life breathed into it about every 7 days. I've got a 3-day weekend coming up, so I'm getting psyched about that. My wife has 2 12-hour shifts coming up at the hospital so she's getting depressed right about now. Somewhat busy here for a Friday afternoon.......but not busy enough to neglect my posting duties.

    I work for an IT company, you would be surprised how many people still use AS400. Amazing really. People are so affraid of change.

    I am really glad its Friday. 4 hours of office time and 1 hour of lunch still to go!

    Just over 5 hours to go in this my third week fighting this freaking cold. Every time I start to feel a little better I take a step back. I've never been so sick I need to stay in bed, just crappy.

    Just over 5 hours to go, I can't wait.

    I've been busy this morning, but I can't wait for the weekend.

    I have nothing planned, but I just don't want to be at work. 5 hours to go, and I will take a 1 hour lunch too.

    Anyone have any exciting plans for the weekend?

    Re: I don't want to work.

    I have nothing special planned for the weekend - just some shopping and spending some time with my steady guy (indoors where it's warm and cozy).

    I'm seriously considering retiring in April. I have to meet with my financial advisor (who also happens to be my cousin), and he will let me know if I can afford it. I'm sure I'll be OK since I've been saving 15% of my salary in my company 401K for many years. That, plus my excellent pension, should be enough. I've been at this job for 35 years. It's been a good run, but I think it's time to go.

    Have a nice weekend everyone - stay warm.

    Wow... retirement. I've only been in the workforce a few years now (I'm 24), so I've got a long time before I think about that.

    Have a great weekend.

    If it's any consolation, the time passed very quickly. My advice - it's never too early to start saving for retirement. Invest as much as you can. That's what I did, and it has paid off. I'm only 54.
