Good afternoon all. Three day work week for me this week before flying to Atlanta for a beer festival.
Nice.
Took off yesterday because of a wedding sunday night in South Jersey so getting back after the breakfast monday wouldn't be worth coming in for, but I didn't burn a vacation day since today I am working from 10am to about 4am tonight/tomorrow and then am working all weekend in Los Angeles. Had to book a quick emergency trip since my LA coworker is currently in Denver with my NJ coworker since there's major work there and then our latest server delivery from Dell is all wrong but can't wait for them to come back and fix, I need to go out immediately (but can't leave the NJ data center unmanned) so that's why it's happening over the weekend.
Honestly, I love it. I didn't need to burn a vacation day and will get a LOT of OT for doing a pretty easy job (it will be a lot, but it's easy) plus while in LA I can likely catch 311's concert in Hollywood. I had no other plans for this weekend so earning money and catching one of my favorite bands on the other side of the country on work's dime sounds like a win. (well I still have to pay for the concert, but my OT will more than make up for my personal costs to attend).
