I really do like this tea. So mellow and smooth. Today wasn’t a bad day at work really, just long. I tried to punch in at 6:45am but the system for telecommuters was down. It came up around 8:15. While I was waiting for it to come up I brewed a pot of this tea and knitted while sitting at the computer, staring at the blank screen. I worked until 6:30 (overtime sucks until you get the paycheck) and now am thinking of going to bed early. If work 10 hours tomorrow I can have my required 7 hours of overtime in by 1pm on Friday. Then a nice lazy weekend.

If the system is down do you still get paid from when you tried to start working? Or do your hours just get pushed back?
We get paid for the time the system is up. If we were in the office we would still get paid because there would be other things we could do like filing or going through manuals to mark sections that need updating. When we work from home we can’t do anything without the computer so we don’t get paid. Part of me is grumpy about that, but I suppose it’s fair, since I sat and knitted.
Totally empathize with the OT sentiment. Working on what will be a 55 hour week myself. Hate the doing it but the check will be nice.
Holy moly, Nicole, and here I am whining about a mere 47 hours! Hugs. The paycheck should be nice.
Ugh that is so frustrating. :/ I can also kinda see their point, but it’s not like it’s your fault that their system isn’t working when it’s supposed to be.
Nicole, I wish you the best! That’s super tough.
