    here's the good thing about working today, though (and I have the same philosophy during Thanksgiving/Christmas time). There's no one else around. I usually have 5 other people around me working and today, there is just one other person. And there are less people from other departments to make requests of me, so I will probably have a leisurely yet productive day.

    In my line of work it's less people around so more for you to do to help pick up the slack. Here's to tomorrow being the weekend! :drinker:

    I have to work since it is the end of the quarter. Since I have closed all of my financials out before the 4th, I am getting paid today to waste time on the internet.

    Working, but to be honest I'm not complaining. I tend to be more focused on my diet when I'm at work.

    I'm a slave to the state government... and half my office is gone, thus why I'm stuck here manning the phones all day by myself. Yippee.

    I'm the only one in my building today. All the doors and gates are locked and I'm trying really hard to be productive. So far, I'm just not feeling it.

    Usually I love these quiet days, especially at the end of the fiscal year, but today's a total "meh" day for me.
