And now, back to reality

Every year either New Year's Day or the Saturday following (if they can wait that long) the company that I work for takes inventory.  It's the big year end inventory so numbers have to be accurate which sometimes can mean counting the same product two or three times.  Today is the day.  I would rather be doing ANYTHING other than counting inventory.  I don't remember this task being part of my job description but I am sure it is in there because they are pretty precise about such things.  At any rate, I have to be there at 6am (are they insane?!?) and may be finished by 10am...if all goes well.

So, while the rest of the world is enjoying sleeping in or a leisurely breakfast or some quiet time being productive in a studio, I will be counting cases of beer.  I seriously need to start playing the lottery.

  2. I hope your day was short. Did you get special pay for the day? I sure hope they made it worth your time.

    6am....hm...that's every day for me, for the past zillion years. I hate going to work that early, but I love having a long weekened every week...but then, a lot has to be done of Friday so I can 'play' on the weekend.

    Have a great Sunday!
