    I used it as another hour to be passed out before the sun awoke me from my drunken stupor. Who am I kidding - my bedroom doesn't have any windows...

    I woke up early because I forgot it was daylight savings time, so I came into work and looked at my computer and it was an hour behind, I was pretty ........ed cause I was at work early. I went into my office, crawled under my desk and went to sleep with my pager set to wake me up in 2 hours. It was odd falling asleep at work but hey, what else am I going to do im a network admin????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????

    Sleep is not only fun, but neccessary.

    Sleep is my second favourite passtime to programming.

    I worked. But here's the thing. I clocked in
    at 10:00pm...work...work...work. Clocked out
    at about 3:00AM. That's only 5 hours, right?
    Wrong. It should've been 4:00am, but the stupid
    time-clock was set back while I was working!!!
    What the heck? They better have payed me for
    that hour that they took away... It's a
    conspiracy!!!

    eh, I'm trying to work up the courage to
    quit anyway.

    >It's a conspiracy!!!

    hmmm... i realize that when i went to work this morning, instead of telling them about the clock, i could have left it and have possibly had everyone be fooled and laughed like this: "muahahaha"... [again: "muahahaha"]... dang... ah well, someone tell me when the next savings time is again so i can work and do it... well bye bye...
