Blah... I just dropped off one of my partners for a 10 hour overnight shift at work... and the whole time home all I can think of is... it's fucking 2017.. the company they work for has and uses literally all of the tools that make this a super easy "work from home" or just oncall coverage time... but "We want someone in the building overnight". Dayshift is working from home though... just want to be like "Really guys? Fuck.... we are handling the holidays with a simple oncall rotation.."

@mawr​ How do you resist flopping over for sleepy cuddles when working from home?

Late stage capitalism (-----) 

@mawr I hate this... I despise foreign investments in residential properties in the US.. everything about is shitty and terrible

Quarterly Review: "Meets or exceeds expectations across all fields" Is there anything I could do better? "Uh no.. the rest of the team really looks up to your technical skills and willingness to help on pretty much anything. You've really stepped up over the last 11 months.. Just keep doing what you are doing!"

I guess this is a good thing. >.>

YES!!! MY PROPOSAL TO ALTER OUR ONCALL ROTATION SO THAT ONCALL ONLY GOT PAGED DURING OFF HOURS AND NOT WHILE OTHER PEOPLE ARE THE OFFICE MET WITH UNANIMOUS APPROVAL! Downside... I have to handle pagerduty from 4pm-7pm whether I'm oncall or not..

Upside.. no more being woken up at 5am because someone forgot to downtime a box they were working on!

Oncall rotation completed.... pager still had it's revenge though... 5 hours of sleep... thanks for the page 1 hour before my watch ended.

AIM IS DEAD... Feels wierd...

Aurora and I have been talking on for 7 years.. only person I still talked to over and we live together..

@mawr Aww... but you could be the tragic side character that could have stopped the founding of the Empire... (with more plush cuddles!)

Just think of the awesome future (I mean... we need something... this is like the worst timeline already)

@mawr Monarchies don't coalesce out of nothingness and no Dynasty was founded in a day!

(Plus like we totally need some cool Monarchy to oppose in the future for our retro-tech dystopian rebellion!)

What is this.... I actually got a full night's sleep while oncall....

Also my entire team is snowed in and gets to work from home :(

@mawr Could not decide if I wanted leftover curry or leftover jambalaya... so I made curryalaya....
It's not nearly as wierd as I expected

So tired.... 4 pagerduty phone explosions spaced during my prime sleep time.
